In this very special episode of The Ringside Nutrition Podcast I am joined by my client & now close friend, WBO Global Welterweight Champion - Mikey "The Problem" McKinson.
Myself & Mikey talk all about his journey through the professional ranks & lessons he has learnt along the way & how he has got to the level he has reached. We also unpick the rumble on the rock fight vs Chris Kongo & Mikey shares his experiences from fight week & how he made weight the best he has ever done in his career to date. We then reflect on the first lockdown in 2020 & how it lead to Mikey losing motivation to train & box which lead to a significant increase in body weight which made his preparations for the Martin Harkin fight in October difficult.
Mikey also shares his views on nutrition & how much of an important factor it has become for him in the last year. Whilst we also answer some of your quick fire questions you guys submitted to us & we find out which brother is Mikey's dad's favourite!
This is a really insightful listen for any younger fighters out there who want to hear the journey of a world class professional boxer who hasn't even reached his peak yet.
