Geale Says He Wasn't 100% After Draining Down

•Jun 7, 2015

Much was made over the 157-pound catch-weight for Saturday's middleweight title fight between WBC king Miguel Cotto and challenger Daniel Geale. Geale struggled to get down to the weight and had the appearance of a severely drained fighter at Friday's weighin when he stepped on the scale and made weight. By the time of the fight, Geale had packed on a lot of weight. HBO's unofficial scale had him at 182-pounds (with street clothes) about an hour or two before the fight.

The stage is almost set for a fall mega-fight between Miguel Cotto of Puerto Rico and Saul "Canelo" Alvarez of Mexico. But before that can happen, at least for Cotto's WBC middleweight title, a deal must be reached with WBA/IBO champion Gennady "GGG" Golovkin. Golovkin is the mandatory challenger to Cotto's WBC title. The sanctioning body ordered the winner of Cotto vs. Daniel Geale to face Golovkin next. Cotto stopped Geale in four rounds on Saturday night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

NEW YORK – A Miguel Cotto-Canleo Alvarez showdown is much more likely to occur next, but trainer Freddie Roach is confident Cotto could upset Floyd Mayweather Jr. if a Cotto-Mayweather rematch is made. “It’s a tough fight, but I do think Miguel’s big enough and strong enough to beat him,” Roach said early Sunday morning during the Cotto-Daniel Geale post-fight press conference at Barclays Center. “We’d have to fight a perfect fight, but I think we’re very capable of doing that.”

Cotto landed a devastating left hook early in the fourth and then finished off the challenger soon after with a series of body shots that sent the Aussie to the canvas for a second time. Geale got up but was obviously unable to continue and Dock called a halt.

After forcing Australian boxer Daniel Geale to starve himself to make weight, WBC middleweight champion Miguel Cotto plans to go in the for the kill. Geale and Cotto will step into the ring inside the 18,000-seat Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, on Saturday. Cotto is the short-priced favorite to defend his title, but the aggressive Puerto Rican also has the most to lose with a pay-per-view mega fight with Mexican superstar Canelo Alvarez pencilled in later in the year.
