It’s a laughable and utterly false narrative to suggest GGG isn’t a skilled fighter. Yes his power won him many of his fights as far as the layman is concerned, but he set those shots up with skill and they were varied. He wasn’t reliant on a single strong punch like Wilder and Garcia. You don’t win 345 amateur fights without a lot of skill, just doesn’t happen. Ever. And before anyone comes out with the tired old line that amateurs don’t mean anything in the pros, yes they do. Not every amateur style translates to the pros but many do and clearly GGG’s is one of them.
GGG has little boxing skills. He only rely on his power. I don't recall anyone saying GGG has skills. All he was a KO Bum Artist. Jacobs, Darychenko, Canelo shows once he steps on the elite level he struggled and to some got a gift vs Darychenko.
Bivol has skills. Not GGG. By the way Canelo also depends on his power, not to much on skills. Once his power doesn't hurt his oppents, he get outboxed. Exampl BJS and Plant, who were outboxing him before the KO. Bivol put a boxing clinic on him because his power couldn't hurt Bivol.
Comments like these are usually made by the same partisan Americans that contend Loma is also hype and basically anyone that’s not from the US that’s held titles for any length of time. It’s pathetic really. Not really boxing fans and seldom understand the game in any sort of depth.Comment

I like loma. Again GGG doesn't have boxing skills. He straight up and down. Has cement feet. Im not against Europens fighters. I like Loma best I've ever seen. Bivol has superb boxing skills, also does Fury. Im calling a spade a spade. I use to love GGG and I still do, but he lacks boxing IQ. Feints, footwork, never gave different looks, just basic.

Errol spence doesn’t give different looks but no one suggests he can’t box. GGG can box - in fact that’s precisely how he fought in the second fight with Canelo. 345 amateur wins. The guy can box. Ridiculous to suggest otherwise.

Wait till he fights Crawford, someone with boxing skills. They can box, but they are basic. Even pro online say Errol is one dimensional and basic.Comment

The Spaniards called beltsandor Martin I believe.I wouldn’t be surprised to see Taylor put a beating on Lopez. They are both good counter punchers, so it will probably depend on who goes first. If Teo does step to him I don’t see it ending well for him. His attack has been lackluster against Kambosos and whatshisname, the Spaniard. Josh is no featherweight moving up to lightweight like Loma. He’s a bonafide 140 with a history of dealing with pressure from better fighters.Comment

Using that logic Canelo has “little skills” because he couldn’t KO Floyd or Lara or Cotto or Bivol or Smith.
