Expecting 115-113 on the cards all round then?Quote:

Last 2 rounds now and Geale needs a couple knock downs or a KO to win
Geale is game but not clever enough
geale working hard...
great end! close fight.
12th to geale but I missed two rounds and got it 6-4 sturm please no cries of robbery either way cause there were some close effin rounds
I give the last round to Geale. There were a lot of close rounds, but I think Sturm just edged it.
But I'm sure the judges will probably have Sturm winning by a wide margin. ;)
Geale needed a wax job to win this on a split. I cant see him getting the nod here even though I think Geale got it.
Hoping for a draw
7 rounds to 5 Sturm. He deserves it
whoah!!! he worked hard!
Wow! Can't believe Geale got a decision in Germany!
wow
Come on now
blue moon last night!
Wow! I'm surprised Geale got a decision. I mean, a lot a rounds were close so I can see how he could have gotten it, but just surprised that he got it in Germany is all.
Good fight surprised at 8-4 either way, but can we know stop doging germany for shit judging??? I had sturm edging it but some of those rounds were really really close and if I watched it iagain I may see it the other way, wonder if they had a rematch clause?
Also wtf is up with sturm abandoning the jab at times??? When he uses it he's pretty fucking good, when he doesn't he's less than ordinary
I thought Geale had it by a round. I only missed round 8...
What a fight. Not a complete action fight. Sturm is hard to lure into a brawl, naturally, but it was a TENSE fight.
Geale landed more variety of shots. He has legit power, and he was better conditioned down the stretch. Sturm kept trying to slow the pace down all through the fight, and there were so many times Geale figured out how to make him work.
Congrats to Geale. I think he can fight Pirog and get a good payday.
The winner can get Martinez after he wipes the floor with Chavez
His jab is brilliant, but that's about 80% of his offence. I think Geale did so much better fighting on the inside, and did better bodywork.Quote:

Also this might finally make sturm leave germany once again, and well he was bound to have a close one not go his was, but I really thought he edged it on the cleaner work but was to lazy in some of the rounds. Hopefully tonights matchups are good ones to, congrats to geale he certainly came to fight
Ironic that Dave Parris was the deciding factor in giving it to the Aussie. Good luck Danny, I think it was Sturms but close and for once he did not get the help he usually does.
I missed 2 rounds but had sturm 6-4 so the best geale could have gotten was a draw for me, but sturm was bound to have a close one go against him even at home sooner or later. Yeah he didn't show much variety today but even as much as his jab is his offence there were times when he abandoned it, he's at his best when he constantly uses it. I bet the rounds he wond clearly he flicked out I don't know thirty or forty of emQuote:

Got to agree with ya can't feel to bad for sturm he's had many a close one go his way, as I said before none of them outright robberies, but close fights that could have gone either way that went to him due to being the hometown guy. Sturm makes for usually exciting and entertaining fights I'm sure he'd be much more liked and well known outside of germany if the odlh fight didn't turn him into a hometown fighter.Quote:

Sturm, Abraham, the Klitschkos and others all get the benefit of the doubt in Germany. Tonight was different.
Great win for Geale. Most of what I have read suggests Geale won according to most but the actual scores are a bit odd. Going into the fight I heard Geale comment that he was glad that he had the IBF officials there also to hopefully keep an eye on the scoring. Seems to have helped. Go DANIEL!!
When has either of the klits needed the benefit of the doubt??? Plus they've fought abroad many a time!!Quote:

I hear you and agree but bad calls and Germany seem to have been synonymous for several years however historically you are correct.Quote:

I had Geale winning by a couple but dam.
And historically that may have been the case but just ask abril, campillo, matthysee, martinez what they think of judging in the us as of late...Quote:

Your country has been a boxing mecca since the Queenberry rules and as a result there is no question historically up to modern day as to which country has had the greatest number of bad calls.Quote:

All I am saying is that for the last decade or so Germany has had several questionable calls.
And that this could be added to it even though imo the right man won.
I was all wrong. Thought Sturm would have been much stronger.
