Thompson's resume is actually so underrated. Close fights with Woodley and Till Schools Masvidal, Geoff Neal, Luque, No Roids Hendricks, and Welterweight Whittaker.

​@AJ Martin Depends on the outcome, if he wins he will most likely have one last push, if he loses then maybe. I don't think there should be any push for him to retire though, he has kept great care of himself for a fighter, only ever knocked out once and seems to have all his facultys. Maybe his last two performances haven't been great but he did make Vicente Luque and Geof Neal look silly as well.

fr bro the only remaining fight i’m actually excited for is buckley vs curtis. the rest of the ppv is a shit show. no title fight, no glover, no rematch, no gustafson, no fun

Watched ufc from the start, Thompson is one of my favorite fighters.

I love both of these guys. It’s definitely got fight of the year written all over it. Let’s all be honest Wonderboy is by far the most exciting fighter to ever step foot in the cage out of any organization he literally keeps you on the edge of your seat, the entire fight. With that being said, unfortunately for Holland, there’s levels to this game Wonderboy is most likely going to win by a massive, dominant decision, 50-45. In addition, we all know wonderboy is the goat in striking. Also, I forgot to add as for Holland this is gonna be the hardest fight that he’s ever had in his career, even harder than his last fight by far.

@@aidenog7380 There are a lot of things in many styles that don't work well for mma yet people train them and add them to their game. Kevin's base is in san soo, which is derived from a style called choy li fut and is more optimized for combat sports. I think in the coming years you'll see more and more fighters adding traditional techniques into their game, there just needs to be people crazy and curious enough like Holland and Wonderboy to do the exploring of these arts.

Kevin is obviously gonna test his wrestling out on Steven but a couple of months is not enough to get his wrestling to where he wants it to be. Wonderboy by unanimous decision.

I donno what it is but everytime a fighter says "I'm gonna knock him out" it just doesn't happen 80% of the time

Thought he quit

Wonderboy will make Kevin turn into a wrestler

Is this Kevin going to welterweight or wonderboy going to middle weight

@sharifahroha956

Жыл бұрын

Welterweight

The only time WB got beat on the feet was vs Darren Till, Tyron Woodley, & Anthony Pettis. Kevin Holland is longer than Darren Till, faster than Tyron Woodley, and more wild than Anthony Pettis. He's literally the fusion of all the guys who have beaten Wonderboy in striking. AND he's great from a front headlock (2 wins by guillotine and last win by Darce) if Wonderboy gets dropped and shoots.

Why I see Holland's style more lean and refinded, and less stiff than Thompson??

Wonderboy by decision

Just don't them any wrestlers or grapplers, and the matches will be fun.

Kevin Holland's entire corner should be suspended for a year........they did not protect their fighter at all. Why the hell does the fighter have to stop the fight after a broken hand and all that punishment in round 4? They guy could not defend himself or fight back......hoping for a damn miracle could have cost this man his life!!!

Why is Thompson ranked. And I hope Kevin is working on his wrestling. Izzy does not have any wrestling background and he made it work. So get to work Kevin

Why would they put big mouths racist slurs at the end?
