    Definitely heart..

    As long as a fighter continues to TRY to win rather then folding up and settling for 'finishing the fight on my feet'..

    A fighters unrelenting will to not only fight but win is a thing of beauty

    For me it is heart. You can't just say alright tonight I'm going to show off my heart skills. You either got it, or you don't.

    Also like to add in the HEART dept, Lamon Brewster, when he fought Wladimir Klitschko.

    If you're a fan of tomato can hearts and ruthless reckless swinging then head to the nearest alley and enjoy the street fight. If you're too lazy to head there then order a UFC card and enjoy the heart and testicle choke submissions.

    It's probably 'skills' for me. I love to watch a fighter study and work out an opponent then start to counter them with accurate clean shots. Doesn't happen very often but is a joy to watch when it does. The Brits on here who have watched Jason Booth over the last 18 months will know what I'm talking about.
