Thomas, the viral ring girl from the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight, previously attended the University of Alabama.
On Thursday, she shared some new photos on Instagram that poke fun at the average SEC couple craze.
For those who are unaware, the saying goes that Southeastern Conference schools have a lot of gorgeous-looking women who end up in relationships with men who have incredible beards and/or who might be overweight as well.
The standard is always a hot-looking woman and a less-than-good-looking guy in a relationship. Together, these two make up the “Average SEC couple.”

Viral Ring Girl Sydney Thomas Broke Up With Boyfriend Just Before Stardom
Thomas, who rose to fame as the ring girl during the Mike Tyson and Jake Paul fight on Netflix, was in a relationship.
In an interview with Nick Nayersina in December 2024, Thomas shared how she broke up with her longtime boyfriend even though they had no issues.
“I literally broke up with my boyfriend,” she started out with her statement.
Sydney Thomas then revealed she “had no problems with him at all, like he was great.”
When Nick asked if this was before her rise to fame, Sydney said, “Yes, this was right before summer. I ended the relationship because I felt the need to spend more time alone and discover who I truly am.”
