Stephen Thompson MMA Career and UFC record

Stephen Thompson made his MMA debut on the 5th of February in 2010, just 6 days before his 27th birthday. He took on Jeremy Joles in a promotion called Fight Party. In just a year and a half’s time, Thompson had cruised to a 5-0 record.

This landed him an opportunity in the UFC. He made his UFC debut against Dan Stittgen at UFC 143. Wonderboy made an impressive start to his UFC career by knocking out Stittgen in the very first round of the fight.

However, Thompson lost his very next fight via. unanimous decision. He had faced Matt Brown at UFC 145.

Following this loss, Thompson went on an unbelievable 7-fight win streak. This earned him a title shot against then-welterweight champion Tyron Woodley.

The pair fought it out in an absolute war at UFC 205. The match ended in a draw, and Woodley got to keep his title.

Wonderboy tried again at UFC 209. This time Woodley somehow got past him, via. majority decision. He then beat Jorge Masvidal via. unanimous decision before going on to lose to Darren Till via. unanimous decision.

Against Anthony Pettis (In March 2019), Thompson suffered the first knockout loss of his career. He has bounced back since that loss and has earned two back-to-back wins over Vicente Luque and Geoff Neal.

However, Wonderboy was pegged back by two straight losses. Nonetheless, he got back to winning ways in December 2022 with a win over Holland. He is now set to face Michael Pereira at UFC 291.

Thompson’s MMA record currently reads 17 wins, 8 losses and 1 draw.
