JOSH “THE PUNK” THOMSON Josh Bl WhMMAyou.com got to speak with Josh “The Punk” Thomson. Check out what Thomson has to say regarding his June 27th bout with Gilbert Melendez, his feud with Frank Shamrock, and how to fight BJ Penn. MMAyou.com: First, how are you doing?
Thomson: I’m doing good. How are you?
MMAyou.com: I’m good, thank you. How did you get your nickname “The Punk”?
Thomson: You know (laughs), it just kind of Just being me I guess. It just comes natural. The things I say, the way I come across, my approach isn’t always the best when I’m talking to somebody. I guess the first time you meet me you possibly don’t like me but once you get to know me I think, you know, people start realizing I have a good heart and I’m very loyal to my friends. I think they finally see through, it’s just the way I talk I guess so that’s how it all came about.
MMAyou.com: How’s the fight with you and Gil going to go down?
Thomson: It’s just gonna be explosive man! I don’t know how else to say it. I’ve said it over and over again, the feeling out process is over between him and I. We’ve trained together, we know each other, he’s probably going to make a couple of little tweaks to his game, as have I, that we remember from past experiences on what’s gonna happen. We’ve made those kinks and hopefully it works. We’ll see what happens. It should be a very explosive fight.
Very fast paced! That’s the one thing people need to remember. It’s gonna be a very fast paced fight. Read more.. Get your Strikeforce tickets through Josh Thomson by calling (650) 504-6534 ask for Ashley or email punktix@gmail.com Thank you. Mario SerranoPublicistmmapublicist@aol.com408-607-5756
