Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Geale on 7/26 at MSG, WBA Clears The Way

[ggg_kz]

I'm not saying he is gonna win, just that I think he can make ggg work harder and take him deeper than any of ggg's recent opponents,, i think geale goes at lest 8 or 9'rds if not longer.. He isn't getting blasted out in 3 or 4 rds

I still think he will get blasted in 6 if GGG is healthy:
Proksa - in 4
Rosado - in 7 (but GGG had a flue)
Ishida - in 4
Macklin - in 3
Stevens - in 8. Here GGG was too cautious of Stevens's power, and Stevens fought out of his turtle shell. GGG will be quite relaxed with Geale and start landing hard shots right from the start, and Geale doesn't fight like Stevens or Murray - he tends to work, and this ain't gonna work against GGG.

Geale is a c- level fighter this getting bad, now I like watching GGG but c'mon Lemieux or Rubio would have been a much better opponent.

Geale could have the softest punches in the world but nothing changes that he's a top 5 MW in the division


Lemieux? Come on man... He has never even fought at the world level, much less be a better opponent then a former champion and top 5 fighter in the division.

Now we're penalizing GGG and his opponents for them not having the style/skillset that it takes to beat him. SMH. If Geale gets starched, he gets starched. He's still top 5 and light years ahead of Lemiux... Who if HE were to get KOd by Golovkin. You know what people would say. They would ignore all of his "skills" (similar to Sillakh against Kovalev) and say that GGG "just KOd a glass chin fighter...... Next!"

in after people were calling for Geale because the fight didn't seem likely and they can dismiss any other potential opponent because it's not Geale, but now that the fight is possible, Geale is a bum/average/limited/no pop/can't beat GGG/when u gonna fight Ward

[Hougigo]

Are some people here really rating lemuix above Geale because of his Guerrero win?

Do people really hate Golovkin that much?

It's clear the Murray won't fight ggg, he has passed up many chances in the past so I doubt it happens anytime soon.. Solimon is a good possibilty, and I think a bidding war is going to break out for Solimon, since he seems like the easiest path for a lot of fighters to gain a belt..

Murray has literally thrown away all momentum he had after the sturm and serg fights.. People, myself included, felt he was one of the top 3 or 4 mw, but he really is only an afterthought now on big fights..

Difference between geale and Murray is that geale didn't fight ggg but was fighting legit guys, whereas Murray has been fighting nobodies

Murray has a new promoter, he will almost certainly fight Golovkin imo.

Murray has a new promoter, he will almost certainly fight Golovkin imo.

Berman seems dead set on it happening in Monaco... He's going to have Murray fight there two or three more times this year (i'm including the Bursak fight)

Look anyone claiming geale as a C level fighter or whatever is just an idiot plain and simple. He's technical, decent speed, keeps a high pace and he isn't packing glass in the chin department (but he's never been tested by a real puncher). His only flaw is his lack of power which is IMO the only thing stopping him from being an A level fighter. This is GGG's biggest test to date but his huge power advantage should be the difference. It will be a good fight IMO.

I'll believe it when he steps in the ring against Golovkin, there's already been rumours of him facing, Soliman.

Boxrec has the fight up on their site

Haven't heard those rumors... but GGG is for sure fighting next month and Soliman is on a short turnaround
