Research was conducted on 102 (one hundred and two) male subjects, boxers aged 18 to 33 The aim of the research was to verify the relation between basic and specific motor abilities of the Macedonian boxers. To that purpose a predicting system of 21 motor tests for the estimation of the basic motor abilities and a criterion system of 8 motor tests for the estimation of the specific motor abilities was applied. Th impact of the predictive system on the criterion variables was determined by a regression analysis on the latent space. The regression analysis was applied in a way the criterion variables represent the latent dimension, received through a factorization of the situational tests, and the latent motor factors, received through a factorization of 21 manifested motor tests using the varimax method, made up the predicting system of variables. The results of this analysis verify the fact that the predicting, latent and motor systems of variables have a statistically significant impact on the success of the latent criterion variables. Boxers with better coordination (the ability to efficiently change the body direction, rapid alternate moves, better statistical and repetitive power) achieve better results in the latent criterion variable defined as the agility of the cranial-caudal parts of the body. Also, boxers with better explosive power (the ability to mobilize one s energy in short time) and coordination (agility- the ability to efficiently change the body direction, rapid alternate moves achieve better results in the second latent dimension defined as a power-speed factor of the upper extremities endurance. The obtained data can be significant factors in the programming of the transformation processes in boxing, more specifically, with the development of the basic motor abilities the relative specific motor dimensions of the boxers can indirectly grow.
