Geale will be stripped of one of his belts if he doesn't face Golovkin: Daniel Geale To Be Stripped if He Doesn't Face Golovkin - Boxing News
That makes four current or former champions that for whatever reason have opted to not fight Golovkin: Kid Choc, Sturm, Geale, and N'Jikam.

Golovkin must be a bit upset to win a title like this. If I was him I would say I will fight with Geale once he has finished with Mundine.

I'm pretty sure the issue was never whether Golovkin would fight Geale; the issue was whether Geale was going to fight Golovkin. In his defense, he was the mandatory for Sturm for years.

I really like GGG, he's calm collected and my god he's got a stiff jab. One thing though, the dude does get hit on the chin bit more than I'd like to see.

Molina wants a shot at Golovkin
Quote:
The world’s “Uncrowned” #1 154-lb contender “King” Carlos Molina (20-5-2, 6 KOs) is offering help to WBA middleweight champion
Gennady Golovkin with his quest to find an opponent.
Golovkin’s trainer, Abel Sanchez, was recently quoted as claiming that no one wants to face his fighter, and so far no opponent for Golovkin has been announced.
“I will!” said the eager Molina. “We can do it at 154 or at any weight between 154 AND 160 lbs. It doesn’t matter to me. If you want a top opponent to face, here I am. Let’s do this.”
Russia’s Golovkin (24-0, 21 KOs) is scheduled for a January 19 HBO appearance in New York, and Sanchez went so far as claiming Edwin Rodriguez turned down a half million dollars for the fight.
Despite the five losses on his ledger, Molina truly is the uncrowned number one contender. His 20-5-2 record includes draws with Erislandy Lara and Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr., both fights most people thought he clearly won. His disqualification against Kirkland was one of boxing’s truly low moments, and he also ended up on the wrong end of several other bad split-decision losses early in his career.
In fact, it is Molina who is the fighter truly willing to fight anyone between 147 and 160 lbs.
“I got you Gennady. Bring your half a million and your boxing gloves and let’s fight. I’m not busy January 19 and I’d love to be world middleweight champion. Call my people and let’s make a deal.”

Frankly, he's as good as opponent as the guys as Gennady might get right now.
You know who makes sense for Gennady given the reluctance to face him? Kelly Pavlik. We already know that Andre Ward will disect and destroy Pavlik. It's a waste of a fight. Pavlik would be Gennady's toughest opponent yet. He's a big scalp for Gennady.
