    A tight combination puncher is a beautiful thing to watch.

          Ability to adjust, confidence, attitude......the intangibles. They are hard to spot but often overcome a multitude of other deficiencies to create champions.

              Heart
              Will
              Determination
              Willingness to engage and go for broke.
              Skills

              Its a combination and there is no mold that fits all, every fighters has their combo of attributes that attracts me to them and makes me a fan.

              Ive been a fan of bradley since day one, when everyone was hating on him.

                He is, and Marquez, DLH, Leonard, Tyson, Whitaker etc were amazing to behold in their primes.

                  I like mental toughness, I like boxer-punchers and pure boxer types (I do enjoy the occasional club fighter vs club fighter every once in awhile). I honestly like those with some sort of drawback that forces them to have to overcome. Makes it more impressive, such as a short fighter in a big division, or someone with nary a hint of punching power. I also gravitate to those more like me from a personality standpoint (e.g. less vocal, less flamboyant types)

                    A combination of skill and power.

                    Sergey Kovalev and Wladimir Klitschko are perfect examples.

                    I like Dmytro Kucher but can't stand watching his countryman Viktor Postol because he's so feather-fisted.
