[O Prophet]

You forgot the most important thing - jab.

1. Jab.
2. Footwork
3. Boxing skills
4. Ring IQ.
5. Reflex
5. Power
6. Heart
7. Stamina
8. Speed

Jab is included in boxing skills u idiot.

Anyways my personal list:
Heart is most important
Chin (without it you can’t survive in boxing period)
Ring IQ
Speed
Power
Athleticism
Experience
Boxing skills
Stamina

[O Prophet]

1) Boxing skills
2) Ring IQ (ability to adjust)
3) Experience
4) Stamina
5) Athleticism/movement
6) Chin
7) Heart
8) Speed
9) Power
10) Corner

If you have the top 5, the bottom 5 aren't really needed.

Corner isn’t a boxer’s attribute. And you can’t be a great fighter without chin or heart.

People are severely underrating chin. If you cant take a shot it doesnt matter how good your speed, skills, power, athleticism is.

Lol you are a dumbass. Jab is a boxing skill. Movement/Athleticism isn’t. Your Dad must have breastfed you a lot for you to be this dumb. (That wasn’t milk dude)

Power is easily cancelled out and May is the perfect example. Nelo is another. Ali is yet another. Brains will allow a guy to set traps. Possibly make the aggressive guy make mistakes out of frustration.

Very rarely do top guys ko each other. It usually comes down to 3 judges.

Power is great if a guy is fighting no hopers or is a no hopper. That ''punchers chance'' type of attribute

Haha i feel this is an endless loop of what if's but i'll reply anyway!

So true, power alone is very easy to cancel out, but not if it's landing faster than you can physically react to it and coupled with having the stamina to continue to throw it. You gave me some examples of people who cancelled out power, but they were all cat quick. Marquez is a master boxer and Mayweather still timed him over and over again, mostly due to speed and boxing skills. However there are times when even the most fantastic boxers fall prey to speed + power, Hearns getting run through by Hagler is an example, Maidana pushing Mayweather to an inch of his undefeated career with nothing but stamina and power alone really. It was entirely crude and yet many still think he won the fight. Even Wilder scratched a draw, purely because of his power and his speed, regardless of how you saw the fight, the knockdowns were a result of exactly that and i'm not sure we can call Fury a no hoper

However this could honestly go back and fourth 100 times! I think it's a little redundant to try and disprove somebodies idea of most desirable attributes because there are literally examples of everything disproving everything else

[elfag]

well, I would look at a top 10 p4p list and see what most fighters have on there.

power isnt that neccissary. Even stamina isnt neccissary, a lot of top boxers like Canelo, DLH ect were known for fading down the stretch.

Probably boxing skills and ring IQ are the highest.

You got some guys like say Mikey Garcia, Bernard Hopkins, JMM, werent particularly fast or atheletic but highly skilled.

Very few top 10 boxers are unskilled unless they have an amazing trait like Wilder's power or Margarito's size and chin (and bricks)
