WMMA Fighter Sean “Big Sexy” McCorkle Talks About His Upcoming Fight On “Crunchtime [Audio]
This past Saturday I had the pleasure to interview WMMA fighter Sean "Big Sexy" McCorkle on Crunchtime. He will be fighting Brian Heden in the main event of the evening.
In case your wondering why they call Sean "Big Sexy," well it's because he's 6'7 and weighs 317lbs. He's probably one of the biggest MMA fighters in the world, and during the interview we find out what his strategy is when he fights opponents that are small than him.
You would think that his height and weight would be a plus in the MMA world, but his weight is one of the things that makes it hard for him.
"In the UFC the weight cut-off for heavyweights is 265 lbs and I weigh about 317 with about 5% body fat. So for me to lose an additional 52 pounds makes it very hard on my body.
Also in the interview, we find out how Sean decided to become a MMA fighter and what it's gonna take for him to get back into the UFC.
