I’m with you that Thomas likely would have lost even without the injury in that particular fight. The thing about Din, though, is that most people don’t realize that he’s been fighting over his natural fighting weight his entire career. Dude is easily a featherweigt. They just didn’t have much of a division for those guys throughout most of his career. He’s had success at 145 since he’s dropped but I still think he beats a whole lot of 155’ers out there. On Saturday all that matters is how he’ll do in this fight at 160 pounds.
