    Makes you think something suspicious is going on. Tickets are being sold from the venue tomorrow. And news of his opponent only came out today. By the time they go and buy tickets, no one would know that hes not fighting the American. And hes in fact fighting an Argentinian. So they buy the tickets anyhow. And Geales team don't have to pay this guy squat and maybe Eduardo gets a little present to keep his mouth shut? And if anyone asks, yeh the fight was actually going to happen at one point? But it wasn't. Smart business?:patsch

    "Fight card subject to change without notice."

    The promoters safety net. Look for it in small print everywhere.

    from Ray Wheatley's site:

    Geale’s manager Bill Treacy said.”Reuque will be a good test for Daniel after his fight with Mundine. We tried to get world rated middleweights Billy Lyell and Daniel Edouard but they declined substantial offers to come to Australia to fight Daniel. We are confident Geale will defeat Reuque but we are not taking him lightly. He has a good record and he has knockout power. Graham Shaw has Geale in great shape and I am sure he will be impressive on October 21″.

    Comments: Keep it!!

    Exactly how much $$$$$ did Geale's camp offer Daniel Edouard ? Mostly likely chickenfeed because why on earth would Edouard not want the fight ? There is 2 sides to every story. I can't understand why anyone would buy this PPV at all. Joke fight after joke fight.

    Exactly. Its bull****. The fight was never on the cards. Geales camp is a joke for doing this.

    It probably made for good promotion at the time.
