    Skill to me means you must have the ability to see certain things that opponent cannot see which in turn means you must be thinking in there and intelligence in the ring will always overcome heart/desire.

    Majority of the time its not how brave you are its how smart you are, some fighters dont understand this, namely Hatton.

      It depends completely on the fighters.

          Depends on the skill level. Mayweather's skill is always going to win out over power. But you saw on Friday Night Fights, the more skilled guy Bailey succumbed to the power of Urango. You have to be very skilled to neutralize power.

            Bernard Hopkins over Kelly Pavlik should answer you question.

                Urango has more skill then people realize though, he shows alot of movement with his bobbing and weaving. He is a tough son of a ***** to fight, I don't think he is as one dimensional as people label him to be. And he should stay at 140, its his best weight class. And I don't like his fights with Hatton and Berto, because he allowed them to clinch almost all night long and win that way...

                  Skill is what matters, power is just a bonus. If you have two equally skilled fighters and one is more powerful, he'll probably have the upper hand. If its a skilled fighter vs. an unskilled puncher, the unskilled puncher will probably lose.
