    But Geale could ask for a belt unification bout with Quillin, couldn't he?

      I don't see that fight happening now, both are going to milk that belt till kingdom come.

          I like Sturm and that's why I don't want to see him nowhere near GGG.
          He should chase Geale and try to return the belt.

          GGG has a much bigger things in front of him.

            I can't understand why someone is able to "like" Sturm?
            The guy didn't travel ever for a fight even to Strasbourg -- which is only 5 km outside Germany.

              Yes he did travel, he went to the states to fight Oscar and got robbed. I'm sure you remember that.

                Sturm fought a pumped up featherweight this night...
                Radosevic is 5 10 and has only fought at middleweight and up in his career.

                He was/is a mediocre opponent though. Sturm did look in great shape and did what he needed to do. I also like Sturm, never been a fan of his passive defence covering up in the middle of the ring but he has good skills and has had one of the best jabs the middleweight division has ever seen. Definitely not got enough to beat Golovkin though, could possibly beat Geale in a rematch or Barker should Barker beat Geale.

                  I also like Sturm more than most. He's just so vulnerable and it makes for interesting fights. It's just frustrating sometimes because he does show flashes being a world class fighter, but then he just lets get away from him.

                    sure if he's standing on a 5 inch box

                      I think it might just be his stamina that has always been the problem. Sturm always seems to be pacing himself. When he judges it wrong and has judges who score on activity (ie throwing punches rather than clean landed punches) then he has trouble with the scorecards.
