announcer said, 'Thomas has been in the business of destroying athletic opponents for more than a quarter of a century. He's a master performer, an unbeatable showman, a great promoter and a superior instructor. He's a champion in all areas of his profession." Jay C. "Champ" Thomas has been an icon on the American boxing scene for decades. His books have been a step-by step road map to success for countless boxers, whether they were beginners, amateurs, professionals or just someone who wanted to know more about boxing and the art of self-defense.

Over the years, he gained superstar status in boxing, in training boxers, in managing boxers and as a
promoter. In addition, he gained the same superstar status in wrestling and boombattlc. winning two world wrestling championships and five world boombattle championships.
