What's the best boxing quality?

[buddyguns]

Out of all the qualities of a boxer, my favorites are a stay busy attitude, champions who seek to unify titles, and fighters that are willing to go anywhere to fight anyone. I've had a hard time deciding which quality I appreciate the most so I'd like to hear everyone's opinion. My current favorite fighter is Roman Gonzalez, and while he has shown the ability to stay busy and travel wherever to fight, he's never unified any titles. What to you guys think makes a great fighter?

Respect for your opponent and for the sport.

A charismatic personality. All atgs were very magnetic and drew people in one way or another. They had a great smile and an infectious laugh and they always said the right things at the right time like "thanks for having me" or "hey nice to meet you too! Hahaha". Can't get far in terms of appeal and popularity without a great personality. Robinson, Ali, wlad, pacquiao all had great personalities.

The ability to take hits and keep coming forward. That's how winning is done!

If I had to pick one it'd be the ability to adjust on the fly. Being able to implement different game plans during a fight is underrated.

You make a great point. It seems lately like boxing doesn't have enough of these type of fighters to serve as ambassadors to keep interest in the sport. I thought Crawford did a great job last weekend of giving a humble and appealing post fight interview.

It might be underrated because not enough fighters have this ability in their arsenal. I see one too many boxers these days that keep trying to work the same gameplan all throughout a fight, even when it wasn't working in the first half of the fight.
