    Does anyone have any info about this US HW ?

    How long do people think he'll stay an amateur, or will he go pro
    sooner rather than later ? Is it true he was sparring with Wlad ?

    Thanks.

    apparently he's really tall and has good footwork.

    Thomas was a great prospect as a teenager, and won the world jr's at jr heavy. However, he is not a natural heavy. Thomas is tall and lean, quick and skilled. His problem is competition gets bigger and stronger; he is not growing with them. A lack of firepower is holding him back, so I hear.

    Some felt Thomas could be the next good American Heavyweight, but I get the sense that moment has come and gone. I do not even think Thomas is active anymore.

    Shitty coach, but one of the all time great point guards.
