Geale comes home without the belt
Geale comes home without the belt
Promoters & IBF figured he wasn't a chance, so they didn't bother organizing one

That cant be rite 
Re: Geale comes home without the belt
It is either arrogance or incompetence. Either way it makes the IBF and the promoter look dopey.
As Effie Stephanidis would say, "How embarrassment."

Just seen the news, he walked out of the airport holding a belt. 
Re: Geale comes home without the belt
Its a commen thing, Kostya Tszyu said after he won one of his belts. He kept the belt presented to him in the ring which belonged to the champion. And sent him the new one when it arrived.
Re: Geale comes home without the belt
According to ABC 24 news this morning, they didn't have a belt to give him. Maybe someone brought the IBF Pan Pac belt to the airport for media sake?'Frilla wrote:Just seen the news, he walked out of the airport holding a belt.

Re: Geale comes home without the belt
The belt he was holding on the news, was Vic Darchynians. Just heard it on the news tonight.
Re: Geale comes home without the belt
I don't believe that the belts are created ahead of time in most cases, as that would cost money, and there is obviously no guarantee that a new belt would have to be created for a new champ. I don't think that there is anything unusual about this case.

Good point mate.
Re: Geale comes home without the belt
Yeah, I guess you're right. IBF, like WBC & WBA operates on shoestring budgetcrusader wrote:I don't believe that the belts are created ahead of time in most cases, as that would cost money, and there is obviously no guarantee that a new belt would have to be created for a new champ.
