(2)  aggressiveness, as demonstrated by the contestant’s forcing the fight during the round by making the greater number of attacks;

(3)  conspicuous ring generalship, that is, skill in swiftly taking advantage of all opportunities offered, and the ability to cope with all situations as they arise, to foresee and neutralize the opponent’s attacks and to adopt a style with which the opponent is not particularly comfortable; and

(4)  defence by skillful evasions and parries.
