This aggressive young fighter has some powerful connections: Division I wrestling teammates Chase Beebe (WEC World Champ) and Kevin Knabjian and wrestling coach Clay French (KOTC World Champ). A natural ground-n-pounder, Thomas has been working his standup with boxing training and a drop to 170. He made it deep into the TUF 6 auditions before his record (only 4-0 amateur at the time) got him cut.
