Daniel Geale entered this fight with a pro boxing record of 29-2-0 (15 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.5 middleweight in the world, his only two losses came both via split decision: the first time when he faced Anthony Mundine in 2009 (=Mundine vs Geale, fight rated 4 stars) and the second time in his last bout against Darren Barker when he also lost the IBF middleweight title after four consecutive defenses (=Geale vs Barker).
