Breaking Down My TOP 5 UFC FINISHES!! Wonderboy Reacts

[@hard2hurt]

#5: decides not to headkick to avoid hurting his opponent, #4 apologizes during the finish for a groin strike, #3 happy his opponent went on to be undefeated for a long time, #2 rides to the airport with his opponent in a taxi... NMF all the way up until somebody INSULTS KARATE... then it's murderkick time.

[@brad3741]

Your onto something here. Even in this video when Wonderboy said " this guy was making fun of karate " you can see a very subtle look of disgust and anger in his face lol.

[@tripocular]

Truly I must know, how hard are you to hurt good sir?

[@johnstover4584]

I know who all five of those guys are too lol.

[@xGettinxMoneyx]

Him and Max Holloway always been really good for this sport.. evens out all the negativity and shit talking lol they’re the “good” guys

[@SenseiSeth]

Honestly the ability to control your heel and move it from the chin to the temple during a FULL BLAST SPIN MID FIGHT is wild. You’re an inspiration 👏

[@phantom2faddd242]

Most definitely now we just need to see him fight Izzy that would be epic

[@proteus2103]

@George Washington republicans are so creepy

[@georgedavies4473]

What a sexy style fight Izzy vs wonder boy is

[@topshot2787]

Even when he absolutely smokes somebody he is still a class act. Never trash talks. Lets his fists and feet do the talking. A real gentleman. Never a sore loser or makes any excuses in defeat. But still a karate master and tough as nails. Definitely in my top 3 of all time ufc fighters. All the best from lancashire uk

[@harrisonkane1288]

Like a modern day bruce lee 🤣

[@trey9578]

Wonderboy literally gave pity to his opponent in a fight “I didn’t wanna kick him because he definitely would’ve taken brain damage “ What a Legend

[@patriciajin6206]

Honor in martial art!

[@patriciajin6206]

@George Washington Damn bro, that's crazy but I still can't find who tf asked.

[@lucaslee6999]

@@patriciajin6206 🤝thank you for you service

[@harrisonkane1288]

Not pitty, mercy and restraint. He had already won. Bashing that guy's face in with a spinning hook kick would have been totally fucked up over kill. This is how we should all aim to be. Absolutely beautiful and shows the power of a proper martial arts tradition. The difference between a warrior and a monster.

[@Soulseeologia]

Totally 💯

[@wholelottasouls]

The spinning back kick that you hit Hendricks with is genuinely just perfect technique absolutely beautiful.

[@matrixdeprogrammed1271]

Hard to master that kick and land it so it was a perfect job.

[@jakobandersson6187]

Wonderboy is looking more and more like his dad.

[@matrixdeprogrammed1271]

@L7 Open No he wouldnt for that reason he’s a good guy with a sense of humour.

[@Gh0st_0723]

Lucky dude, the Genes in that family are amazing loll

[@bunnywade97]

Call him wonderdad

[@tevinslawson]

That last knockout was one of the most satisfying ones I have ever seen live! The way he was trying to trash talk karate, or pretty much just traditional martial arts in general, was the cherry on top

[@Kinosis79]

It's crazy all of the high level guys Wonderboy not only beat, but finished. He beat a bunch of ufc champs.

[@blackligxt9413]

The Dan Stittgen knockout always mesmerised me, it was mind bending for a long time lol. literally inspirational

[@XxDaniel317xX]

John McCarthy was like "FINISH HIM!!!" had me dying haha. Thanks Wonderboy, great finishes!

[@MassAmorphous]

😂😂

[@grantmetzger7161]

I've trained recently with Dan Stittgen, the dude still talks about that knock out, in a good way. Trying to help the younger fighters learn from his mistakes and all around enjoying the casual regional scene.

[@marcioassis1482]

How many knockouts do you have with that "fade to the side, over the shoulder roundhouse kick" like with Dan Stittgen. Feels like you are doing the exact same move since your first kickbox fight! and it works!

[@daquanbranch2624]

When you learn traditional martial arts that involve belts you get taught new kick combos idk about wb but the jab straight fade off head kick combo I learned it when I was an orange belt the 4th belt you get in tkd I’m a second degree black belt

[@robbiemurray2797]

It's a favourite of Robert Whittaker too

[@kylekonopka8292]

Wonderboy saying he didn’t want to give that one guy brain damage made me think of Khabib not wanting to armbar Gaethje

[@max_c3318]

Did some karate when I was younger and you were my inspiration to start training again, I started Muay Thai about a month ago and I love it, I’m trying to model my kicks after you, you are truly an inspiration!

[@joecop9887]

“My heel was actually sore after that fight” If your heel was sore, what was felt at the receiving end? Geez.

[@bblvrable]

Concussion would be my guess.

[@spideymcgee4718]

I remember when you knocked out Jake with that spinning heel kick and his brain sent a shockwave through his system, shutting it down. Perfect way to prove your karate to him.

[@harrisonkane1288]

I've never seen a fighter with such honor and restraint. You are like a modern day bruce lee. It's time for another title shot! I wanna see you wearing that belt so bad! You bring honor to the traditional martial arts and show their beauty and power. You inspire me to train harder every day. Keep up the great work!

[@sukhdevr3489]

We NEEDED to have Condit vs Wonderboy. 2 of the most talented, exciting and dynamic strikers in UFC history.

[@FemboiMars]

Wonder Boy: *adjusts aim mid spinning kick* Me: *stands up too fast and makes gurgling noises*

[@ricardo07jimenez]

Wonderboy need to see you back in the cage ASAP. You should have gotten the Masvidal fight , Both Jorge and you , coming off losses to the top 2 ranked

[@ricardo07jimenez]

And Edwards should be fighting burns since there both on winning streaks . It’s not rocket science

[@Ninja-iu4gg]

My favorite part of the jake fight is that u can hear you’re dad say “spin” I love that I love the hook kick

[@bentoncushing8693]

[@counselorchandru]

Karateka here. Absolutely fell in love with the fade out mawashi geri when you first did it in MMA. Been a fan since then!

[@yashyadav7692]

You should breakdown the burns fight what went wrong

[@mcgunga8291]

that’s too sad tho, burns fought like such a bitch :(

[@MrRobjs83]

simple, Burns didn't want to stand with him cause he knew who the superior striker was

[@victorchan4415]

@@mcgunga8291 Burns fought a smart fight. You NEVER fought wonderboy at distance

[@eetfuk3571]

@@victorchan4415 facts though. As much as I really hate how Wonderboy lost against Burns, you don't wanna let Wonderboy get his distance, you'll never reach him again once he measured the distance.

[@NBTKDA]

Watching you dismantle Hendricks is one of my all time favourite MMA memories!

[@oldbreed2572]

Love u dude a real inspiration but it would be cool to brake down when you don't win. Be interesting to know what you go though mentality and learn what to to different.

[@IrishTechnicalThinker]

High above the mucky muck, castles made of clouds. There sits Wonderboy sitting oh so proudly.

[@jacobwagner1611]

Watching this makes me realize why nobody ever wanted to fight Wonderboy. Nowadays it’s different but I believe I’ve even heard Joe Rogan say it’s hard for Thompson to find opponents because his style is just so unique and hard to train for... also super deadly...

[@fadhil2446]

[@phansaxtiger]

That was the sickest spinning back head kick knockouts I’ve eva seen. I always wanted to learn it but still feels super awkward haha

Easy to use if you have flexibility but hard to land flush like that last KO.

Amazing highlights and the caliber of those opponents makes it even more amazing 🤩

[@ajones9740]

Wats up mr stephen ..your one of the most honorable men in the ufc and i respect your character as well as your abilities....the gilbert fight..alot of punches to the back of the head but moving along... I think keeping your lead arm fixed in a 90 degree angle and use the shoulder blade to roll the arm back n forth before a jab...shortens the distance..rotate wrist like a corkscrew extend and turn hips and to get power behind it..when you roll the shoulder blade forward keeping that arm stiff it looks like the jab making it an effortless feint just be adding a slight pendulum bounce The burns fight you bounced but there was no pendulum..slightly bouncing forward outside and backwards inside..manipulates distance and slightly changing angle As i stand up fighter i dont think you need to get better on the ground i think you need to implement leg locks and sweeps purely as tools to stand back up You need some elbow combinations from the inside..theres some wing chun exercises that would make you great at this get a muy thui trainer just for that 🙏🏾bless

Wonderboy the type of guy that instead of dismantling his opponent with his kicks, tries to gently touch his opponent with his hands to push him to the ground

[@bblvrable]

[@minhducnguyen9276]

When I show my trainer your fights, he said if you get controlled by someone like Thompson in the fight, you might as well accept the KO to end it quick because it would be even more mentally exhausting if you try to delay the inevitable

[@stebrown7939]

"Aw they didnt even show it" .... Wonderboy then flips us the bird, NMF style

[@CJ2KALLDAYEVERYDAY]

Forever a top ufc fighter of mine. Such a great guy, would be an honor to shake your hand someday.

[@TheUrbanBeekeepers]

WB vs the Ghost of Juicy Hendricks is one of the best fights of all time.

[@eetfuk3571]

One of the most satisfying win though. Dude beating fighters with his juice then he met GSP and arguably lost to Lawler twice. Wonderboy and Costa just sent him to retirement for once and for all.
