Cycling and Dieting for MMA or boxing etc.

I have saw guys and have faught a guy that was really really lean . I assumed his cardio and strength would be good and I was in for it. The 3rd round he was spent breathing really hard and had no strength. He didnt even start out with strength. I know he cut alot of weight for the figh which hurts especially as you get older. So my question is how lean do you get? did his diet hurt him?? Did his cycle hurt him? I assume he was cause his back was covered with acne and we heard rumor he had put on alot of muscle since his previous fight 8 weeks before this??

Back acne & a rumor that he put on a bunch of muscle since his last fight is not proof that he was using aas.

-He might have lost a lot of muscle dieting down
-He might have diet too hard & not had the energy to get or keep his conditioning up
-He might have lost a lot of strength dieting down
-Being lean is not the sign of conditioning
-His training and skill work could have been sub par


Basically there is no way to tell why someone fails in the cage, you would have to know a lot more about his trainin & nutrition to know.

But if he was using gear, what good did it do?
