For a boxer to have both, great power and great speed? Especially at lighter weight class? I was wondering because today one of heavy weight boxer at my gym was telling me that he really like my power and speed and I was sorta surprise that I have both since I never really try hard to be fast or powerful, I pay more attention to my tactic and skill than power or speed.

Rember, power is a byproduct of speed and technique. So yes, if your are really quick and have great technique, it shouldnt be a surprise that you have great power.

Power and speed are both a matter of technique. Proper technique and smart strategy will make you seem faster and the power will be a result of relaxed posture and speed.

You are gifted if you have both power and speed. Just work on your technique and defense and you should be a very good boxer.
