He was regarded as very dangerous and hard to hit..GGG just walked him down with ease and then called out all the 154ers to 168ers,basically smashed himself on the scene...
:rofl at the aussie posters on here who think geale goes all calzaghe on golovkin, who by reading the posts of people who think Geale would win, think Golovkin is nothing more than a predictable plodder with huge power. If he was, sure Geale would win. But the people here don't see it or don't want to see it. Golovkin has a great boxing brain and great ring smarts. If Geale elects to get technical he will come off second best. If he elects to slug it out he will painfully come off second best. Saying it now, Golovkin is the only guy to hang with Ward at 160-168. Not saying he would beat him but it would be very competitive. If Golovkin goes up to SMW and destroys a 6'4, full blown, solid chinned Thomas Oosthuizen on January 19th then its going to make the worlds middleweights even more shitless to fight him than they are now.
Noone said hes a predictable plodder, but Geale has a good chance of beating him. Geale loves power punches, and though yes, ggg sets his shots up well, Geales speed and pace will frustrate GGG. If youve ever watched Geale in with a puncher, you would see how comfortable he is with them.
Golovkin has not fought anyone of Geales caliber, your dreaming mate take your attitude to the pool room. GGG displayed a defense not dissimilar to swiss cheese in his last outing. The Pole was a limited fighter and was hitting GGG at will. Terrible defense, he will get exposed against the quality of Geale :hi:.
STOP IT, geale has not fought anyone that hits as hard as golovkin atsch and golovkin wont get frustrated by geales movement, he will cut the ring off and tee off at him, geale has good footwork and decent head movement but he is no pernell whittaker. He dosent have some world class resume anyway he beat a paper champ in sylvester who was beaten with ease by proksa. An sturm was on the slide and had been coming off hard fights against murray and macklin (with the latter beating sturm more comprehensivley than geale).
You missed the point. It doesnt matter how hard GGG hits. Every puncher hits hard if you stand in front of them. Geale wont. Thats right, he's no whitaker, HE'S THE REAL DEAL GEALE. Cutting off the ring, pffft, that domestic talk, these guys can move and score at any angle, against the ropes, on the back foot, etc etc, its world class middleweight boxing mate:roll: Thats right, HARD fights with murray and macklin, and Geale beat him with ease:yep
macklin beat sturm more comprehensivley just never got the W, geale is a good boxer, but golovkin beats him imo
Yep fair enough, youre entitled to your opinion. Would be an awesome fight. From what ive seen, GGG seems real good at reading the next move of his opponent to set up a bomb. Geale is real good at throwing off his opponents timing with slick movement and capitalising on the mistakes it creates. I would love to see this fight.
Good question. Todays Mundine would get ktfo. Mudine 8 years ago would most likely take a points win.
WTF??? They gave him 90 days, then took it off him in 60 days. How does that equate to him throwing it in the bin??? There was an attempt at getting this fight to happen. It even went to purse bid. GGG's team did not bid or make an attempt to get a promoter to get it to happen.
By taking the Mundine fight and rejecting a fight with GGG he has esentially thrown the title in the bin. If it went to purse bid then where was Geale and his Team? Geale would have good grounds for a protest if GGG nor his people never showed upto the purse bid and Geale was able to demonstrate that he did everything possible to meet his mandatory obligation.
