I hope it's not too late for me to chime in. Also train BJJ ( people belt) and MMA.
You should look into a conjugate type training method. Alternating your volume. I would use bands and chains on the days you use higher volume.
Also HIITs really help. I do a lot of sprinting. You should start that and each week give your self less time between each sprint to recover. That will reflect tremendously between rounds when you can recover much faster.
Hill sprints are great. Stadiums are even better imho. You can wear an old gi top you don't care about and run the stadiums with the gi top on. Sled pulls are good for hip strength which is crucial as well.
