That actually happens when you NEVER get fat, eat healthy, don't smoke or drink. I know this is virtually impossible to find in our society of excess. Minus hair loss/greying, the body ages nicely when not abused. People have forgotten how to eat these days. Everyone is a sugar addict (carbohydrates break down to simple sugars, and people eat WAY too much each day).
I remember reading about the bowl when Norris started the league. They did it so you can tell when you're at the edge...they didn't want a cage to get in the way of people's view. You'd also lose points if you were in the red I believe
Not he’s style !!!,it’s called sport karate was using it in the 70s,just raymond Daniels,michael page,and wonderboy are more athletic and flashy,even kids fight like it,
@@jamesmiles1328if anyone did not told me that he's using karate in mma, I wouldn't know He's style is so weird and unpredictable He just took karate to another level
@@meatheadscientist8061 I’ve done it for years everyone has that style,side stance in and out footwork,sidekicks blitz spinning kicks,watch raymond Daniels mvp they fight exactly the same,hands down low it’s normal,there just obviously the best and exciting fighters,but there was guys in the 70s doing the same bill wallace
It's hysterical how he's covered up and running from your attack and then he waves like it ain't nothing. Dude you gettin pounded be realistic with yourself.
Same! I feel like it'll be another clinic like the Luque fight though. Burns couldn't keep up with us usmans striking and wonderboys is levels beyond kamarus. Respect to the champ though. A true savage
@@christopherbiggerstaff1088 striking is definitely I think one of if not the best in the welterweight division, i would just like to see his defense on the ground against a dominant grappler like Burns. I wouldn't mind if he kept it standing though as a wonderboy fan lol.
What's up Wonderboy. Man me, my wife and my son really enjoy when you show your old fights and talk about them and whatnot,its alot of fun. We're all fight fans and your fans as well so its seriously a blast for us. Oh and we love your sound effects for the strikes bro. Lol its awesome.have a great day and God bless wonderboy
I really hope Wonderboy gets one more shot at the title. If Usman (or whoever holds it at the time) beats him then fair enough but I think his style is a problem for everyone and he looks fresher than ever and having a ball beating the living sh*te out of everybody. I would also love to see him in Karate Combat as I love what they are building there.
Love the wcl fights. Great to watch. Your strikes back then were great,but now they are lethal. One of my favorites is the right hand followed by high kick. They never see it coming till it’s lights out lol. Love what have accomplished bro.
Hey wonder boy I’m 13 and live South Carolina and want to be in the ufc just like you! I wanted to tell you that you are one of my biggest inspirations ever. I hope I can meet you someday. Or maybe get you in my corner someday.🙏🏼 can’t wait to see you back in the octagon.
Love the WCL fights. It was great sporting entertainment with no real stress of attachment to outcomes with the team format and short fights. The viewer gets to see so much sport and a vast array of athletes in one event. Love the tournament style.
Can you show us your kicking boxing shoes that you used back then? They look more "glove-like" (with padding) than boxing shoes. If it did have padding, how did that affect mobility?
Dude!!! I love this fight so much. It’s one of my favorite kickboxing matches to watch. You friggin’ smoked him with that switchie! I am always so surprised he stayed up, every time I see this.
I remember watching a few of those fights on tv. Yours was more exciting then the ones I remember watching! I remember a old ufc fighter being on the show. He was on the tuf season called “comeback “
You telegraphed that spinning hook kick that allowed you to sit on his head. I always appreciated these type of leagues. But you’re a UFC King now. You’re way above this in the manner of being a complete fighter.
this is a cool concept. I dont think ive seen another fighter rect to their own fight. I like the honest excitement when he tags the guy. Good stuff wonderboy!
Still it is hard to believe that someone with kind personality like yours could be such a badass killer in the fight. I hope that you will beat Gilbert Burns.
I had no idea you had a UA-cam show. Awesome, you have always been one of my favorite fighters. I respect the Karate style… I was a brown belt in Akeido, a highly criticized martial arts. But our top guy competed again Jean Claude Van Damme in a Colorado tournament.
@@destroyerofmorons I beg to disagree sir. The first fight was great and very competitive and they both have gotten a lot better. If you think in either direction there is going to be a blowout besides a lucky KO on either end I don’t think you know what you are talking about
@@destroyerofmorons Did you even watch the first fight? Yea Colby lost but he managed to hurt Usman while fighting with a broken jaw. I don’t get why people choose to be ignorant and act like that wasn’t a great fight.
Damn bro, you've borderline got the full on Vanilla Ice hair in this one. 😂 Love to watch you fight and the fact you're so freakin nice just makes it more fun to watch you knock guys out.
Don’t really have too much time to watch but subscribing just cuz you are the man as a human! Keep killing it brotha!!! Totally a nasty Blanka stance too hahaha what an mma diamond in the rough U were here, that post on the head re positioning him was durrrrty.
Is it me, or could Wonderboy be a commentator on Karate Combat once he retires? He just seems so knowledgeable and insightful yet fun and outgoing. Easily one of my favorite fighters in MMA. Awesome video btw, NMF 👌😁
Congrats on the fast youtube growth Stephen and Sweet T! Since last june you have grown from 190k to 343k as of writing this! And all well deserved. I suppose you ought to fight Mayweather soon at this rate ;)
I would love being instructed by you Stephen! You are the coolest fighter I have ever seen, not cocky but down to earth and DAMN good! All the best from Norway!
Blanca stance lol I also noticed he hops like sagat at times!! You look like a real life ken masters my dude !! Good luck I’ll be betting on ya against burns!!!!
I forgot that Wonderboy was in WCL too. I used to watch their old vids on YT bcus of Raymond Daniels. That whole format is so cool. Later on I found out it was started by Chuck Norris, then it all made more sense lol.
Stephen, the only thing on my mind as you started the commentary was that vanilla ice song, ice ice baby to go, to go 🤣🤣. Seriously though kid, you have some mad skills at controlling the distance in fights which is why you still have that pretty boy face after all those ufc fights, respect.
Hey Wonderboy, just stumbled on to your channel and had to give you an instant subscribe. I’m a huge fan and I try (and mostly fail lol) to copy your fighting style because it soooo smooth and fluent. Hoping one day we could train together so I can pick your brain and learn from one of the best.
So satisfying shutting down the cocky guys. I remember beating two cocky guys from Bill Blanks team back in the mid 80s and my sensei Luc Maisonneuve had beaten Billy Blanks as well in the same tournament.
I came up in theater and have seen egos and attention hounds. The evolution of that ego usually is in an ugly direction. Stephen has a performers personality. Completely necessary to succeed on social media. As the exposure reveals his ego it seems he evolves towards humility and compassion. Sweet T and his Dad call him out on it. The love they have as they call him out speaks volumes for the finer aspects of his character. I've seen performers who never earned that love and only had ego. Afterwards I've seen a distinct difference. Too soon to tell but I have a good feeling. As always, I'm impressed.
Kool Story i remember watching this exact fight on Versus..And always remembered a tall white young dude tearin up these grown men in this team sport ... Then 10 years later i find out hes in the ufc And is named Wonderboy..Always been a fan brotha Keep doing you...
Wonderboy: "Oh my gosh, I look so young."
Also Wonderboy: *Looks exactly the same*
MY DAD SAID THE SAME THING LMAO
I was about to say Wonderboy hasn’t really aged in like a decade still looks the same, still the Nicest man I’d be afraid fight in a bar 😂
*100%*
was scrolling down just to write the same comment lol

You gave the poor man Bambi legs and THEN switch kicked him! BEAUTIFUL
Even the legs of The Man of Steel succumbed to the kicks of WB....says a LOT!
When WB says "Watch this, I remember this" it gets my attention right away lol.
that kick made my jaw hit the keyboard. there was some fire on that one!
How come you don't have a tick?
BAMBI LEGS?!?!!! YESSSSSS🤩🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘
The bowl is pretty cool and I love how fast paced these matches are!!!
Karate kombat uses the same bowl. Bas Rutten is on commentary
Shamrock just started a new combat fighting league that uses the bowl. Valor Bare Knuckle
@@bsilva3879 Karate Combat bowl is bigger it seems.
I remember reading about the bowl when Norris started the league. They did it so you can tell when you're at the edge...they didn't want a cage to get in the way of people's view. You'd also lose points if you were in the red I believe
I think wonder boy said he tore a ligament in his knee because of the bowl
I would have never loved karate if I hadn't seen this guy's style
Not he’s style !!!,it’s called sport karate was using it in the 70s,just raymond Daniels,michael page,and wonderboy are more athletic and flashy,even kids fight like it,
True, I was talk’n mad shit about karate before I saw wonderboy
@@jamesmiles1328yeah the basics are similar from a fighter to another
But the style 🤨 I don't think so
@@jamesmiles1328if anyone did not told me that he's using karate in mma, I wouldn't know

You gotta have that mentality tho
Well you obviously have to back off or defend. Doesn't mean you should get psyched out
Deeply satisfying!!! Cant wait for you to put on a show against that beast of a man Burns! Stay safe during training WB!
Being on that red line gave you the high ground like Obi-Wan
Bars
Switch kick was crazy but I show up for the intro that makes my day every time ✌️ 😊
Whats' up everybody 😎🎶🎤🎵
@@Sebastian_ignasi0 everyyyyybodyy
I like the song at the end
If ever there's a man to be humbled by its Wonderboy
In two ways right? ;)

"I'll first use my hands and follow with my kicks" - Baby Wonderboy
We expect the same next month Mr Wonderboy 😎
Can't wait for the fight against burns, i like the matchup
Same! I feel like it'll be another clinic like the Luque fight though. Burns couldn't keep up with us usmans striking and wonderboys is levels beyond kamarus. Respect to the champ though. A true savage
@@christopherbiggerstaff1088 I kind of want to see some of Wonderboys grappling in the fight if it he gets taken down.
@@mpmcarthur1371 same but I just dont know for sure if his jiu jitsu holds up to Burns. But his striking is honestly superior to most in the division.
@@christopherbiggerstaff1088 striking is definitely I think one of if not the best in the welterweight division, i would just like to see his defense on the ground against a dominant grappler like Burns. I wouldn't mind if he kept it standing though as a wonderboy fan lol.
You look like a side character from the 90's in Starship Troopers
Do you want to see more?
100%, but unfortunately he got snapped in half and tossed to the side.
@@MAN_FROM_BEYOND Those bug has no chance against side kicks.
Wonderboy is the most liked and nicest guy in his gym until it’s time to practise kicks. That switch kick tho Jesus
The switch kick sends you to Jesus
You’d be like let me patch this sweet looking guy up I’ll go easy on him and then he’d light you up

Loving these old fights man, quality .
Wonder boy
“I look so young” but looks the same 🤣
And fights the same
🤣🤣🤣🤣
When he started making the sound effects of the punches and kicks connecting lol 😆
Bro I didn't know you fought Riff Raff in the second fight🔥😂
I was really hoping somebody commented that :)
RRR... Roided Riff Raff
@@trinidaddy 💯😁
I love when cockey gets humbled by the naturally HUMBLE.
I love how WB says “look I’m so young” and he looks maybe three years older plus a tan😂
This wonderboy guy seems very talented. I think he is going to get a contract with the UFC one day
I love how Stephen is so wholesome despite being of of the baddest dudes on earth.
I really hope Wonderboy gets one more shot at the title. If Usman (or whoever holds it at the time) beats him then fair enough but I think his style is a problem for everyone and he looks fresher than ever and having a ball beating the living sh*te out of everybody.

Love you wonderboy these vids have been great. Hope ur next fight goes well
its wonderful how he can recall and in someways relive his emotions and thoughts from so many years ago
Love the wcl fights. Great to watch. Your strikes back then were great,but now they are lethal. One of my favorites is the right hand followed by high kick. They never see it coming till it’s lights out lol. Love what have accomplished bro.
When the lights are out, they'd still not see it coming 😉
Me at 13: Jaiden Smith is karate kid
Me at 25: Wonderboy is karate kid
Not Ralph Macchio?
@@jkhpbrn That would be what my dad says. I'm just a youngin
@@Sozment09 that's no excuse, I'm 25 too 🤷🏼♀️
Rumour has it, he is still complaining about the stoppage.
You don't say! 🤣🤣🤣
And he probably is, imagine this dude sitting on a couch watching ufc and saying it could be me but that damn early stoppage :D
Legend has it, Dude is still shimming, telling everyone “I whooped that boy” but can’t find the video tape.
He probably tells his friends he fought wonder boy but no one believes him 😂
I love WB's cheap Kung-fu movie sound effects in the background LMAO. Can't wait for July bro. Side kick FTW!!!
Interviewing your own opponent just before the fight actually sounds very funny to my ears 😀
reporter" so how do you think that went wonderboy?
wonderboy: i punched him then i kicked him.
*slow clap*
LOL had to rewatch the switch kick 5:43 a few times..... ouch!😂
Hey wonder boy I’m 13 and live South Carolina and want to be in the ufc just like you! I wanted to tell you that you are one of my biggest inspirations ever. I hope I can meet you someday. Or maybe get you in my corner someday.🙏🏼 can’t wait to see you back in the octagon.
Keep going lil bud! But please don't push yourself too much, the fight game is really rough, and you should know when exactly to stop.
Good luck bro!

8:22 Referee Cecil Poeples almost walking into a strike 😂
The speed of that switch kick is amazing. Knowing when to use it is another thing!
Thanks for sharing.
It’s funny he says he was terrible with interviews, but it’s literally no different than his more recent interviews! Lmao
lmfao
Can you show us your kicking boxing shoes that you used back then? They look more "glove-like" (with padding) than boxing shoes. If it did have padding, how did that affect mobility?
"Looks like a young guy in his 20's"
*sees footage that looks like it was made in the 90's*
*surprised*
Dude!!! I love this fight so much. It’s one of my favorite kickboxing matches to watch. You friggin’ smoked him with that switchie! I am always so surprised he stayed up, every time I see this.
Joker. That’s who I meant.
Wonderboy looks like he's never taken a punch in his life. Compared to wrestlers, it's crazy to see someone with normal ears
Cauliflower is mostly genetic.
I remember watching a few of those fights on tv. Yours was more exciting then the ones I remember watching! I remember a old ufc fighter being on the show. He was on the tuf season called “comeback “
Love it! Do a Technique Tuesday about your style compared to Raymond Daniels' and Michael "Venom" Page's!
You telegraphed that spinning hook kick that allowed you to sit on his head. I always appreciated these type of leagues. But you’re a UFC King now. You’re way above this in the manner of being a complete fighter.
you should've gone to the other dudes locker room and interviewed him after the fight. anyways good luck with your fight vs burns!
this is a cool concept. I dont think ive seen another fighter rect to their own fight. I like the honest excitement when he tags the guy. Good stuff wonderboy!
Hey wb, will you ever react to any of your ufc fights? Would like to see you breakdown the masvidal fight
I love the body kicks right behind the straights
Cast him as Johnny Cage. 1% royalties.
That would be perfect! They have the same charisma
Glad I've found your UA-cam! One of the most humble, entertaining fighters to do it.. massive respect 💪
Still it is hard to believe that someone with kind personality like yours could be such a badass killer in the fight. I hope that you will beat Gilbert Burns.
Dude made himself look like a fool! Stumbling around getting whooped and acting cocky 😂😂💪
A humble pie slice by Wonderboy's diner.
Bro, you're a legend! Love watching your stuff and seeing your work ethic show up in the ring every time. Best of everything to you, brother!
I’m a 30 year old man and I wish you were my dad lol god I love this man!
calm down
Hoping 4 you to beat burns. Keep training hard and putting in hard work. Hope for you to do your best.
He was like oh lord😂😂😂😂😂pure gold
gotta love Cecil Peoples's little leg lift when he starts a fight
I just scrolled down to see if anyone commented on that ridiculous pose.
Love these reviews . These older fights are a fun blast from the past!
It's incredible how 3 minutes can simultaneously feel like 1 second and 3 hours depending on how you experience it.
I had no idea you had a UA-cam show. Awesome, you have always been one of my favorite fighters. I respect the Karate style… I was a brown belt in Akeido, a highly criticized martial arts. But our top guy competed again Jean Claude Van Damme in a Colorado tournament.
"I was always trying to finish guys... with head kicks"
6:42 I heard you hesitate for a second to finish that sentence 😉😂
I would rather have wb fight usman than Colby, wb would straight eat up Covington any day of the week
I love wonderboy he's one of my favorite fighters but colby would eat him alive then knockout snoozeman immediately after
@@jakesolberg7793 The fact that you think Colby can even come CLOSE to beating Usman, much less KNOCKING HIM OUT shows how little you know

You seriously have one of the best youtube channels in mma. Much love wonderboy.
I can’t wait to see what you’re bringing to the Burns fight! Keep up the hard work!
It’s always cool to see a man who can beat almost every man on the planet be so humble and generally a good man. This is strength… honor.
Cool stuff. 2nd dude was a beast. Keep them coming man
This is a cool guy. He's very respectful. Later, He can become a great UA-cam personality

Seriously though kid, you have some mad skills at controlling the distance in fights which is why you still have that pretty boy face after all those ufc fights, respect.
Hey Wonderboy, just stumbled on to your channel and had to give you an instant subscribe. I’m a huge fan and I try (and mostly fail lol) to copy your fighting style because it soooo smooth and fluent. Hoping one day we could train together so I can pick your brain and learn from one of the best.
