Stephen Wonderboy Thompson - How To: Striking Combo W/ Angle Change
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- In this weeks episode I add on to the shuffle jab to create a quality striking combo that I used in my fight vs Jorge Masvidal. By adding a cross, another shuffle, and another cross, this combo has become deceptive to the competition. With the added angle change this combo also adds an evasive element as well. I hope you enjoy this weeks break down! Thanks for watching!

This is crazy seeing Wonderboy doing UA-cam , I love these videos
Amazing isn't it. Problem is though, I wanna see him win but he's giving away all his moves 😂
@@chris-Ribble-Roots It's not as simple as that. It's about mind games, experiance, setting it up in a real fight, having the right body type... Most fighters won't come even close. I'm sure he ain't tealling all of it. Anyway he's close to retirement so it doesn't matter
@@fadingsolitude1327 Haha, yeah man, I'm only messing.
He loves to teach
I remember when you used this technique to knock down Jorge Masvidal.
I think that was just a jab to a angle change cross but very Similar.
@@paragon1782 Yeah, it was a striking combo w/ angle change, just not the exact combo in this video. Still has same principles though.
@@paragon1782 That jab was almost like just a faint to get him blinking and hit him with the angle changed cross, he schooled Jorge so hard that fight, I loved it.
@@ilopgaara same. The D side kick that dropped him was amazing as well. One of my top 5 favorite fighters
Sozin Repulsive don’t wanna sound like that guy but I also thought he was schooling pettis before pettis landed that amazing Superman
Lebron James: TACOOO TUESDAYYYYY
WONDERBOY: TECHNIQUEEE TUESDAYYYYYYYYY
Wonderboy probably has a taco on tuesday too
Khabib: TIRAMISU TUESDAYYYY
he just ruined his brand by associating with lecringe
I laughed so loud hahaha
Why not both? 🎵🎊🎉🥳
I've only seen you do this full speed in fights. Your technique Tuesday's are great man!
It's actually impossible to hate this guy. What a class act. You're great Wonderboy
I couldn’t agree more, the dude is a great representative for the ufc and all of martial arts
thank you my friend!!! I appreciate all of y'all!!
If you laugh you sub! LOL
maybe thats why he is called wonderboy
Single greatest role model.
i love that your tecnics are still full of karate logics. You are both mma and a karate inspiration for me, thanks Wonderboy!!
closinginonclosure shoulda had a comma between federal offense and smartass
closinginonclosure I hate that people give you attention. I’m no better than they are though.
Imagine having the confidence to teach your opponents striking. Ben Askren’s probably your 100th subscriber.
You can feel the karate background in his style literally.
Was cool to meet you in Canada at Boston Pizza last weekend man! Thanks for the tips on the question mark kick!
Ohhh man whats up?!?! Great meeting you too my friend!!
Stephen Wonderboy Thompson haha thanks man! I’ve been stretching beforehand now and the flexibility has improved a ton
Stephen can you do a good video on nutrition? What one should eat to stay fit,gain muscle , lose excess fat ?...It will be really helpful coming from a UFC fighter. Thank You!
Keep up the great work!
Why do you guys make requests like there aren't other channels? We're here for masvidal arts.
@@1x1HealthyEnergybyAndrew masvidal arts? You fanboys are getting out of hand.
Theres literally thousands great videos out there where you find this topic
@@reachboy1 But still it would be good to hear from a lifelong fighter who has been in shape for so many years. Who knows what gems he might drop
@I know I’m gay when I say this but but....it didnt happen that way ben got slept thats why mma is a great sport cause of the unpredictability
You lifted that right leg off the ground when you knocked out Robert Whittaker.. 🤗
Mistakes happen in MMA, it’s just ideal to keep it planted
5:16 Wonderboy "you hit him on the ear it makes him wobbly I've been hit there it doesn't feel good"
Darren Till: *laughs*
I was working the Trifecta Strike Challenge at IFW before UFC 239. Your brother, Evan, and I talked for about 30 minutes. Then you walked up to participate and walked up to me, shook my hand, and introduced yourself to me before I could even get a word out. One of my favorite moments ever, and definitely my favorite fighters now!!!!!!!! #Wonderboy
Greetings from 🇧🇷 my brother.
You're humble and also a great fighter.
Really hope to see u soon kicking ass again.
I’m so glad technique Tuesday is every week now I love it
Got my very first MMA fight in September. You're videos are very helpful and love your fighting style! Implementing as much as I can into my training. Thank you for the videos!
Best of luck, Bro.
Did you win?
lets go stephen i really like your videos and i really love your style a lot of love from cyprus
Back foot isn't planted on the 2nd cross. Not even once. But, I'm not a fighter and I like Thompson. Wish he could have taken Woodlys belt.
Loving this channel. So informative. I really appreciate having breakdowns like this from such a trusted source- looking forward to drilling this and also to more videos - keep it up Wonderboy!
Wonderboy is very technical fighter. Can you show , how you throw cross with step forward. Very cool technique from Karate.
Pettis got a fluke, wonderboy should be a champ
Damn best place to learn these from legit mma fighter..wonderboy is great🤘🤘🤘
I think hes realised that he wont be getting a title shot for a long and he just recently got kod by pettis, his career is going down hill and his career could come to a end soon from another loss, hopefully not but this youtube stuff he is doing is obviously a smart business back up plan. Good on him
What a fantastic combo. If you can land this on people who fight for a living, then practising the crap out of it will make it incredible for a quick street fight stun to get away. Just beautiful!
I laughed about the floating foot lol. I used to be notorious for that. I can remember my instructor would yell get that foot down. Too funny. I love the videos sir, keep em coming! Can you do a video of your takedown defense from a strikers perspective? 👍🏿
it's like if neil patrick harris was huoarang from tekken
Stephen is the best man ❤️❤️.. Explaining every bit of his techniques..👊🖤..#WonderboyMMA❤️
Idgaf about any of this but I subscribe and like anyway because I love wonderboy.
What is wrong with you? Why you dont care about the techniques?
TotalX48 cause he probably doesn’t train
this guy is such an amicable fellow....i think he will be one of the fighters that leaves a real legacy beyond his own and have very successful students
Your technique is correct. But, it will only work if you throw your jab before your foot lands. And, the third punch has to coincide with your sidestep also landing before the foot sets down. Even better if you follow with your left lunge punch or side attack punch instead. 1,2,3 with no gaps in timing. No time to rechamber before punching.
Significantly ! 👍
I'm glad my point Karate background makes it easier for me to get used to this combo. By the way, love your vid.
WONDERBOYYYY love the consistency with the uploads! Thank you for taking time out of your schedule to film and upload this! Keep up the great work CHAMP! 🥋🔥🙏🏽
I'm in love with this guy 😊. And hey Wonderboy,you're my dad's favourite fighter 🤗
Oh wow.. now we doing angle changes! So cool!!
Great instruction. I like to leave the jab hanging in their face or pressing their glove in their face (right handed stance) as I do my step off, not only as a range finder but to help mask the movement.
One of the best Welterweights in the UFC. Good job bro.
Wonderboy can you please explain how to do spinning back kick.
Stephen Thompson the Striking Goat of MMA
Colby The King of Brazil Covington Anderson Silva
Wonderboy, Conor (as much as people hate him when it comes to striking few can compete with him), and Anderson Silva are all tied in my book. The gold standards of MMA striking
Ku Ku Klock For me Silva will always be number 1 the things he did in his prime were ridiculous dodged punches like he was in the matrix and made it look easy. I’ll agree Conor is a great striker but his style is limited so that when facing sloppy brawlers like Alvarez he looks on another level but when facing someone that can take a punch to give one back like Diaz he doesn’t look nearly as good. Wonderboy is a great striker all round but he hasn’t been able to finish many top guys if any at all.
@@reservoirfrogs2177 Silvas level of competition was very very very low during his prime. Which is why he looked so good. He used to be my favorite fighter before I actually understood boxing. Conor wonderboy isreal and Holloway are all much much more skilled.
@@CobraShadowz silvas opponents were shit. Conors wins over Mendes aldo and Alvarez are all more impressive than any of silvas wins except that diaz fight where he was roiding and barely won.
Add highlights from your fight into your videos when showing technique, would be cooler :-)
My girl hates that I have a man crush on Wonderboy.
Sensei , it would be much better if you show the exact thing you did in your fight just after explaining the technique.
Please keep adding on to these basic techniques every week. This is perfect. Subscribed.
Steven.....if I'm not training BJJ or mauy thai.......I don't know what to do with myself......the discipline I get from marshal arts I can't get anywhere else....prince of saiyans......out 😎
nice video
good✨
ahahahhha... he got my like since the 5th second... so humble man...
Grandee Wonderboyyy... terrible seco el shushetumareeeee... ajkajkajk
Greetings from Chile... sapo qliaooo ajkajajja
Dang i love your vids
Saludos desde Perú, Sudamérica; Wonderboy. Me encantan tus videos.
ワンダーボーイに教えて貰えるなんて最高だよ！！
早く復帰して、その素晴らしい技術達を披露して見せてください。応援してます。
I love his enthusiasm he brings such a wholesome attitude to martial arts and that’s why he’s my favorite martial artist watching his sick fights and finishes are just extra lmao
The Role Model! Thank you Wonderboy!Greetings from Lithuania!😎🥊👌
Wonder boy video right after an ESPN video posted with wonder boy. Lol like the same minute.
Wow!
Thank you always for making funny technique video.
I anticipate another funny video on next week wonderboy !!!
Great video!!!
Congratulacion Steven!!
Thanks!!!
Oss
Excellent lesson!
Yesss!! More technique Tuesdays!!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us, you've already made insane contributions to the world of mma and karate - and your UA-cam channel is another significant contribution to the betterment of martial arts. Love the idea of future videos about combinations working off a shuffle jab set up, or perhaps a video about side kicks. Keep up the stellar content Wonderboy!
*Oss!!*
Love the channel. All the best to you, Stephen! Greetings from Bucharest, Romania!
I love this guy. Congrats from Brazil, Stephen
Please don’t smack me in the face I have trouble paying attention 😅😅
Such a pleasent guy..
And man - you won Till AND Pettis..
Everybody can get caught - you owned him/both of them
Such a great technique, got something to practice this Thursday for sparing. After I drill it to death.
Damn, I just watched your top 5 knockouts vid and you did this exact combo. Imagine that, it works??!! Just found your channel, glad I did! 👊🙏🙏
Love the technic just sucks Thompson never makes it a point to keep your hands up, we're all not master strikers with impeccable range.
Wonderboy is the badmfucer! No supermanpunches will ever change that!
Fans from Russia hope to see you in the Octagon soon! Good luck with the channel man!
Waiting for you to show your movement, alllll the way from Ireland, Cheer's Stephen "WONDERBOY" Thompson, my son n I watch foot movement of every fight , I already have judo, novice, but comes in handy !!! Especially against a 4 year all Ireland champion boxer, but I know how to beat him , but would never tell anyone...recovering from a fire, lost everything, only back to a weight I can now put on weight while working on stamina to...anyway my son thinks , like me , you are the best mover in the game. ..I used to block top half so he'd focus on footwork, thank's Stephen.🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Very humble , and true martial artist even tho I’m just a boxer I’ll support you wonderboy awesome guy you have some crazy kicks !! Blessings brotha ! ☺️greetings from 🇲🇽
Appreciate the technique breakdowns. Would be awesome if you demonstrated a lead side kick!
Hi wonderboy,can you make a video about your strength training? Thank for the helpful videos btw
Your channel inspired me to start working out again. I bought myself a punching bag. Every other day I'm doing 5 3 min rounds and After that I'm just doing perfect strike practice, heavy punching and 30 by 30.
Good luck in your next fight!!
Wonderboy actually uses this in fights haha his giving away his techniques to opponents, by purpose so he can hit them with something new in his next fight. Stay tuned 🙌🏽😨🤔👊🏽200 iQ trap
"Front hand is a jab"....the kind of small details that makes even new guys understand concepts
It would be amazing if you made a video showing us the best way to maintain our breathing when throwing kicks an punches....also. Head Movment
When he fought woodley i was really disappointed he didnt win that gold. This guy deserves to win UFC welterweight championship
Tried this 3 piece combo on my baby sister. MAN, was she ever surprised. Good technique
Because my fighting style has always placed a heavy emphasis on maintaining superior power and reach, I exclusively fight children.
Stephen Wonderboy Thompson is an awesome person, athlete, martial artist, and fighter. And even when he gets robbed of a fight, for example: Darren Till, he still has a good attitude. The most memorable fight that I enjoyed watching was his fight against Jake Ellenberger who dismissed karate as useless. Or when he dismantled Johnny Hendricks and a dangerous Jorge Masvidal.
If anyone wants to be a good martial artists, I recommend the yoel romero stretching routine, which boosts longevity, and majority fruit diet; and sandbag/dufflebag training, which replicates manual labor strength, like ngannou has.
Loving these!
Love these videos. Please upload more frequently. I think all the fans here will appreciate it too. Much love.
I love that Wonderboy always wants to get from point B to point A. All these years I've been trying to do it the other way around ;P Joking aside, awesome videos, man. Much respect!
I think you hit Tony way to hard, almost called 911 and reported a homicide. Thank you for the instructional, your videos are great.
@3:23 Ohhh shxt that's what Im doing. Dragging my rear leg too much and too close to my lead. I knew something always felt funny lol Thx man
I really like how he makes lessons fun. Where I train its all serious and gruelling and I'm the only one cracking inappropriate jokes and getting soft chuckles here and there but NO ONE would joke back. The only reason I haven't stopped is because of amzing content creators like'im reminds me of the fun part of martial arts.
Stephen, you have the best tutorials on the y-tube bar none. Very good stuff kid! Please keep them coming!
This is amazing!!!!!! If he makes a whole striking gameplan hes gonna blow up
I love this channel. I love seeing your sibling training with you as well, fuckin awesome brooo! I'm rooting for you in your next fight my guy👊
0:25 "I'll smack you in the face"
even though wonderboy is the nicest guy in the ufc, that's still a little intimidating
He definitely has the wider stance of any MMA fighter. Lyoto Machida style looks similar
It's the karate background
Wonderboy I am still wondering what is your power hand? Right or left? I can't tell since you switching stance a lot
That lead foot pointing to the right, that seems real bad for eating leg kicks, and hard on the knee. Is this how it's done in karate?
I'm not knocking Wonderboy, dude obviously know his shit, I'm just curious.
Counter left hook and wonder boy is catching 😴 zzzzz
You used this technique to KO Whittaker, amazing video
Wonderboy is a top tier athlete AND human being! Love the channel!
One of my favorite fighters. Subscribed.
I’m in Africa Ghana no boxing gym or mma gym I learn these things, thank you 🙏🏻
I have a question for @wonderboy do you do weighted lunges for explosiveness to make those quick angle changes or is there a better exercise for that?
In the future, could you imagine gsp and wonderboy being your coaches ?
Stephen, thank you so much for making this videos!!!
Stephen, you are morphing into your old man. And thats not necessarily a bad thing. Your pops looks cool.
This is the best channel I’ve ever subscribed to. It’s nice to see straight up karate done in an effective way. This is it! 😎
