I'll never forget the interviewer asking Stephen if his students knew how lucky they were to have a UFC fighter as their coach and WonderBoy corrected him and said "No, I'm the lucky one."

Just continue to sit behind your keyboard thinking your important and leaving ignorant comments while Stephen Thompson is out there actually making a difference in people’s lives.

@@YA-vd9zo plus his style and high skill level allow him the comfortability to get away with it..his head movement, footwork are really good...plus his kicks are fast enough to use a hook kick as a jab...he usually keeps them at a kicking distance and makes them chase him,once they get frustrated they over reach and end up like Robert Whitaker...but it is a style thing,alot of karate based fighters have hands low(once they are high level enough) your partially right about td defense but it's also for balance on the in and out tempo of footwork..karate and taekwondo require more distance for techniques.thai styles however are more plotting,flat footed,hands high...for instance look at aldo or Shogun...plus try generating a side kick or hook kick with hands up,good luck😂

@@chadhumphries1445 Fighters do sometimes keep their hands lower than normal to avoid takedowns but that is usually accompanied by a wide, low stance. If you feel you got the guys number and see his strikes from a mile away but you´re struggling to stuff his takedowns it makes sense to lower your guard especially if you feel your arms or shoulders getting tired and pumped from the grappling.

Let's go Wonderboy! keep up the informative content. I've been implementing these techniques in my gym! thank you!

Man of many talents, big fan, love the channel. Thanks so much guys 👊.

Thanks for sharing, Stephen! All the best

Thanks for all the videos Wonderboy. They are really helpful.

Love your energy Wonderboy!

Thank you so much Mr. Wonderboy

November 2nd Wonderboy gonna be back on top of the pack

Brilliant, great attitude and energy.

This guy! I've never seen anyone this humble. Keep doing what you're doing.

the last six months I have been strength training my shoulders and it has increased my punching endurance to a whole new level

I only came across Wonderboy's channel today - by accident - but I've already watched three of his videos. Me and my daughter love his cage name...definitely the best and he's such an unassuming chap that you wouldn't think he could stop you instantly in your tracks, but if he DID hit you then you get the feeling he'd be polite about it.

Brilliant form. Thank you. 🙏🏾

Ill be watching your fight to check out the techniques youve been teaching. Love this channel. Great man

Great videos, motivating me to start training again after recovering from an injury. Good luck in your upcoming fight wonderboy 💪🏽

Cool video. Very helpful. Thank you.

Literally just the best dude. We all love you wonderboy. You give me inspiration.

Hello wonderboy, thanks for technique, inspiration and motivation bro

Another top quality video from the Wonderboy himself (and his team) please keep them coming I'm learning so much, can't tell you how much I appreciate it!!!

I love your style champ! Thanks for sharing your techniques...

You are a true inspiration wonderboy! Greetings from germany!

Great vid. Love the background music.

Thank you Stephen

Love this channel!

This man is an amazing example of what a man should be. Everytime I listen to him, I think about how proud his dad must be of him.

These tips are definitely helpful what a legend. 💯

Stoked for this one, thanks my man.

I'm asking questions you already answered. Lol I just found your channel 2 weeks ago. Love it, thanks wonderboy

Great tips!

i cant see luque beating you. your skill set and your dignity prevails, you are a great role model for the sport and a genuine human being, ill be spectating :)

This was an excellent video, my man. Appreciate the video.

Your content is incredible it's great to see a future hall of famer giving coaching tips

Awesome pointers brother. Much respect from Coachella, Ca

God Bless you brother. Much Love

Tuesday is my favorite day of the week because of these videos!

Man you're such a nice guy I really appreciate you 👍🏼

I love Wonderboy. One of my dream match up is a kickboxing fight between him and Cedric Doumbe.

Will always be one of my favorite fighters. Honestly Stephen videos have inspired me to train again I’ll never make it but I’ve always had a dream to be in the ufc. But Stephen is a legendary fighter!

Absolute warrior!

Love the tips

Hey Stephen just wanna say really appreciate the videos man! must be hardwork with you being a full time athlete and other commitments but they're really appreciated! Good luck with your next fight mate Love from the UK

How Freaking Awesome is this guy Thank you Wonderboy

WB you a beast, had to slow down the video just to take in everything. Love the content!

Thanks for the tips @wonderboy

Thanks coach

Wonderboy you da man!

Thanks Steve. Always refreshed by your attitude. My favorite tool for focus and speed is the old small bag of rice hanging on a string trick. Once it starts swinging it really forces anticipation and quickness. I use a old sock so small about fist size. Used to add BBs to toughen up the knuckles. I'd close my eyes then open them very much like the hat trick. This was years before the Star Wars trainer. Feel the force.

What a classy guy! Legend in the making!

You are the best wonderboy thompson.

You’re a really good teacher just as much as a fighter bro💯 str8 legend

Awesome tips, I'll bring this back to the dojang for sure!

Just subscribed! One of the best overall good guys in mma and society in general. Thanks for being a great role model for the youth stephen. My 7 year old niece is your biggest fan in the world. All the best from Alabama brother!

Thank you so much

You know its a good day when Wonderboy's videos go up!

Thank You!!!

Damn so glad we got a got a pro fighter connecting with his fans

You're the best Wonderboy, thanks for the motivating message on instagram, we love you bro

Love your vids keep up the good work❤️👍🏽

Can’t wait to use these!

Thanks from Brazil.

Been watching wonderboy since IFL days, he was knocking dudes out left and right just crazy. He's gunna be wearing that belt soon!

Stephen.. My favorite fighter.. you're too charismatic and smart for this fight game!! Please stay healthy!!!

Thank you for clarifying on the weighted punching. When I was in high school I used 10 and 15 lb dumbbells, which was super effective for my muscles and speed, but definitely messed up my wrist haha. Luckily I stopped before I damaged the ligaments too badly lol

Great stuff.

Excellent,,,,thank U...

Let's go, wonderboy. from South Korea.

What a good guy

I love this guy

Thanks wonderboy god bless you with the a power of grayscull bro.. so no can match ya...thanks a lot for sharing.

Wonderboy the coolest mma fighter on the planet, Can't wait till Nov

Great content! Thanks for sharing these Stephen. I will definitely incorporate them into my training.

I followed you from kickboxing to the UFC! You definitely defeated Woodley and yes he dropped Wonderboy with a massive shot but knockdowns don't win fights. Especially in MMA. I want a wonderboy hard hat! That's amazing!

Knockdowns do win fights because it makes the round a 10-8 instead of a 10-9. So in a close fight that knockdown can be the deciding factor.

Man I love you fighting style. I trained in taekwondo growing up and recently started Muay Thai little over a year ago. My coach “shout out to shaun” he trained with muhsin corbbrey and he’s working with me of keeping that great balance of taekwondo but the brutal force of Muay Thai. It’s a difficult process but I watch your tape and try to get the best from you and incorporate it into my style too. Anyhow, I’m in fight camp as well so I hope you win you’re and I hope I win mine!!
