Apparently we know Geale doesn't have the funds to buy off the WBA like Sturm did.
Sucks for him, but he knew going into the Sturm bout who he had to face next, and I think I remember seeing by the end of December, and he didn't bother to go through with it.
It's a joke they gave him a month or two after his Sturm bout, and allowed Felix to duck Golovkin for 2 years, but he knew what he was getting himself into with the WBA.

Sturm/Geale winner knew they had to face Golovkin next but Geale chose to fight a 37 year old Mundine who hasn't won a halfway meaningful fight in 3 or 4 years. Fight your compatriot bum and stfu.

exactly!
Just because Sturm got some special treatment, doesn't make it any less wrong of Geale for not fighting his mandatory.
It's hard to feel bad for Geale. He chooses to fight Mundine and Soliman while there are challenges like Golovkin, Martinez, and Pirog out there instead. He got what he deserved. I'm glad the WBA didn't play around for once.
