Geale is a tough mofo, but he is getting KO'd

Geale lost....

...to Barker who lost to Sturm and was KOd by Martinez. These are the only two decent fighters Barker fought and lost to. Geale beat Sturm lost to Barker, beat Mundine once and lost to Mundine once. Where does anyone get the notion Geale will be a tough fight?

GGG is an awesome boxer. Balance, subtle defense, great foot work, speed and power. A lethal combination. I would not bet against Golovkin.

Not a damn chance in hell, it wont go past 8. Golovkin puts him down 3 times prior to the brutal stoppage in the 8th!

Yes, this is what i hoped for. Been at a couple GBP events at Barclays and they opened up the whole arena for 6000 people and so many people sat on top while the middle and lower seats were empty

I would be a lot more excited if Geale was in the position he was in after beating Sturm: unified WBA/IBF middleweight champion coming off a big victory. Instead, he holds no belt and lost his last significant fight to Barker. If Geale couldn't beat Barker, I don't see how he beats Golovkin.

Barker was a man possessed and fought out of his skin, above and beyond his ability, to get the win. That wouldn't have happened on any other night. I think this is a good progressive step-up for golovkin. However I would rather see him thrown in the deep end, a super middleweight clash with ward.

Fully expect Golovkin to whip his ass.

[Slowhand]

The only real question here is if Geale can survive 12 rds. I´m guessing.. nope. But at least he´s willing to get in the ring with GGG and give the fans a show.

I've seen that situation go bad. The cheap seats invaded the lower section and there was a ruckus every time money bags showed up for his seat. The cops had to chase so many people out of the high price section that it set off a small riot.
