What exercises help a person in a fight?

Question

In other words, what exercises do boxers, or any other fighter, do that lead them to a win?

Answer 1

For boxing, you have to prepare yourself to fight with high intensity for a number of rounds.  Boxers use roadwork to develop a base of aerobic fitness that will allow them to train hard in the gym.  They use interval training of different sorts to develop intensity and anaerobic capacity.  Skipping rope builds endurance in the feet and calves, the speed bag builds endurance in the arms and shoulders, and high-volume core training builds endurance in the core musculature.  Skill training is, of course, mandatory.

For street fighting, you need the ability to go all out -- 100% intensity -- for maybe 30 seconds.  In order to develop that ability, you have to do high-intensity interval training.  Low-intensity roadwork will lay a foundation for this sort of training, but it is only a part of the total package.  In addition to skill-based training (learning to punch, etc.), general physical preparedness drills (GPP drills) are the sort of thing that helps in street fights.

Most important: do not view conditioning work as a way to avoid fatigue.  No matter how well-conditioned you are, you will inevitably become fatigued at some point, either by being challenged by the abilities of a better opponent, or by being sick or weak from making weight.  In other words, there will come a time when, despite your best efforts to prevent it, you will have to face fatigue.  Therefore, you will have to purposely work through fatigue during training, so you no longer fear it.  You might not be able to do anything about it, but you can withstand it without panic, if you train with a high intensity.
