Arnold Allen Speaks on Thomas Paull
“I’ve had the pleasure of training with Thomas Paull a few times, the Juggernaut. He’s got great energy, and he doesn’t let his hearing hold him back. If anything, it pushes him on.”
“He’s a great role model for the deaf community. I think it’ll be really inspiring for young people coming through to see what he’s done.”
“Yeah, he’s 11-3. He’s got a 100% finish rate. He’s a very exciting fighter. They call him the juggernaut for a reason. I’m sure Thomas is going to put on an exciting fight. Fighting on the Contender Series finishes are what Dana’s after, so all the best, Thomas.”
