Comments Thread For: Geale: Golovkin Needs an Opponent Like Me To Be Elite

[dan_cov]

he doesn't like GGG so he's gotta find something negative about his potential opponents ... geale is chinny, martinez will be past it etc.

Oh okay Geale is elite, p4p #1, titanium chin. Happy now child?

Geale's a very good MW - which guys at 160 should GGG be facing then?

[Hougigo]

Well given the fact hes hit the deck around a dozen times and is getting buckled almost everytime out against non punchers would strongly suggest so.

you talking about this?



A dozen seems like an over exaggeration.... I'd say maybe half of that in his whole career.

Also as his career went on and he improved, don't think he's been down since against the better opponents.

He is an alright MW in a weak era and nothing more. I just said he is alright, a step up but he is nothing special and I thoroughly expect Golovkin to knock him for six. The guy was hurt badly by Adamu, Barker and knocked down real heavily by a string of non punching limited Aussies. If and he will get hit by Golovkin, he is as good as dead.

Geale is a step in the right direction and nothing more. Despite Geale beating Adamu its stylistically an easier fight. His speed, output and style might translate to some success but I literally think he goes night night with the first clean shot he is hit with.

Geale has an excellent workrate, decent enough speed and a lot of heart but GGG will destroy him. He is a step up, I'll give him some credit for this but I ultimately expect GGG to break the chinny mediocre Geale, in to a dozen pieces.

He may have some moderate success with his in and out style but he will get hit at some point and my lawd will that glass he has been hiding quite well lately shatter.

Typical Dan... I guess Marquez and your home boy Chakiev be chinny as hell.

Geale got knocked down a lot during the first half of his career.... looking at then and now is a huge difference. How many times has he been knocked down at the world level?

Always trying to discredit Golovkin....sheesh.
Geale is chinny because he hasn't been knocked down since 2008

Yeah he was down in that fight a few times also against McKinnen and multiple others who I can't even remember the names of.
He deserves credit for getting up and winning most/all the fights (though they was real poor quality operators) but he is packing a highly questionable chin and that can only spell real danger against a puncher of Golovkins magnitude.
He uses his feet more but I don't see no real improvement personally.

Again its a step up, is he better than Macklin? hmm I am not too sure actually.

Yh because they was getting knocked down by non punching journeymen every other fight

Same **** with Khan - Doesn't get knocked down for a few fights so all of a sudden he has managed to fix a glass chin!
There is no cure for a glass chin, they just manage to hide is better and it gets found out eventually.

Compared from then to now, he's incorporated a lot more movement....like jittery.
I think it expends a little too much extra energy going in a 12 round fight...but it works for him.

All I can say is he's gotten better since then and has done well against the world class opponents he's faced.

Do I think he's better than Macklin? Yea, I think Geale would beat Macklin

[dan_cov]

Of course it starts as a compliment for what would be a step up but they have to try make out I am not giving him enough credit

Seeing you think Geale is so good, you go bet on him then! Be my guest I assure you Golovkin breaks his face in half though.
