While there are truths to anaerobic training for boxing, long distance running is still valuable.

Rocky Marciano ran 5 miles a day. He rarely, if ever, gassed. He never even gassed enough that an opponent took advantage of.

With the advances of fitness, fighters should be able to go much longer. There is no excuse for any pro athlete to gas. Unless heavy damage has been dealt and it cripples the bodies entire system...
