With mma, you're giving and taking kicks, grappling and defending takedowns, all of this causes a lot more exertion than boxing only. Also, in boxing, you're getting a break every 3 min, vs 5 min in an mma match. It's not really a fair comparison to say because he was gassed in the 3rd round of an mma match that he couldn't go longer in boxing.
