    Some Of The Things I Look For In a Good Fighter!!

    [B ]1,A good Boxing Brain!Meaning=Someone who can change there game plan during a fight and adapt to over come the other fighters style.

    2,Footwork=Good footwork will get most boxes out of trouble and at the same time will improve the power of a punch,Also helps when boxing at angles. "So when everyone is laughing at Mayweather for doin the Dancing with the stars gig, It is actually doing him the world of good".

    3,Aggression=This is a must for me! I only like fighters who come to fight not to sod about on the back foot all night, thats not my cuppa tea at all.

    4,Power=Natrual power is a must, I aint talking about the stuff that steriods does for you..The word is NATRUAL POWER

    5,Heart=This brings the hole package together.This is a must, all great fighters have a heart like a Lion for there sport, This is what makes a fighter, when hes losing still continue to give his best, And most of the time turn the fight around

    IMO before anyone can think of being labelled P4P they should at least cover these 4 points? [/B]

    Punching power has to be in there, too IMO. Boxing skills lose to boxing skills plus power. Essential to being p4p. Pauli Malignaggi, for instance may be top ten in boxing skills right now, but he's so featherfisted that he's not even ranked in the top 50 by The Ring (#72 to be exact).
