    From the scene. GGG has offered him a chance at his old title. Will Geale take the fight or perhaps the Sturm-Soliman winner?

    If I'm Geale I'd take the money fight w/Sturm

    Geale should stay the **** away from GGG if he knows what's good for him.

    I honestly don't see the Geale-Golovkin fight happening 2013. A Sturm rematch is still big money and after that Gary Shaw will insist on getting a US debut for Geale against someone like Macklin or Barker.

    Did he not say he would be coming back to reclaim what is rightfully his from Golovkin, it will be interesting if he is true to his word. The IBF throwing up the Sturm-Soliman Winner as mandatory (they seem to be **** hot at enforcing fights) could throw a convenient spanner in the works and give Geale a readymade excuse.

    Another domestic showdown payday with Soliman if he wins. If Sturm wins, I'd say no to fighting him again, especially in Germany, and would make my move to America and HBO, where a fight with Macklin would be my priority or Barker if I wanted a slightly softer touch.

    I think Barker takes Geale. He wasn't doing too bad with Sergio until he got caught.

    .........and people wonder why GGG is fighting the rosado's and
    Ishida's of boxing. Geale fighting sturm, in Germany, again?
    Or old ass featherfisted had 1,000 world title shots underservedly
    Sam Soliman? Quillen fighting Cab drivers and Sergio taking sturm leftovers?
    Geez, what a bunch of punks. GGG is the middleweight champ until
    one of these posers wants to challenge him. **** the RING belt.
    It means about as much as the ABC belts now.

    Shaw is asking IBF to put on hold Geale fighting Solimon/Sterm winning so Geale can have a unification fight vs GGG.

    Thats whats being reported in Australia anyway.

    Inexplicably Soliman was the IBF #1 mandatory (well spent bribe money for Shaw :lol:) but Sturm managed to lure Soliman into a fight probably with a nice payday so if Sturm wins he'll be the IBF mandatory. Im assuming Geale has 9 months before he has to fight them though, if he sets up a fight against the Sturm/Soliman winner rather than Golovkin it would be rather blatant avoidance. Im going to be optimistic and assume that's not going to happen.

    I or any sane person would go for the money fight and that would be Sturm, if he wins. But Geale should now have it in Australia to avoid a robbery. If no Sturm, then GGG in the states, I would say.

    Sturm would be higher reward and less risk - hard to resist.
