Physical conditioning is a must for any boxer. Because to win, a boxer must sustain his energy against his opponent. Most of the time, if both fighters possess same level of skills, their conditioning plays a great role in winning and that a more conditioned fighter prevails over a less-conditioned one. Barrera is one example. He didn't get the chance of training to the fullest because of an incident (a fire that had happened during his training at Big Bear, California). Pacquiao, on the other hand, had prepared well for the fight. His conditioning was awesome and he surprised Barrera with a lot of quickness and power. He stopped Barrera in the 11th round of that fight.
Conditioning was maybe one of the factors why Barrera had been beaten badly. Barrera's camp said it was focus, too (they said he was disturbed by the news - his brain operation was made known to the public prior to the time of the fight with pacquiao). So, is it just alright for Barrera to say he had just a bad night? Your comments on this.
