      It was a duck, plain and simple
      No way it's a duck when there's more money involved in another fight.

      Bradley ducked Khan to eventually get either Pac/Floyd, but the reason why it was a duck was because he admitted "What if I lose to Khan and lose out on the Pac/May sweepstakes?", then preceded to fight Casamayor for the same amount of money he'd have gotten for Khan. That was a duck.

      Geale just plain and simple picked the fight worth more money, which is what you also would have done had you been in his position, at least I hope you would for your own financial sake.

        Also he can't punch, so I don't know how he will get GGG away from him for too long. But it would be GGG's best win in his very empty resume.

            He got got paid 2 milllion. Freaken old man mosley got a million without a belt. A Golovkin fight would have gotten him what? 500K? Would you give up 2 million to fight Golovkin for 500K? Don't be ******.
            Probably not even 500k at that point.

            Same negative nancys hating for the same reasons too.

              It's always the same with the next flavour of the month eastern euro fighter. Everyone ducking them, etc. if a fighter is getting paid more to fight a weaker opponent then he is not ducking, he is building his bank account. Fighters only care about money & nothing else. If you could get paid more to do less work you would jump at it. I'm gonna laugh when he loses. Just to see how sigs & avatars are changed. I don't see that argentine fighter lucas matthyse on anyones sig anymore... Lose a couple fights & the bandwagon jumpers fall off pretty fast. It is quite comical. Guys going back & erasing comments, etc.. It will no different with GGG...

                Because he said he would after Mundine, then he took Barker in Conneticut and then Shaw said they'd fight Sturm after if they won

                  Barker got $1.4m to fight Sturm, I'd want to fight him too in Geale's position. There is money in the division, just not much of it in fighting Golovkin.

                      Yeah, but if Floyd does it, then it's outrageous and he is a disgrace to boxing, right?
