Summary

Matt and Jim are joined by UFC welterweight contender Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson on today’s episode of UFC Unfiltered! Thompson begins the show with a story on how his “Wonderboy” nickname sparked a friendship with actor and musician Jack Black before going in depth about his renowned karate style and the benefits it provides to him and other fighters inside the cage. After sharing his thoughts on headlining a UFC Fight Night this December against Kevin Holland, Wonderboy uses his kickboxing expertise to predict the middleweight title fight between Israel Adesanya and Alex Pereira at UFC 281. As Wonderboy explains what to expect from the two middleweights, Matt reiterates why he thinks Adesanya won’t be phased by his rival despite failing to beat Pereira in both of their kickboxing fights they had against each other. The guys finish the show talking Halloween costumes and spooky stories before ultimately diving into their favorite shows they’re currently watching.
