@m1j4s4 роки тому
Low v02 max is not the same as what he was describing, though both your statements are true. V02 max can be trained; whereas, the type of muscle fibres you have and the insertion points of your muscle tendons are genetic. This wouldn't predispose Conor to having a significantly lower V02 max than any other fighter though. In theory, the guy's answer sounds interesting as to why Conor would gas out in a fight, but lower V02 max than Diaz let's say and/or his fighting style at the start of the fight being more aggressive would be greater factors as to why his oxygen deficit spikes initially in fights (due to exertion with quick knock out mindset as they described) and is unable to be recovered well in the later rounds (due to possible lower V02 max). The two things the guy mentions are valid talking points as to why Conor may have the edge in striking power; however, these alone would not suggest Conor would not be able to improve his late game stamina. With training, of course anything can be improved, sometimes at the cost of other abilities. This may be the case with improved V02 at the cost of striking power, but it certainly would not handicap him more than it could improve his fighting, i.e. spending more time with conditioning and increasing his V02 max. On the contrary, because of his genetic make up for striking power and quick knock outs, had he been focusing more on v02, maybe he would have had less time to maximize his striking potential and not seen as many first round wins. More than likely he had never had to train his endurance as much as other athletes due to these two differences in muscle genetics. As others have begun to find ways to defend against his knock out power (I don't really follow UFC so I refer to the Mayweather fight), Conor will certainly have to train himself to maximize his striking power throughout the later rounds. I just don't see it as an impossibility due to his genetics!

One very important thing to consider is that Conor does a lot of techniques that require a lot of big motions and drain a lot of energy. Spinning techniques for example are a huge drain on your stamina for a potentially high reward. Conor does a lot of these very draining techniques over the course of a match because he wants to end fights early, which leads to him gassing faster than someone who fights more conservatively.

Fun fact all of your skeletal muscles have some ratio of fast twitch to slow twitch muscle fibers. The type of training you do will determine the recruitment of those fibers so you can actually train to change that ratio and make any muscle to be fast twitch dominant. Explosive high intensity type of movements tend to recruit more fast twitch muscle fibers
@dee-taylor10 місяців тому
Response from the future: Some are genetically predisposed to be one or the other by a wide margin. Sure, you can train explosiveness and endurance, but some people are naturally explosive without training a day and others have endurance without cultivating it. Those people are freaks and I've encountered them many times playing football, wrestling and later grappling.

I want to add that the third most important factor to power is the mechanics of your strike. Different technique will leverage different muscles to produce power, certain muscles will be used less or more depending on how you do the move. So, if you want to strike like a specific fighter, you have to imitate their posture somewhat and engage your muscles the same way they do.

Dominic Cruz has come back from a long multiple year layoff and won the title. If Conor had gotten a turn tuneup fight, would the outcome have been any different.

Fast twitch fibers easily fatigue quickly as they use the glycolytic pathway that builds up lactic acidosis. Slow twitch fibers are more red in color and are loaded with myoglobin. These fibers don’t get fatigued. Your diaphragm for instance are 55% slow twitch fibers which is why you don’t get fatigued while you are normally breathing. I completely agree the Conor probably is loaded with fast twitch fibers.

Other than doing a muscle biopsy, I’m not aware of any real way to tell how many fast twitch fibers make up your skeletal muscle. I know that your diaphragm makes up around 55% slow twitch fibers which makes it resistant to fatigue. Same goes for the muscles in your hips are made up of a large amount of slow twitch fibers so you can stand for large periods of time without fatigue.
@Srna20245 років тому
foxybrown2 I’m a nurse anesthetist student that has studied anatomy vastly. What are your credentials to say that this isn’t true? What did I say that wasn’t true?

The most underrated cardio workout is jump roping I notice a lot of MMA fighters don't do that.. if you just do 15 minutes before your MMA training I guarantee your stamina would increase.. this is coming from a grappler that is now just training boxing for 3 years now

@00Moneyxl5 років тому
Bernard Hopkins fought once a year against a hand picked opponent and he still got whooped. Mayweather has been boxing since the age of 10 years old, it's about time he hangs them up, Remember Bernard Hopkins had a LATE start to boxing so he went longer because of that, and obviously let's not kid ourselves here he was on some kind of juice as well, im not saying it was anything extreme like steroids but a bit of juice You really think if Floyd felt fresh he would stop winning? He loves fighting and winning but he knows if he comes back right now to fight he will get beat by any top fighter... He just doesn't have it anymore, why do you think he fought Andre Berto for his last fight? (Before the Conor fight)

@Juel923 роки тому
I think technique matters as well though. In the Diaz vs Connor fight for example I didn't see Diaz throw a single powerpunch with great power technique. All they were was arm punches, he didn't put his body weight into them or rotated his torso for full effect. Even if he does that it doesn't mean that he will have the touch of death but he would have a way easier time knocking people out.

@InvestBetter.3 роки тому
Mayweather exposed McGregor two ways: 1. His power is not that powerful. He caught Floyd a couple of times, but he didn't rock him. (Floyd's defensive ability to slip punches, and not get hit too squarely helped a lot.) 2. Conor HATES "Deep water". After the 4th round, he was fading, and Floyd walked him down

At 1:50 he nails it. I believe that this is true, whether it's a light guy like Bruce Lee, or someone heavier. Those people understand their own body and abilities and know when they can strike with authority. They also know when to avoid circumstances when they are not in authority. This is the mental aspect of fighting - knowing one's own strengths and weaknesses. It is truly an art. And this requires a very smart individual who has that "vision". The best fighters are very high-IQ people with that special vision.

I know what he's saying sounds good but I'm not 100% sold. Manny Pacquiao has never gassed out in a fight, and homeboy has fast twitch muscle like no other. Sure genetics plays to some factor, but I think what a fighter or his camp chooses to focus on during training determines that too. #1 the Diaz brothers are tri-atheletes. Whereas they could focus a big chunk of their time to weight lifting for power, they train marathon style hence the amazing cardio. #2 Mike Tyson while possessing massive power and fast twitch muscle, was also asthmatic. Which is why he trained and approached to finish fights early. #3 Connor gasses out simply because cardio is probably on the bottom of the list of his training focus. I'm not saying genetics dont play some role, I'm saying dont ignore what the fighter or his camp chooses to prioritize during training.
@vanilkharbanda3 роки тому
😂😂😂 you're right. I don't buy a word of what he said. Conor's fighting style is exhausting. 1. Super active kicking game. Bicycle kick, spinning kick etc. to put pressure, push opponents to the cage and make Conor counter their right with his left. 2. Not to mention how much force he puts into his left counter. He looks to end the fight, not to get into striking exchanges.
