In this fascinating episode, we talk to Boxings welterweight world title contender Michael Mckinson, Mikey has fought against some of the toughest in the world scene and at the top of the game in America, as a local lad from Portsmouth these things don't happen to our local boxers, history shows that. Mikey is the 1st boxer to box in the states at the world level from Portsmouth and the surrounding areas. His story is one of being an underdog time and time again, it's not been plain sailing, but hard work and learning from mistakes have helped him beat the odds. I had some questions I wanted to ask for years about world-level boxing, it's my passion to watch, what does it feel like to ring walk against a hostile crown like Texas? What's it like to fight one of the world's most dangerous fighters like Vergil Ortiz, how do you push through the tough fight moment and bite on the gumshield? What's the training like?  So many questions, Mikey has stories for them all and lessons to be learned, enjoy.
