Who is more "Overrated" GGG or Matthysse?

[SkillspayBills]

How could Golovkin get a single vote smh. He is NOT just a one punch KO artist. He has solid defense, ELITE level balance, ELITE level footwork in cutting off the ring, ELITE level patience to pick his shots correctly. It will be much harder to beat Golovkin than it would to beat Lucas.

For the record to avoid the flame war you should have just asked "Who is the better fighter"

By virtue of who they've fought GGG is more "overrated". At the same time Gennady has better potential and a higher ceiling in my opinion.

They are both living up to the "hype" so I can't say either is over-rated. Both guys have probably the strongest punch per respective bodyweight in the sport. Golovkin needs the ropes to win though....he MUST get his opponents trapped. Lucas will drop someone right in the middle of the ring with a left hook.

I wouldn't say defense is that good... but he's never really needed to rely on it too much since he spend most his time stalking and crushing

Matthysse has fought more world champs of course GGG is the overrated one. Anyone who thinks anything else doesn't know **** about boxing.

You realise GGG has an excellent pedigree in the AMs? Beating the likes of Bute and Dirrel.

Golovkin has very good defense. He has very good skills. Lucas is fantastic, but GGG is on an elite level beyond Lucas, imo.

LOL

If you gonna be making that point aggressively come with a different avatar, right? Vic must be made of teflon for him to still be in play for big name fights, and to be taken seriously in boxing. The guy has literally never won a fight vs a contender/top 10 level guy in 2 divisions, except one catchweight he imposed. Funny thing is, many of the guys boosting him **** on a guy that won a record 6 divisional titles and beaten ATGs with no catchweights. Not sure about this guy though, he seems like a single minded GGG hater.
