YOU BETTER PUT SOME RESPEK ON WONDERBOYS NAME
That kick was so perfect, so wonderful, so beautiful. It was......legendary
Amazing how Wonder Boy has worked his ass off since he started. Hes 32 now and in his prime. Hard work Pays off.. Future Champ.
I love him sooo muchh.!!!! I got his autograph
thompson is an unbelievable fighter, and his striking is out of this world
I've got a first class ticket on the Wonderboy hype train! All aboard, say hello to the future champ! KARATE STRONG!!!
Damn he called that headkick out too!
that headkick was awesome and the celebration was beast
This guy is AMAZING! He's really nice and deserves the best. He is my son's karate instructor and he's GREAT! :)
The nicest fighter ever with the most vicious strikes. I can watch him all day
its not just me agains him its me against me" well said lol
I remember watching that fight. That was one of the sickest kicks I've seen so far
I don't know whats more impressive the out of nowhere head kick KO or the spinny, flippy, victory dance/magic.
hope this kid goes far , fighting Matt brown is a big ask ,Brown is tuff as boots ,but i think this kid could be special
Awesome to have gsp among your side
"this is what we do and why we do it"......... loveeeeeee hearing that all the time!!!!
He has the best victory celebration. It looks so awesome.
I'm a fan.. Looking forward to seeing this guy rise up.
Make more of these videos!!! so awesome!
future champion! and when he becomes a champion im coming back to this video!
I've seen his other kickboxing videos, he's worth the hype. I want to see more from him in the ufc
Cant wait 4 next fight
Wonderboy is living a wonderful life.
gsp said it he´s gonna be ww champion

that was a very impressing... celebration.
Now thats what you call showmanship!!

Being Stephen wonderboy Thompson's ardent fan I'm extremely proud to be born the same day he was born on february 11. I love the dragon spin celebration every time he celebrates it after a win
Beast of a head kick.. and an even better flip!..
New Favorite Fighter!
Love that little jump in the end, ima do that after i do something cool
Best dismount after awesome ko ever.
he is amazing
Killer fighter with a great attitude!
4 years ago and he's still a beast

wow. That was sick
Been my new favorite fighter since his second fight in UFC. He will be the champ in 2016. Mark it down.
I Didn't Know Who This Guy Was Untill His Fight At UFC 143, And After Seeing That Head Kick And His Awkard Style Of Fighting And Technique I Certain He's A Future Champ!
the landing was BOSS too
He is a small welterweight.But he def. has some crazy striking credentials. Def. one of the up and coming fighters that i am most excited about.
Barboza's spinning wheel kick knockout of Terry Etim was beautiful. :)
That would be soooo cool!
that kick was thrown as quick as a jab. What a beast
your damn right im a Diaz fan, im also a fan of FIGHTERS that can FINISH FIGHTS and put EXCITING FIGHTS
lol exacty. Anderson Silva, Jose Aldo, Anthony Pettis, & Overeem. That round house kick was perfect thou. Looking forward to seeing The Wonder Boy vs The Immortal.
Watch out for this guy!
this is what we do and WHAAAAAAAAY WE DO IT!!!@!
Nice guy! Thats what real sport stars should be!
well thompson is undefeated in his kick boxing career and that's pretty impressive
very well said. I agree.
nicely said bro
He has a HUGE record in his other martial arts matches for other promotions (if I remember rightly not just kickboxing either?)
My Inspiration one for the future
Looking forward to seeing him fight in 145!
That dude is a full on NINJA, did you see him land with almost no sound after that flip?????? NINJA I say!
This guy is the real deal
He seems like a nice guy. I hope he does well
I like this guy
now THAT is what i call a victory pose. DAMN!
Stephen will go to the top
ahhhh that spin to cruch at the end was cool as fuck
6-0 in MMA and 56-0 in kickboxing, 40 via KO. He has 15 KB championship belts, black belt in Kenpo Karate, black belt in Jujutsu, black belt in KB and blue belt in BJJ. On top of that, trains with GSP.
He hasn't aged a day!!
Joe Rogan: "Who is the most dynamic striker in the UFC....Stephen Wonderboy Thompson" us:.....YEP! AGREED!
Right, sit before your computer screen and talk sit...we got a badass over here.
For a newcomer this is very impressive , we will see what silva can do this time around against chael .
10 years ago and wonderboy looks no different lol. He’s still just a wonderboy
Wow, knocked him out with such a short high kick. But I want to see more before I start believing the hype. It's pretty awesome his dad is his trainer too. Not many people you can trust more than your family.
Guy will be a SCARY in the near future!
he seems like one for the future
It’s so annoyed that he hasn’t became champion
very interesting fighting style.
I visualize a headkick........ BOOM BEST HEADKICK OUT THERE!
My favorite Stephen Thompson sign Sage
Lay off guys it's his second UFC fight not to mention everybody must be defeated but wonderboy has heart and stuck with it until the end I'm proud of him and if it shall be a win a loss or a tie I am a wonderboy fan until I die
I like this kid
I can't wait to see his impressive Victory Move, after he finishes Brown this saturday!!
He's a future champion.
This guy is a bad ass
Most exciting fighter in the ufc at this time
Excellent dispaly of striking. I would like to see a Thompson vs Johny Hendricks or Rory MacDonald. Hendricks is a pace pusher and MacDonald is a great sriker as well. I do like Matt Brown at UFC 145 though. In any event he showed discipline and composure in his first goaround in the UFC, not to mention a highlight reel finish. I hope to see his momentum continue.
Future champ right here
Precision.
i wouldn't have guessed he was a ufc fighter if i met him and i think thats cool
Future champion
Favourite fighter at the moment this guy. People hve been sleeping on him... not anymore, lol.
Lyoto, thompson, makdessi, anderson = Hell yeah!!!
I like him, seems good.
alot of people let matt ridel out of the equation....he is explosive and all out good
ufc has sure some plans for this dude in the future!
This was his only fight in the ufc but i think he is like 40-0 in any thing else. This was the fight that got him noticed by everyone else
Agreed. But I sorta feel like Che and Rory are meeting to early in their careers, Rory, Che, Thompson and Erick Silva I see all those guys running the division in the future.
I hung out with Stephen at carowinds the other week. He teaches at the place I do bjj. Such a sweetheart.
Anybody else see the irony in Stittgen falling to the ground like an "Anvil"?
Exactly. It was an impressive way to debut, but we don't everything just yet.
