    What is the rarest natural skill/asset for a boxer?

    We all know fighters often excel at some elements of the game yet have shortcomings in other areas - for example having a weak chin, or poor stamina etc...

    So, from a strictly non-skills point of view, what is the rarest skill or asset a fighter will naturally have - for example chin, speed, power, toughness, heart...

    And what is the most important asset - I'm gonna guess the majority will go with chin?

    But....

      Ummm I'm going to say ducking making excuses and formulating a cult to defend you at all times Reguardless of the situation.

        The will to win aka mentally strong.

        Examples: Timothy fkin Bradley and Danny Garcia

        My god they suck but they find their way to win.

            Good call, that's definitely important and can be oh so effective for offense and defence.

              Maybe my example was a "quality" and not a "natural skill". Haha

                Woops, missed your one haha sorry bro. Na, I suppose 'mental strength' can be counted, you can change it only in certain cases, your mentality is something you are generally stuck with, ingrained or not.
