Is GGG The Demmolisher one dimensional?

Nah, Lomachenko's record is better. Still an incredible record though. And he beat Lee, Geale, Dirrell, Bute, and a few other notables in the amateurs if I remember correctly. I wouldn't say he has defeated lots of fighters rated in the top 10. Stevens and Proksa were debatable and Macklin was clearly top 10. I totally agree about Lara. The Angulo fight made me wonder: What happens if a far faster, more technically proficient, much stronger punching, better chinned, and overall more complete pressure fighter takes on Lara? Golovkin is better than Angulo than every way, which leads me to believe he could easily replicate what Anuglo did and almost certainly surpass it. Still, we shouldn't give GGG credit for victories he doesn't have. We can only speculate until those fights get made.His amateur record is something like 360 wins to 5 losses. Probably the best amateur record in history. You can't build an amateur record like that on power alone. He has never been knocked down or hurt. He has won all of his pro fights and knocked out about 90% of them. He has defeated lots of fighters rated in the top 10 in the world and would have defeated many more but they won't fight him. He sure as hell is not avoiding Lara. If Lara can be knocked down twice by Angulo GGG will knock Lara out. He is much better than Angulo in every way. Get all these hypothetical GGG beaters in the ring with him and he will knock them out. He can't beat guys that won't sign the contract to fight.Comment

Hard to tell because he's never had to revert from Plan A really but from what I see so far he doesn't look very versatile to me.Comment

yea someone needs to step up and challenge him lara called him out but they don't seem like they want that lol anyone top level fighter will give him a tough fight even stevens hung in there 9 or 10 rounds and he isn't all that even though a decent fighter at B-C levelComment

He is one dimensional. I don't care for his amateur pedigree. It don't matter if you have 10 or a thousand fights, you can still be one dimensional.
Look at Brandon Rios didn't he have close to 300 amateur bouts himself? There is nobody telling me that guy isn't as one dimensional as you can get.
''Err bum bum got subtle skills dawg'' R u srs?
I see GGG as a one dimensional fighter with a very effective style. Any pressure fighter with a good beard and that power is going to be a problem and is going to make you work probably a lot more than you want to.
I see the same thing with everytime out, I don't see him making adjustments in there.Comment

I agree but I have seen him fight differently before. I think this is the way he fought this particular opponent. He seemed to just walk him right down with no regards for head movement. In previous fights I think he's been more lateral. Of course, he wouldn't be able to just do that with any fighter. He will have to be a little more dynamic with more skilled and faster boxers.Comment
