Din Thomas Wants First Shot At Mayorga

The list of fighters lining up to welcome former pro boxer Ricardo Mayorga is growing longer and more distinguished by the day. Today, nine-time UFC fighter Din ‘Dinyero’ Thomas had some very strong words for the recent Shine Fights signee. Thomas did not hold back when sending his message directly to Mayorga, his managers, and Shine Fights matchmakers.

Star-divide

"Ricardo Mayorga just signed to fight in Shine. I think he is afraid of me. If he does accept the fight I will put him into retirement and send him back to his fruit stand in Nicaragua. He will be wearing a straw hat, smoking cigarettes, and selling bananas once and for all. This is MMA and I will beat him standing or on the ground. I will let him pick how he wants to lose his first MMA fight."

This could be an interesting first fight for Mayorga if it stays on the feet.  My guess is that it would quickly go to the ground.  But them's fightin' words for sure.

4 oz. gloves and kicks make this an entirely different ball game.

Maybe Mayorga steps up, but I doubt he’ll fight such a strong fighter as his 1st MMA fight.

No way Mayorga steps up for this. They will give him someone with no ground game at all to start.

Din vs Mayorga would be an incredible fight.

Why Din Why?

Why would a veteran like Din Thomas call out a MMA rookie?

It’s a fight that will garner a lot of attention, and doesn’t Din have a habit of calling out boxers?
