    pretty much agree with ya bad night for geale, the main thing though that geale coudlnt hurt golovkin no matter how hard hit tried and golovkin effortless hurt geale, saying he has no defence is a bit of a strech too

    yeah i pretty much conceded in the op that geale was gonna get knocked out regardless, but he had the worst luck last night it was almost comical, i felt bad for the guy lol. ggg;s defense is take one to give one (geale landed 29% of his punches) and it's working for him, i really don't think there is anyone at 160 w the power to make him think twice about that strategy.

    He is lucky as hell!

    In what other era could a bum earn that kind of loot?

    Geale is is the right era at the right time. Bums like him used to earn $400 per fight, tops.

    punchers chance ye your right he was unlucky alright and if your going in against golovkin you need a bit of luck, i think he can defend better though of he needs be though, and geale did make it awkard, he did alot a nice feints. golokvin has a great chin tooif he goes for the take one give two

    I agree. Sort of.

    To me it's hard to gauge because i've never seen him in a fight where he has had to use defense. At all. When i see how he responds in a situation where he has to rely on his D to win a fight, or to survive, i'll feel better equipped to make a call.
