I'm not saying a person can't get winded, that's fine. Change your approach to something that lets you recover while still showing you give a damn about winning.
How is it you people aren't recognizing the difference between getting tired (N'Dou against Mayweather) vs. just not doing shіt the bulk of the fight (Broner vs. Mikey) and making excuses afterwards? They are TWO DIFFERENT things.

If you have that 1 punch power
or
If you're just trying to put in rounds in a tune up
Giving away rounds is like giving away money you don't have.

The Mcgregor fight isnt what he usually does. He'll lose some early rounds because he's jumping at an opponent he doesnt have figured out, which has had him eat some big shots early.
Mayweather had to carry that fight
He had a big wager on himself : the fight would go over
And magically just enough for Floyd to collect his money
He wasn’t taking rounds for figuring chit out , he was taking rounds to cash in
