Gary Shaw reflects on Daniel Geale and his incredible victory over Sturm

 

September 5, 2012 - After arriving in the states from Germany this week, promoter Gary Shaw reflects on the incredible week he had with Daniel "Real Deal" Geale and his team as the days led up to their big win against Felix Sturm. Already the IBF Champion, Geale added Sturm's WBA title, becoming the first Australian born fighter to become a unified world champion.

 

"Sturm literally thought Daniel's name was "Meal Deal" and found out the hard way that he's the "Real Deal,'' Shaw said. "Sturm, who acted as his own promoter for this event, must have been occupied with the stresses of being a promoter to think Daniels name was 'Meal Deal.' On the other hand, Team Geale was very relaxed going into this fight. Just hours before the fight, we were all hanging out in the dressing room joking around, and laughing to the point we had tears in our eyes. I've never been in a fight where the atmosphere was so calm. There was no yelling, just very relaxed."
