Good luck doing either when you are exhausted.

People who dont train, seem to have trouble grasping just how hard it is to do just about anything when you are truly out of energy.

Thats why its so incredible when we see guys like Leben pull out a bomb when hes gassed.

Gomi/Diaz is the first fight that comes to mind - Gomi is just physically dead, his arms wont respond to his will. You can look in his eyes and see the frustration and fear. No cardio makes you a sitting duck, you are unable to put your body to use, and thats a terrifying feeling for anyone in the ring.
