Everybody kind of changed their opinion on that kind of stuff.
I mean, MMA guys are led.
I mean, with MMA, you have the grappling aspect of it.
Without strength and conditioning, you really can't compete.
It's not really possible at this day and age.
Everyone uses strength and conditioning.
There's very few fighters that just train using skill, just train skills.
Pierre did that for a certain period of his career.
And the worst case, I mean, they definitely did calisthenics, but that was it.
It was just body weight exercises, you know, which brings us to Crawford, which I think is really interesting.
The Crawford Canelo fight.
How does Crawford compete with that size?
And, you know, we have to recognize, okay, well, when Canelo fought Floyd, it was 152 pounds, right?
So he had dropped down, which was a struggle for him, which is why Floyd was so brilliant in getting him to go down to 152 because he knew he would be drained.
Well, the weight class, I believe, was 54, but I believe the clause in the contract for that fight was that he get down to 52.
