    set for 1/9 just a couple of days away, imo geale should have this 1, higher work rate, works from better angles....sturms only chance is the judges helping him out.... the bonus is when/if geale wins he is willing to come to the US to try and unify the belts, possible showdown with martinez/chavez(not likely)

    Nah geale wont win this, his chins not good enough to take sturms shots all night and if he manages to hear the final bell the judges will give it sturm deservedly or not

    Fancy Sturm, he seems to turn up for the big fights. Looked as good as ever vs Zbik, what Geale did against Sylvester won't work against Sturm but we'll see what he brings to the table.

    I like Geale, I hope he gets the win.

    Living in Aus, I really hope Geale takes this.

    Just doesn't seem to bang hard enough, will have to rely on the judges. Tough to constantly have to do that against top fighters.

    geale has had big prep and said its the fittest and strongest he's been for a fight...been using sakio bika and a few other good pros who are ranked as sparring partners, still think this could be 1 hell of a fight, i also think sturm has been on diet of oppenents with avge workrates he also hand picks his oppenents ....not this time

    Geale is going to make a statement & stop Sturm in the 11th or 12th

    Geale has too much movement and too much activity, Sturm will struggle to land consistently on him.

    dreamin Zzzzzzz...wake up kid......sturm hasnt faced some1 like geale for a long time , his last oppenents have been past there best or had been spoon fed crap fights, which makes it easy for sturm, but this will make it him when he faces geale, and if any1 is going to rave on about zibik has only really fought chavez who is a blown up middle and zibik has been spoon fed oppenents as well... geale will trouble sturm, its sturms time to go

    Geale will look to outwork and Sturm will be looking for clean crisp shots

    This " SHOULD " be a decent fight !!!, i really like Geale in an upset here, but logic tells me Sturm UD

    Defensively Geale is flawed, he's a solid, strong kid with good power and has skill, but a well schooled capable boxer/puncher can beat Geale pretty handily IMO

    I like Geale, i like his attitude, and his style, and i hope he puts it all over Sturm, im just not sure he can !!

    not bad, the thing i like a bout geale is since he won the ibf title his confidence has been a big factor, either way i think its going to be a great fight, and sturm cant take him lightly for a second

    initially I thought Sturm would win easy. But Geales smart! I'm starting to think Geale will box smart all night. It could go either way but I don't expect a war!!
