I was just wondering the difference between training every day and being in shape vs Training 12 weeks to peak for a fight? I hear fighter who trains seven days a week... And stay in shape.. but I hear other fighter like Randy saying he need a certain period to train to be at peak level. Can some one explain to me what is the dif?

periodization. A way to get your abilities (strength, stamina, tech) to all be close to maximal levels by comp time. Key up periodization.
