For the average Joe, keeping a healthy diet during quarantine presents its challenges, but they’re the same problems professional fighters face, too. Tyler Minton , a former mixed martial artist and current nutritionist for numerous MMA fighters including Daniel Cormier and Max Holloway, is aware he’s going to have to play clean-up when fighters come calling for his services at the end of the coronavirus shutdown, because fighters fall into the same sort of eating traps we all do. “I definitely think it’s going to be a lot harder for a lot of fighters getting back into this,” Minton said in a recent interview with MMA Junkie. “If they haven’t been really diligent with their nutrition and training as much as they can, they’re going to have a lot of issues. If everything goes the way it’s supposed to be, they’re going to start putting on fights really often back-to-back – especially if they haven’t got paid in a while. They’re going to try to jump onto every card they can.
