    An assortment of punches doesnt exclude you from being one dimensional. Tyson for instance couldnt box on his toes or have a lot of success from the outside. His game was almost exclusively getting close and coming forward. The ability to throw punches and step off, and in, using angles, while still coming forward, is the very definiton of perfecting it.
    Ali could never be classified as one dimensional. he could do way more than just box from the outside.
