    Speed kills. You'll notice that even some top fighters who aren't very quick can still deliver prety sharp and precise punches... and I don't just mean hand speed. Foot speed, quick upper body reflexes, etc. can all be great advantages in boxing and in any other physical sport for that matter. You can overwhelm even the toughest of opponents with raw quickness.

    The most important attributes in boxing are intelligence and character.

    Stamina. If you can throw 100 punches a round for 12 rounds, you'll put yourself in a great position to win.
