    Pretty much right here:



    So Geale wants Golovkin, but only on HBO... but HBO don't know about it.
    Makes me think they'll try and push Kirkland
    Is Geale going to sell in USA? HBO seem to want to get familiar names out.

        Belt added leverage and interest to the fight. Gear still top level in the division, but HBO probably rating hunting. I'd love to see a mora fight but HBO hates him. Would've loved it in monaco, but that didn't work out. Kirkland got the highest viewer ship dec seventh.

        If, and I mean if, what I think is happening, Kirkland will over price himself and they'll go with geale.
        Probably looking to hard and HBO trying to negotiate
        Rating hunting? Geale was in a very good fight on HBO and at the time several people were considering it fight of the year. What more do they want?

              GGG/Kirkland is absolute ****. It's horrible compared to Golovkin against anyone relevant at middleweight.

                Geale vs Barker was a fight of the year contender and did better ratings than Kirkland's last fight though.

                  if thats the fight he chooses, it will tell us a lot about golovkin.

                    If he does, I'll be looking more forward towards what certain people around here would have to say about it.
