"Judo" Jim Wallhead can't make it because of the vocano and Thomas will get back in the tournament and will fight McClintock. Good to see Bellator made up for that shit ref.

It would be fitting if he met Askren again. Good to see he gets another chance after getting screwed, sucks for his record, though.

I totally disagree. I dont think he got screwed. If you watch the tape, his argument about his hand blocking the other side of the choke (which he argued at the post fight press conference) is incorrect as his blocking hand was outside Askren's choke, making it ineffective and not a block at all. Additionally, his face is purple and his left leg goes limp. Now, either he was only out for a second, or he was faking it so Askren would start to release the choke, allowing him to scramble back to his feet, similar to the CB Dollaway fake tap to get the guy to release some pressure. Everyone knows what CB did, no matter how hard he pleads to the ref that it was bullshit. I think a second fight with Askren ends the same way. Askren's submission game, coupled with his wrestling is too much for Thomas. The whole "controversy" imo is bull.
