|  Din Thomas to WEC 145lb Division
Quote: |
“The UFC’s lightweight division is the most complex division in the world,” Thomas said. “There’s like four different roads to a title shot going on right now and within any of the roads, no one can afford to lose. While I know I can win against any lightweight in the world on a given day, I fell twice in a row. Therefore, I’m going to bow out. Good luck to those guys. I’m going to drop down to 145 lbs and see if those guys down there will embrace me.”

He is right, I think the move will be good for him and it will be interesting to see what he does in WEC.

War Din!!! Hes gonnna be a bad match up for most of the guys in the division just cause of his size and reach. I think if he wins his first fight he will get a shot at the winner of Faber/Pulver in his 2nd fight.

he is going to be a HUGE 145lb fighter.
Whats crazy is before he injured his knee in the Kflo fight, he was one maybe 2 wins away from being in title contention.
