    Probably one of the most dangerous Middleweights in the world at the moment,his amature resume was outstanding won the Amature world championship Gold Medal,silver in the Olympics along the way destroyed the likes of Bute,Dirrel,Andy Lee,Gardener and Korobov to name a few.

    His Professional record is 20 Fights for 20 Wins with 17 KOs he has been very inactive there is no doubt his problems with his mangers and a reluctance for Big name fighters to put the pen to paper being the main reason,do not doubt this Powerfull fighters Class he has a walk up style with enormous power in both hands,would love to see Geale fight Him but Daniel should enjoy his time at the Top for a while first.!!!!

    Me neither, when I say you are an arrogant and ignorant muppet. :hi:
    Your words were, 'Andy Lee will generate way more dosh'.
    Complete bull****.
    You can count on Geales next couple fights being down under, so none of the mentioned fighters will generate 'way more dosh' than the other.
    I already said I have only seen a few of his fights. So what?
    He looks the goods, but then most fighters do when they're fighting cans.
    Get back to me when he fights a live one as a pro.
    Now who's showing their ignorance.... :patsch
    Beating people more than 7 years ago is not a good reference as to where they are today (like you alluded to).
    How the hell is Sturm a 'far more esteemed fighter'?
    Geale would handle Sturm just fine too.

    And how are they ducking Golovkin? Oh, because Golovkin (and you) said so. :verysad
    The scorecards were essentially the same, except for the judge who watched the wrong fight. More bull**** from you. :tired
    Perhaps you need to take your own advice before you spew out the above dribble.

    I don't mind discussing the strengths and weaknesses of each fighter, but you just like to embellish whatever you like to suit your own agenda.

    I have no problem with Golovkin, and he certainly does look the goods, but until he fights someone like Geale has, you're just speaking bull****.

    :good Alright then. I'm not going to have a slagging match with you.


    Even if Geale fights down under you think fighting an unknown Kazakhstani would sell as well the best known Irish fighter, in Australia? Come on man, the Irish will fill plenty of seats and buy a lot of PPV's.

    I will. I never said he has a better pro record than Geale. But he has shown enough evidence that he is a better boxer in my opinion. He's been reported to have beaten up Alvarez and Angulo recently in sparring. http://ringtv.craveonline.com/blog/...-golovkin-worth-driving-up-a-mountain-to-see-

    Felix Sturm beat Oscar De La Hoya. The consensus amongst just about everyone that follows boxing that isn't you is that he is the #2 ranked boxer in the world. He's taken the route of easy defences over the years no doubt but he still has a far deeper resume than Geale.

    Sturm has been the super champion for how long now? All he has to do is make one phonecall to make that fight. The WBA give him a free ride because he is a popular fighter and that means money.

    Forget the cards and watch the Sturm fight. Lot's of the rounds were close in the Geale/Sylvester fight. Sturm pretty much dominated the fight.

    I've no agenda. You made a stupid comment that Golovkin was a handy fight to make some money when he has p4p one of the worst risk/reward ratio boxers in the game. I just pulled you up on that. I was delighted to see Geale beat Sylvester, I really like the guy. So I've no agenda. If anyone is a handy pay day for Geale it's Mundine, that's the easy money making defence he deserves and should go for in my opinion.

    Good to see, we can continue with an intelligent discussion without the condescending attitude. :good
    Down under, absolutely.

    All the fighters (we've) mentioned as opponents for Geale, will all sell for much the same in Australia.

    Unfortunately, the only 2 names that sell big here are Mundine and Green. At the moment.
    No problem, I haven't. We'll agree to disagree.
    Fair enough, sparring is always different to the real thing though.
    When did I say otherwise?
    I said Geale would handle Sturm. It would be a tough fight, one that I believe Geale has enough to win.
    Most fighters do, so what? That doesn't mean he would beat Geale.
    Understood, but that in itself doesn't mean they are ducking him. Boxing is all about money and politics (as much as I hate it), most fighters will take the easy road if they can.
    Look at the Pac VS Floyd fiasco. Are either of these fighters ducking each other, or is it just the logistics of the huge $$ involved not making it happen?
    I haven't seen the fight.
    In any case, you know very well that just because fighter A beat fighter B, etc etc.

    Geale has been able to adapt to different fighters very well IMO. I've been watching him very close for nearly 4 years now. He's done nothing but improve and impress me with his ability to get through all that's in front of him without ever being out of his comfort zone.

    Geale reminds me most of Calzaghe. Calzaghe managed to outbox all comers, and he didn't have one punch KO power.
    And I still maintain that opinion.
    Golovkin in OZ makes OK money and a win for Geale, IMO.
    Sure, there are lower risk fights, but not many which will make more money here.
    Neither of us know how much was offered, so we're both guessing.
    Good to know, but think about how confrontational and offensive you were when 'pulling me up' about it.
    Yes to the $$, he will make good money if the timing is right on that one, but I think he shouldn't give Mandy the satisfaction of the fight.
    Geale deserves the money, but Mandy doesn't deserve the fight.

    But that's another story and just MO.

    first off Mundine beat geale :deal by at least 2 rounds plus a knockdown as well, the haters try and say it could have gone either way :nut what a load of bull****. If you think geale won against The man it's either your hatred of mundine or you can't score a boxing match. I remember reading people on here who thought delahoya beat mayweather :lol: anyway Mundine has a better chance of beating Golovkin then geale does because he is the better fighter, why because he beat Geale. Geale won't hold on to the title for very long :deal

    The 3 IBO judges on the night went 2/1 for Mundine.

    In the review 3 other IBO judges went 2/1 for Geale.


    The IBO therefore saw it as 3 for Mundine and 3 for Geale.


    Are the IBO haters? Or is it just that they can't score a boxing match as well as you Raiders?

    No the IBO aren''t haters they are a joke of an organisation :deal They got the decision right that night but only just. I mean look at Green's so called title fights its :-( to see how low an organisation can go, thats why Hopkins didn't even pay the IBO sanctioning fees :deal

    doesn't matter though cause the right man got the decision!

    It was a very close fight that could have gone either way - that's the bottom line on that fight - and that's why the IBO split it 3/3 and demanded the rematch.

    ...the one Choc ducked.
