The former UFC fighter who holds a shocking victory over one of the best heavyweights in the world will soon rival Mariusz Pudzianowski at KSW23 in Gdańsk/Sopot’s Ergo Arena on June 8th 2013. Minneapolis-born mixed martial arts known as “Big Sexy” Sean McCorkle will rival the mighty strongman in the main attraction of the show.

Thirty-six-year-old McCorkle began his MMA career in 2005. Five years late he made a successful debut in the world’s largest MMA organization UFC, where he appeared in three heavyweight bouts. In his short tenure, he squared off against such renowned opponents as Stefan Struve and Mark Hunt. The last one listed does not have fond memories from fighting “Big Sexy”, as he was forced to submit to kimura hold in less than a minute.
Having the background in Jiu-Jitsu, the American fighter holds the record of sixteen wins and five defeats. He is two meters high and weighs one hundred and thirty kilograms. He trains and proudly represents the Team X-Treme.

Duel against the gigantic foe will be Mariusz Pudzianowski’s ninth professional fight in MMA and eighth appearance in KSW. "Pudzian" trains extremely hard for this fight, sacrificing a lot of his time to boxing, wrestling and jiu jitsu workouts. As he says, he sees progress in every aspect of his game and is going to prove it in the ring at KSW23!
