But even in MMA he was gassing out.there is a reason rookie boxers have 4 rounders. floyd's dad prepared for this and had floyd take it easy for exactly 4 rounds because this is a normal point for a rookie to gas out
He cuts too much weightWhat's wrong with his cardio/endurance? You would think his trainer would prepare him.
Not just this fight either. He gassed in the Nate Diaz fight.
This. Im relatively new to mma, but find it more exciting than boxing. 1 thing I notice is something needs to be done about weight divisions. McGregor is too big for 155 and 145, but probably too small for the 170lb division. I dont know how u fix it,bit thats just crazy. Khabib walks around at damn near 200lbs and is tryin to fight 155lbersHe cuts too much weight
It's not healthy to cut over 15 pounds a day before the fight

I guess its important to remember ufc/mma is still young amd growing.

cardio is a focus but it is with different muscle memory. floyd would gas out if he started wrestling tonight for the first timeBut even in MMA he was gassing out.
Is cardio not a focus for MMA fighters because the fights are shorter?
Very young. There's not even a defined way of getting into MMA yet. Do you train boxing first? Go straight into general MMA? Wrestling first?This.

What would be better than a bikeHe does a lot of his road work on a bike.

conor may have some stamina flaws in MMA but he could correct that with fighting at a more natural weight. he is 29 now, his body has reached "grown man strength" and he is going to have to sacrifice more and more to make his smallest weight class.i
his stamina flaws in boxing are due entirely to lack of experience. his muscles are not used to boxing, so they are inefficient at it.
can u elaborate on thisman all mma fighter guys
Conor gassed without grappling after the first round in both diaz fights, they didn't wrestle at all lmao
MMA fighters never fight the same after the first round, they remind me of heavyweight boxers after 6 rounds, they still have energy and can fight, but everything is sloppy, they all get real sloppy after a round, never saw an mma fight where the energy level was the same for 12 rounds
It takes years to be conditioned to fight like that, which is why bro boxers start fighting 4 round fights, then 8 round fights, and work their way up to 12 when their body becomes conditioned
mma doesn't have any type of system in place to build fighters, and also mma training is more modern, when boxing is old school proven shyt that works
