1. If you were Geale, and you beat Cotto for the strap, and you had to fight GGG, would you fight him again or vacate? 2. What do you think Daniel himself would do?
He has said previous that he wants to get into a position to rematch GGG. But I think if any other big money fight came along he would jump at it instead.
If I was Geale and I beat Cotto, I would try to have a few big money fights/defences against guys like Lee, Quillin, etc before rematching GGG if possible. I, and Geale, would face GGG again before dropping the belt
Geale wants to rematch Golovkin, he has said that multiple times. I heard him on the radio saying it the other day. Remember Geale is with Shaw, so his options are possibly limited to HBO.
I don't think there would be interest in a GGG-Geale 2 from anybody and that could force him to move along.
He dumped a belt once already to avoid Golovkin, he only ended up fighting Golovkin because he had no other options, LOL at anyone who thinks he wants to fight him again, you could see during their fight that Geales was ****ting his pants and quit at the first opportunity he got.
Geale will fight who he wants. He had the WBA stripped because he chose to fight Mundine rather than defend against WBA mandatory at the time, GGG. If he beats Cotto, expect him to play dumb about his mandatory obligation and either vacate or get stripped again.
