From Madison Square Garden. This should be a really, really good fight. Geale will be Golovkin's biggest challenge to date. IMO, GGG looked vulnerable in his last fight (against some unknown fighter), so I expect Geale to push him. No one has made it to the final bell vs. Golovkin in his last 16 fights, so we'll see if Geale can weather the Kazakh power.

With a KO tonight, Golovkin's KO percentage will be 90%. In 30 fights. . . 90%!

ETA: If anyone wants to comment on Geale, I'd love to hear how you rate him. I've only seen one of his fights (vs. Darren Barker), so I don't know much about him TBH. Just that he's ranked high.

Pumped for this one....and there's a big heavyweight eliminator that will open the telecast (Perez-Jennings). Should be a great double header.

Wow, I hope Jennings can pull it out. There's too much sports going on tonight to keep up with!

Triple G fan checkin in.

Should have a fairly easy night tonight due to style of Geale. Geale throws a lot of punches , but he lacks power. He will be open for GGG to launch some really thudding body shots.

GGG's footwork is underrated in my opinion, however his skillet in general is underrated as happens from time to time with skilled POWER punchers.

Geale , from a ranking standpoint, is the best competition to date for Golovkin for sure; but styles make fights and I think GGG gets another KO.

The Jennings fight kind of sucked. Jennings takes the split with the 1 pt deduction in the 12th

I had Jennings winning anyway, but not an entertaining fight.
The heavyweight division has been the least entertaining division for quite some time.

Weird.

GGG is so patient...like a surgeon in there.

Damn. Golovkin is un. real.

Unbeatable by anyone except maybe Ward. But I bet no one will fight him.
