Is GGG The Demmolisher one dimensional?

A year later I watched GGG fight another opponent this time Murray and again he just moved forward with no regard for Murray's power, again flat footed. But he did look like the real deal he threw many combinations. He is fun to watch has a crowd pleasing style.

He is very good but not a complete fighter IMO. I is going to be interesting when he fights a tough highly skilled fighter.

I bet people would say the same thing about Julio Ceasar Chavez Sr. One dimensional, not a complete fighter. Look I'm not comparing their careers or their resume's because there is a huge gap currently, I'm just talking about styles.

You can be a smart, effective puncher, with heart, will and a chin and be a great fighter. There are maybe like 4-5 guys in the history of the sport that are "complete" fighters. My whole point is can a guy utilize the tools he's given. Golovkin looks like he can use the tools he's given and he knows how to fight within himself. Will that carry to higher weights or tougher competition. That's yet to be seen but I feel like he's fairly close to complete because he fights exactly how he should fight for his skillset and natural ability.

Well so far Golovkin hasn't had to be versatile, he's imposing his style on his opponents and they are the ones that have to try and adjust.

I think the main thing is to look at the subtle things he does. He isn't just mindlessly plodding forward like someone like Angulo, who is the definition of one dimensional. Look at his footwork, his balance, the variety in his shots, how he sets up his shots, how he attacks the body, how he cuts off the ring, how he traps guys against the ropes or in the corner because of his positioning, how he's forcing guys to go into a certain direction, etc. If you pay attention to the details, you see there is a whole lot there, there is intelligence into his aggression, it's calculated.

Lol. Teddy ripped Golovkin a new one. "no more bums!"

Teddy's nuts. He calls Froch, FroCK.

Possibly. But it's one hell of a dimension. A fighter can be multi-dimensional and shit.

Being one dimensional isn't necessarily a bad thing if you're a master of that dimension.

Great post man.

Teddy is disrespectful for calling Murray a bum. He's a solid fighter. Not sure how top ten guys are considered bums, you'd think someone in Atlas's position would have more understanding and respect for fighters.

But this Atlas, who just recently he was knocking Monroe for losing to a "17-17-3 fighter" without mentioning that that's the same 17-17-3 fighter that crushed Adonis Stevenson, gave Kovalev the closest fight of his career, put Andre Ward on his ass, etc. Can't just look at a record with a guy like Boone who's fought in all kinds of weight classes and taken fights on extremely short notices. And yet Atlas did, just looked at the record and said oh he's a bum. It's reasons like that that I don't pay any attention to what he says, he's very hypocritical and also often extremely ignorant (not to mention biased).

I get his jist. He's basically saying the same thing everyone else is but he doesn't relay his messages well he comes off rash, dramatic, and gets caught up in his own emotions. He starts off well, then ends up ending in an emotional, tangent. And he comes off disrespectful. He's off his rocker though.
