I am Kazakh, but I’ve always been and will be Wonderboy’s fan. As much as I was happy for our guy, I was equally sad for Wonderboy. Wish you a fast recovery!
it's so good to see kazakh guys with decent English 🙏

Me too
I was pretty sure I heard that elbow shot 🤢 as for the workout, i think I’ll just ask Santa for my Christmas abs
Santa is handing out abs?! I mean, I have ABS on my car, but not on my body, and now I'm seriously questioning my priorities.
Same
Sensei Seth gettin implants this year
If santa could give away abs don't you think he would get some for himself?
Win or loss Wonderboy will always be one of my favorite fighters ever. He’s just an all around great guy and great role model. Much love!
WB should fight colby and knock him the f out for disrespecting him and his father all he can do is wrestle
@@mrbigbankuchiface_3352 yeah but that is exactly what WB hates...
@@mrbigbankuchiface_3352 bad stylistic fight for WB Thompson but he might just be able to beat Colby at this point. Colby looked washed in there against Leon. If he can defend most of or at least some of his takedowns then I like his chances.
My son and I flew in for the fight, our first UFC event. Right after the submission, I looked down and saw him in tears. I only share this because it shows how inspiring you are to your fans. Someone you’ve never met, may never meet, has such an emotional connection that the loss felt real in a deep and meaningful way. He only wants your success to continue, as we all do, and can’t wait for your next competition.
These so called fighters, dare not stand up with Thompson. So they just wrestle him..
@@TheKing-tl8si It's MMA not boxing, cope
@@TheKing-tl8si incase you forgot, the UFC is an MMA organisation! maybe your thick skull hasn't comprehended what exactly MMA is, so let me break it down for you; MIxed Martial Arts where you can use any form of fighting that is legal! So in this case wrestling and getting a submission against a fighter is perfectly legal and the right thing to do! If Wonderboy didn't wanna get submitted, maybe he shouldve worked a little more on his takedown defense and submission defense! Cope harder little guy
The difference in your response to a loss compared to Colby's is on a different Universe. Truly a class act and a real American! Thank you Wonder Boy!
Colby acted like Wonderboy early in his career and they tried to cut him and end his career .

Выздоравливай! Уважаем тебя и привет тебе с KZ 🇰🇿.
Оставайся таким же простым и скромным, по этому у тебя появились фанаты и с Казахстана.
Tough loss to an amazing fighter. I'll continue to enjoy watching you fight for as long as you do.
Get well soon, I dont care that you lost, you will always be one of my favorite ufc fighters
I'm Kazakh, but in the UFC game I always choose you. thanks for the fight. I was rooting for Shavkat, but I have a lot of respect for you as a fighter and a person. I wish you a speedy recovery. you are a real fighter.
I've been on the Shavkat train for awhile, but there was no way I could ever root against Wonderboy! He didn't want to strike with you, Stephen. There's a moral victory in that, in my opinion. I wish you and the rest of the Thompson family a Merry Christmas, a quick recovery from your foot injury, and I hope you get to smash Colby sometime in early 2024!
Only Kevin Holland was crazy enough to strike with him and he almost die there.
To be fair, Shavkat tore a ligament in his ankle like 6 weeks before the fight so he couldn't really throw kicks and stuff, but either way, I wouldn't blame anyone for not wanting to strike with WB lol
I couldn't watch it. Hate seeing a great fighter malled by grapplers. I always cheer for the striker .
@@dylan104100%
@@dylan104 yeah, despite what the fans say about "cuddling" it's the only way to fight wonderboy without looking stupid.
Even though you didn't win, I respect you for even taking that fight with Shavkat. Thanks for an amazing fight and thanks for the workout. Keep your head up man ❤
So much respect for you accepting the fight with that undefeated, underrated beast.
I still cheered for you Wonderboy!
I really hope that Stephan doesn’t get discouraged about this loss. He isn’t like Tony where he can’t keep up with the new guys, Stephan hasn’t lost his edge on the feet at all.
This is a REAL fighter, not like the guy who talks about the fighters life to do absolutely nothing in a fight. I wish the best recovery for you and a merry Christmas from Venezuela. Oss!
You are legend brother. Thanks for all those years for being role model by showing what a true martial artist should be.
Greetings to Wonderboy from Almaty Kazakhstan! I think it was a great fight and Shafkhat made the right decision, when he didn’t risk in standup with you and went straight for wrestling, as Wonderboy is extremely dangerous on the feet. I really glad that both fighters did not receive a lot of damage, wish you all the best and big respect for being great athlete and wonderful personality.
Win or lose, it's always an immense pleasure to watch you fight. Hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas!
The fact that youre still out here putting out quality content with a smile even after a loss shows your true character. Always rooting for you. Thanks for teaching us something great every week.
I will always tune in when wonderboy fights.
doesn’t matter if you win or lose Stephen the UFC and the sport as a whole wouldn’t be the same without you brother
Rakhmonov's game plan was pretty good pushing you to the fence and holding your leg like that,you did what you could and you gave him a better fight than anyone before you
Nah Geoff gave him the best fight, quit glazing.
Shavkat tore his ankle 6 weeks before the fight.
That is why Shavkat:
1) couldn't kick
2) couldn't shoot for a fast takedown
3) could only stand on his knees when wrestling on the ground.
4) couldn't ground & pound WB from erect position.
5) couldn't control WB with his legs while making that final jaw crank.
If Shavkat had damaged his ankle during the fight it would have been his first loss (loss by TKO from Wonderboy. 😂😂😂)
WB by TKO would be fantastic betting line in this case.
WB is the nicest person in UFC by the way.
6:36 Love Wonderboys humor and humility lol always enjoy the content and hope you keep it up and have a Merry Christmas!
You 🐐’ed wonderboy & a mentor for life. You getting hurt makes the real men sad but it’s takes a real great man to do what you do every vid no matter what we appreciate and love you wonderboy
Didn't get the result you wanted but seeing you walk out with Tenacious D was unforgettable. You're an amazing role model and an incredible person to look up to, and I'm sure your students feel the same. I'm not getting off the Wonderboy train until the wheels fall off! God bless you and your family, recover nicely, and have a wonderful Christmas!
WB you have been one of my favorite fighters for most of the last decade...your additude you display on your channel and in the ring is always one of respect... keep doing what you do... remember, never lose, either win or learn!
It is such a testament to Wonderboy's character that, of all his many physical and mental skills, one of the things that he could teach a masterclass in is how to lose with grace, honor, and humility, and how to keep pushing forward. Just the epitome of the martial arts mindset and a guy every new fighter should strive to emulate.
How you win shows your skills, how you lose shows your character.
Wonderboy is the best. All of this content for free on UA-cam. Other fighters charge people for this knowledge. Much appreciated. Fan for life.
Dude you were SO CLOSE to making it to the third round!! Wonderboy is now a tough old man 😅 you did great, it was great seeing you perform out there
I've done a lot of progress thanks to your footwork video. You're not only a great fighter but also an amazing teacher and a great guy. Wish you a fast recovery !
Stephen your humility and can-do attitude is a real inspiration! Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
stephen you always still exceed everyones expectations in your performances. so much love and respect man. noone wants to see ya get hurt. but you are that good you dont. cant wait to see the next one. MVP vs wonderboy lets go!
love u wonderboy, y’all’s fight was awesome, very respectful. will be looking forward to your next fight
Our Hero! Never stop Wonderboy!
Glad to see that joyful smile again. I hope you heal up soon! Merry Christmas Wonderboy, much love
Man i just came home from the pen and this guy is just a breathe of fresh air ive been a fan for years even though we are completely different in every way ive realized lately that he is exactly wat i want to be.. strong, smart and a top level kickboxer but mostly he is just a genuine great guy! He helps children he is always positive towards other people i could say alot more but im terrible at expressing myself. Point is even a guy from the other side can see this is a great man and he has definitely inspired me
You're still the man no matter what Wonderboy you are a huge inspiration to so many, an incredible athlete and the most entertaining fighter in the UFC. In the fans eyes you're already the champ 💪 hope you have a quick recovery and a huge win in your next fight man! Cheers!!!
Love from the UK Stephen. You’re an inspiration. Best of luck on your recovery and looking forward to your next fight 👊
love you wonderboy !!! Your vibes are unmatched 💯💪🏼🔥
You’re a legend brotha! Hope your foot gets better asap

Thanks for the time and effort you put into these videos! 👍
You’re the best!!! I’ve been wanting a new core workout. Thank you for giving me a great start!
wish you a quick recovery
Mr. Thompson, I was in the third row when I saw your. I yelled out your name and cheered you on after you walked out the cage that night because you’re still one of my heroes. The fact that you still smiled out there was such an inspiration. Keep on trucking, Wonderboy!
You the man. Thanks for the videos
My favorite and most entertaning UFC fighter, also a great role model! Keep up the good work Wonderboy!
We are all cheering for you mate! you are the best 💪
Was cheering you on the whole time! Tenacious D was a win in my book for sure! How freaking cool! Love ya!!
I love how wonderboy is always happy no matter what happens, somehow it really makes my day

You fought well and as always with honor. You’re an inspiration to us traditional martial artists that do MMA & Kickboxing
Valiant effort Wonderboy, respect for taking the tough fight against Shavkat 🫡 Happy Holidays 😊❄️🎄
Win or lose, you are da bomb Stephen! Appreciate you! Hope the foot gets better soon!
Great video Wonderboy! 👍🏼
You are the man! Hello from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿
Stephen you're a true martial artist!
Always great to watch you fight wonderboy, minor setback. At 40 your still showing improvement in your game, that takedown defence sheesh🥵
Tough loss man. Hope you heal up quick and are back to normal!
You've always been our champion
Luv you Wonderboy. Win or lose I am a fan.
Dude your attitude is epic!
This vids perfect injured my ankle grappling, thank you wonderboy
No matter what WB keeps his head always working hard. Youre an inspiration as well as my favorite fighter!
Love you bro, loved seeing the walkout & fight! Sucks that you didn’t win but you’re still a top 5 fighter for sure man!
Glad your healthy champ!
Love your energy bro.
Yo wtf I just rolled my ankle really bad today in basketball pickup game and now I get to see wonderboy tell me about it that’s actually awesome❤
Hate to see wonderboy lose, but love to see you get back on that octagon as soon as possible, so hopefully that foot is not broken, wich it seems like so, anyways i wish you a speedy recovery!
As always you rock
My entire family of 6 love watching you fight. Unfortunately a match up that was just determined to end up hugging. He couldn't stand and bang.
You're the man
Nice work!
You’re still my son and my favorite fighter! He made a drawing of you and sweet T and wanted to give to you in Vegas but didn’t have a chance to meet you. I’m glad you got jack black to walk you out! My husband also suffering from a broken foot and rib so I told him to watch your video on how to train with broken foot haha. Hope you have a good recovery and it isn’t displaced.
We ride with Wonderboy forever
Its all good brother we still ❤ ya! Happy holidays
You’re the best! I bought the ppv just to watch you. That dude is a monster but I’ll always watch your fights!
Merry Christmas my friend
Always so upbeat. Even after a loss and an injury. Wish I had half his enthusiasm.
Wonderboy Army 4 life 🔥 🔥.
Wonderboy you are the frickin man! Every exchange with Shavkat you landed clean and countered him nicely. Fair play to Shavkat for doing what he did, cuz he sure wasn’t winning on the feet
Thanks guises! The best faihter! 🇰🇿
Still a big fan of your style,still one of the best in this business and let me tell you,for 40 you still fast,congrats,get well soon and Merry Christmas and have a wonderful 2024 !
