A Fighting Champion...Who Is Deaf - Thomas Paull, Multiple Kickboxing & MMA Champion

Being deaf from birth would have restricted plenty of people in their goals...not Thomas Paull. Born & raised by deaf parents and with a deaf brother, Thomas was brought up to not let his disadvantage get in the way. Although his initial passion was rugby union, it was in an Mixed Martial Arts gym that Thomas found a home, and since then he has travelled the world winning titles in multiple disciplines. The sport has had to adjust to him, he's that good! Thomas has also made it onto the UFC 'Contender Series', where he fought in front of the biggest name in the sport, Dana White. With help from Sean the interpreter, this is just the best conversation that will leave you feeling both humbled and empowered. His dad even jumps on & is such a character! Watch one of his latest fights here, where he becomes the first deaf fighter on the 'Cage Warriors' circuit!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
