ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Daniel Geale and Darren Barker both came in at 159.5 pounds for their middleweight title fight that will air Saturday as the headline bout at Revel Atlantic City.
The bout pits two 160-pound fighters in an HBO main event at a time when the network has also been featuring middleweight champion Sergio Martinez and knockout sensation Gennady Golovkin.
Geale, who holds the International Boxing Federation’s belt, is coming off decision wins over Felix Sturm in September 2012 and Anthony Mundine this past January. The 32-year-old Australian from Mt. Annan, New South Wales, is 29-1 (15 knockouts). The lone loss came in his first fight with Mundine, back in 2009, a bout that saw him come up on the short end of a split decision.
