Maybe, but isn't Krav Maga more about self-defense/fighting multiple folks, or armed opponents?

I think it just depends on how each fighter uses their own tools to win. I train everything, but just so I can defend against takedowns and BJJ. (Itrain them most) All I want to do is stay safe on the ground, and work to get up. I want to spend as little energy as I can to knock someone out standing. Every fighter has a "go to" strength, but if you don't train your weak spots, you may as well quit before the show!

That is my assumption.

Yeah - You definitely have to be a cardio machine! Heck, most normal guys are completely spent in under a minute. And even those who ARE cardio machines, how many times have you seen a greatly conditioned fighter go out and dog it, because he took a little too much out of himself cutting weight? My hat's off to anyone who does this - they EARN their paychecks in the preparation phase. O0
