I don't understand how heavyweight boxers can run up to ten miles a day and be huge, jacked, fast and have ridic endurance. Ie: Mike Tyson for one.

How many heavyweight boxers do you know that run 10 miles a day? What is your source of information here? I HIGHLY doubt that's the case for any kind of majority of boxers.

Also, just because someone is big doesn't mean he's as big as he could be. There's a difference between large compared to your average fitness enthusiast and large relative to your individual potential.

Top 10 Heavyweight Boxers of All Time | Smashing Post

"About a month before a fight, he???d run 10 miles a day, then 12 to 15 in the last two weeks before the fight."

"He loved to train, as opposed to a lot of boxers these days, and ran 5 miles every day, 365 days a year, up and down the steep hills around Brockton, Mass. He???d sprint up, sprint down backward, forward, with 30-pound weights on his shoes."
