Gennady Golovkin vs. Daniel Geale: Preview and Prediction

This Saturday night in Madison Square Garden, IBO and WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin squares off against Australian tough guy, Daniel Geale in what is most definitely both men’s toughest test to date, leading to a very intriguing and highly entertaining match up.

Strengths for Each Man

There is no doubt that the 32 year old from Kazakhstan has a significant advantage in power over his counterpart.

The way Gennady Golovkin cripples his opponents, shows that he can hurt you with either hand, which could be ominous for Daniel Geale.

What is very impressive though, is that Golovkin not only has the ability to set up his shots, but also has the patience to carve out an opening in his opponents defence instead of becoming reckless.

Therefore, I believe Golovkin’s power advantage along with his classy ring generalship should give GGG the ability to keep the rugged Geale off.

Daniel Geale is as tough as they come, his come forward pressure style consists of throwing a large number of punches per round that unsettles his opponents.

It has been this style that has proved to be very successful for him throughout his long career.

This should most definitely be his strategy come Saturday night, as Geale should try and hussle Gennady Golovkin on to the back foot, while staying up close to neutralize GGG’s power.
