Also I agree with you that the sport is atleast 50/50 in that regard. Although the heart rate is mostly in the aerobic zone, the fight is won when we enter anaerobic zone (throwing punches) and how often we can go there for the duration of the fight seems to be the measure of 'boxing fitness'.

I see what you're saying there, and that's a certainly interesting stat I never knew, but I mean 50/50 as in importance to boxing and training (since dangerousity asked if he should only train aerobic system), not 'duration' in a fight. If we're talking about where your heart rate is for a fight, I see what you're saying in that the aerobic system dominates for most of the time, but I'm saying 50/50 in that if someone goes into a fight with amazing aerobic abilities (i.e. can run marathons) but little to no anaerobic training, I can't see them doing well, because you need to balance things and train both systems :bbb. Would you agree with this?

Yes, I agree, I see what you mean now by 50/50. Training anaerobically helps to generate power, speed, etc. all very important skills. I thought what was meant was that the anaerobic energy system and aerobic energy system shared equal demands in terms of energy. :tired
