I think this is a nice shot in and of itself, but I don't think it fits the subject matter as well as it could. I'm assuming this is a boxer or MMA fighter... but without the title all I would have thought was "shirtless guy." If we could see more of him, particularly his gloves or handwraps, it would add a lot of context to the shot. The other thing is the lighting. It's nice light, don't get me wrong, but for a shot of a fighter preparing for battle, something harder and more contrasty would have been more appropriate in my opinion. Lastly, depending on where this was taken, including some of the environment in the background could really add a lot (assuming this was in some sort of locker room).
