Can someone explain the point of Golovkin-Geale?

[MBE]

Fighting a guy coming off a loss to a domestic-level fighter. It's a lose/lose for Golovkin. I guess if keeps the hype train ticking-over, but someone needs to step this guy up to world level.

Further hype building for Golovkin.

A.K.A. a showcase fight.

That is all.

What other MW contender can he fight that is willing to get in the ring with him?

Can someone explain the point of this thread? It's a lose/lose for this forum and the op. I guess it keeps the hate train ticking over but someone needs to step this poster to common sense.

Seriously: Which other topfighter would be ready to fight GGG in July? Geale is by far the best.

[Tom Cruise]

Dude cant get the fights at MW. Geale is a solid guy who has been in and around the top 10 for years.

He should move up imo. He already has a strap, and the lineal title he was hanging around for will bring him little praise now... though it would pad his bank account a little.

Go to SMW. Lets see him fight some real challenges

Chavez fight fell through.

Geale is a top middleweight, former champ, possibly top 5 in the division but definitely top 7 or 8.

Murray, martinez, Sturm, Quillin ... none of them would fight him so...

it's not GGG's fault that these guys wouldn't fight him, so he has only 3 options after that.
1. Sit on his hands and do nothing,
2. Move up in weight,
3. Fight the best available guy at 160.

He chose option 3

hahaha....lol

[MAXIMUS~RICO~13]

Because nobody wants it!! It's sad really, it's a high risk low reward to fight GGG at this point!!!

[PACnPBFsuck]

Dude needs a good win, can't do that sitting at home or showing up to watch other people fight.

[sugarsmosley]

geale is a good fighter, hes actually coming off a win against garth wood but yes he did lose a close fight to darren barker. who is a good fighter in his own right


Good fight for GGG, cmon ggg-geale is a big fight and you cant deny that.
