Comments Thread For: Geale Ready To Sign Contract For Golovkin Fight

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Promoter Gary Shaw has advised BoxingScene.com that former champion Daniel Geale (29-2, 15KOs) is ready to sign a contract to face WBA/IBO middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (28-0, 25KOs).

Earlier this year, Geale passed on a fight with Golovkin in favor of a bigger payday, which also gave him the opportunity to avenge his first career loss to Anthony Mundine.

Geale avenged his defeat to Mundine and then came back in August and lost a close twelve round split decision, and his IBF middleweight title, to Darren Barker. Since that loss, Barker was knocked out in two rounds by Felix Sturm, who Geale defeated in September 2012.

Interesting. I'm liking that more boxers are willing to fight this monster.

contract probably reads:

I, _________________, am willing to become a good boy.

Signed _________________.

I don't believe any of these liars anymore. They all supposedly want to fight Golovkin but when the contract shows up they are not so willing anymore. Scaredy cats!!

Enough with the "he dropped his belt to duck Golovkin" nonsense already. A Mundine fight was obviously worth a ton more than a Golovkin fight at the time.

Geale would be the best boxer GGG has faced to date. Make it happen.

He dropped being a unified champ and fighting a top fighter to fight mundine which wasnt that big of a fight, even in Assuey land

It was a duck, plain and simple

Daniel Geale @RealDealGeale 7h
@KFZ001 we couldn't commit before the Barker v Sturm fight as we were waiting for rematch, they signed someone before then. Defo late 2014.

GGG's fans trip me out. First, ya'll cry that none of the top guys wanna fight him. Then, when the top guys say they wanna fight him. Ya'll say they lying. Which one is it? Do ya'll wanna see GGG fight the top guys? Or just complain that everybody is ducking him?
