A frank and honest interview with Mick Sinclair following the disappointment at BAMMA when the bout was cancelled after he failed to make the weight.
Return To Lightweight For Mick Sinclair Following BAMMA Heartache - FIGHT!
Quote:
“For the cut, I know I didn’t make the weight but I didn’t go in there with rolls hanging off me either. I was ripped. Nine days later I was still getting up in the middle of the night with kidney pains, my health is worth more than that and my girlfriend told me not to do it again.”
Although it seems a long time since the Burnley lad was competing at 155lbs, his tenure there was a successful one. Beating the likes of Jason Ball and Ian Jones, he compiled an impressive record and admits there will be one less pressure without the thought of a dramatic weight cut hanging over his head.
“I had no trouble at lightweight, and no trouble getting there,” Mick noted.
“When I’m working with Terry [Etim], Rob [Sinclair; brother] and those guys and they’re 80kg a week or so out from the fight and you’re 75kg, that’s what made me want to drop. But I was strong and fit at 70kg as I could eat well and not have to kill myself.”

Mick will now return to 70kg and fights at Burnley Brawl on March 20th in an attempt to get back on the horse.
Includes words from Mick's mangement team - Mr Ian Dean - regarding the situation.
Show your support for Mick - a real nice guy that doesn't want to let people down and hopes to prove that he is still amongst the elite at lightweight.
