I wonder how much time is actually devoted to stamina/endurance/cardio training by the boxers of today.

Do they spend most of their time in the gym and do "a little running here and there" and underestimating its importance?
Good question for 'Ask the Trainer'. I suspect they try to get the cardio differently these days.
