Holland & Wonderboy's Takedown Deal
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 ноя 2023
- Kevin Holland and Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson are two of the more dynamic strikers in the UFC. But after losing recent bouts against grappling heavy fighters a main event between the two excited both Welterweights. Holland and Wonderboy both joked about not wrestling each other in the lead up towards their fight. But rarely do fans see fighters actually go through with promises about fighting with a particular style. For the most part both fighters ignored takedowns. That is until Holland injured his hand and was forced to attempt wrestling in order to give himself a chance to win. Ultimately, Thompson would win by TKO after the fourth round due to Holland's injury. #kevinholland #stephenthompson #shorts #ufc

Kevin going back on his no-wrestling pact to survive actually got me scared for him a little.
He broke his hand what do expect him to do...🤷🤷 just keep damaging it
@stacymoore4785 *Yes.* Because the fact that he made that pact in the first place proves how stupid he is, so why would you expect him to do something even remotely smart afterwards?
@@shacourbrissett9625 I know, right... what an asshole, agreeing to have a more entertaining fight. 🙄😒
Stupid....really ?? Nah dude is a sportsman. Now a coward wouldn't have done that at !! And he could have won period if he wasn't looking at it as fun. He spared wonderboy and paid the price. It happens. Yet wonder boy knows exactly what im talking about
@@stacymoore4785yeah, they were talking during the fight so he should have said "we need to change the rules" vs just springing a technique you said was off limits before. It's like boxing with your friends as a kid and saying no headshots and then they decide they want to punch you in the face
That fight was sick af. Hyped to watch wonderboy on the 16th
Shavkat gon smack him
Bro this fight card is gonna be awesome
Dana is really feeding our boy to an undefeated fighter 😢 His mom was right, over the years he's come to love money more than anything else
Even the fighters. He's the modern age Don King in his prime
@@SebQuevedoDont sleep on Wonderboy.
Shavkat is still a fairly new prospect, and Wonderboy has the experience.
People said the same shit with his fight with Kevin.
Saying he's too old and Kevin was going to hurt him.
Wonderboy will put up a fight.
@@cosmicbilly i just think that the grappling edge shavkat has is too far superior. Striking wise there are holes. But it doesn’t change anything imo. Shavkat either by Sub or GnP
I respect holland a lot that was every fans dream that night and they both delivered
Casuals dream *

@@MrNinja543oh sorry we forgot some of you guys like to watch crotch sniffing for 25minutes
Great fight ..none of that lying on each other crap
@@MrNinja543 germ
Wonderboy is an undefeated kickboxer and not using wrestling against him is like fighting the GOAT
Darren Till beat him at his game
@@Ism0Lait3lawho’s Darren till?
@@Ism0Lait3lahe only won because the fight was in Liverpool 🤣
@@Ism0Lait3labro got robbed
Karate
Wonderboy got Kevin acting on pure instinct at the end 😂
I’m pretty sure a teenaged boy could put your silly self into survival mode. Shut up 😂. 🤡
His hand was broken
Lol he got owned by WB@@SolusFather
I could never get tired of watching Wonderboy kicks. Beautiful
Too bad shavkath won't play into Stephens game of staying on the feet. He's not as stupid as kevin
@@mrshabwe’ll see
@@mrshab it's not about being stupid. People have always game planned to take Wonderboy down. And how many of them do it and succeed? if it was so easy to do then he wouldn't even be in the top 10 they'd dog walk him on the ground. But "some how" we are here in 2023 thinking its just that easy. Come on man. Stephen doesn't even have to spar anymore cause that Karate flow doesn't go away! So it is safe to assume a lot of his time is training things he's not one of the best in the world in.
@@skyguy1313 nope. Kevin openly said it before their fight that he won't grapple with Stephen and they both happily agreed. I'm not talking about any other fight so don't need the lecture. Check the facts before you respond 👍
@@zaivinski we did see indeed. Easy money 🤣
That fight was sick, it was like a classic pride fight. Infinitely rewatchable.
Facts
This was my favorite UFC fight of all time. Two class acts trading shots purely on their own terms. It was sick.
let me guess you started watching ufc during 2020 😂
@@danawhite1808Who cares when he started watching it ? I bet you’re one of those “ I’ve been watching since 1993 so I can gatekeep and make fun of those who started watching later” 🤡
@@JayDon9876lmao the guy's name is Dana White, like wipe your mouth bruh
@JayDon9876 how tf was that insulting you my guy? I agreed with you wtf😂
@@danawhite1808 Around then. Probably 2018 or 2019. I've seen a lot of old and historical fights but seeing that fight live (on TV) was awesome. It was as honorable and light hearted as two guys trying to strike each other down into oblivion could be.
"I gotta do what I gotta do," Wonderboy is a favorite and you have to love HOLLAND too!
Letting each other get up is straight up warrior shit. I love it 👊
remember the mark hunt and ray sefo no guard trading rights and smiling, then kissed lol.
one of the great moments in mma.
Max Holloway has a few stand and bang moments too!
@@unseenstalkr Disappointed, they didn't kiss properly. Fake!
“Ohhhh your a wrestler now” 😂😂😂
I think Kevin Holland lost zero clout from that loss. It was the fignt the fans wanted and the fans are the cash flow (except me bc who pays for ppv?😂)
You literally contradicted yourself and proved exactly why you *SHOULDN'T* listen to the fans, all in one sentence.
Why tf wouldn't you buy the ppv? You use whack streams?
@justicerobison3917 man no one wants to spend 100$ monthly for 4 hours of entertainment 🤷
@@justicerobison3917Torrents. Full HD, skip all the bs between fights. The events are in the middle of the night in my timezone anyway, we watch the day after.
Except his word is garbage that would be losing all clout
That is one of wonderboy’s most exciting fights!
Wonderboy on his own always fights excitingly it's just that some of his opponents take him down and make fights boring
I just wish the UFC would have given Wonderboy more strikers its sad that the welterweight division has sooo mans wrestlers/grapplers if Wonderboy was a 155er shit would be even more crazy
this the type of energy i love
I disagree
@@HockeyxLlama you literally can’t disagree with that. but what don’t u like?
I like monster energy too
@@keeperlikeaboss1034 I want to see who the best martial artists in the world are, and when he decides to not be competitive it takes that way. Who would win if he used Ju-Jitsu? You and I both don’t know. I think (and I’m not the only one ho thinks this) that he does this as a built in excuse. He won’t say that someone is better than him because he fought a certain way.
@@HockeyxLlama i mean they’re the ones doing it they can do what they want and i love when they have their own agreements. if you have any problem with it then cross them off the list of the best and don’t hate on me for enjoying the show
best fight in the last 5 years imo. both of these guys are absolute legends.
Great fight, wonder boy was almost out in round one, if holland wrestled I think he would’ve won, needs to take his career more seriously.
Same thing with Jack. He allowed Jack to get more hits in, but he could’ve took it, he’s the sharper striker. I don’t know why sometimes he’s sharp, hungry, and focused and sometimes he doesn’t care
I think hes scared to find out that he was never good enough to be champion material. So he instead chooses to self sabotage.
@@DeeboWRLDthat is a shame, he’s getting rich though. And he is talented so if he’s young he has a good chance in anything if he wants to
@@DeeboWRLDI think you called that well. If you can't be champ you can put out good shows and still get paid a lot and not get dropped. It's a job at the end of the day
@@kevinmalone584nah jack is just better
I was at this fight card in person. What a fight!
I just made a comment about how I wish I was there. You lucky sod.
I love that Holland can tell him that then wonderboy let him go. immediately trusting him. such a sick fight
W fight
I love how they even did a commercial beating each other up as friends
I would've loved to see Wonderboy vs. Machida back in the day at 185.
That's why he's the WONDERBOY
Having someone fight you as nice and well spoken as Wonderboy is kinda scary.. 😅😅😅
Holland reminds me of nick and Nate Diaz. And for the older folks here, Emanuel Augustus. Great skill. Great showmen. They may not win every fight, but they don’t duck nobody and they’re guaranteed to give u a great show. Winning is always the goal. But the sacrifices made by these people….its coo to see mf’s have fun wit it. Respect to both of these warriors 🫡
Fr Holland also has had 0 fucks energy love it😂 also stepping in on 1 day notice to fight Khamzat just Shows hes a G same as this fight
This fight was incredible and really boosted both guys. Nobody lost in the eyes of the people. Legends!
I've never seen two fighters that showed so much respect for each other!!! Super great fight!!!
That is the most respect and honesty ive ever seen from KH... your suppose to be kind of lying to yourself to stay unpredictable.. idk.. crazy group of men over the decades!
Truly a legendary fight between 2 legends. I loved watching it. All fans of MMA won that night.
These two combatants were a pleasure to watch in the ring...the display of respect throughout the whole match was a rare spectacle...damaging, dangerous, and crafty warriors enjoying the spotlight in this one...how often do fighters laugh and smile in the throws of combat sports...instant classic...was awesome...
These two put on one the best fights EVER!!!.. there two r both some of the best fighters.. I really appreciated there sportsmen's ship😚..that's how two fighters should be,....not trying to kill each other,...but just good competition
Facts
I like both of these dudes. How could you not?
Fr
Nothing better than a Wonderboy fight. Dude always brings it
love the respect between these two
one of my personal top 5 most entertaining fights , not just cus of the violence but the connection these 2 shared in that octagon was special
Wonderboy is one of my favorite fighter of all time he is kind and humble and he is still a force to be reckoned with
takes a intelligent fighter to know when hes lost and protects his longevity. you're fighting arguably the best karate master in the ufc and already at your limit of damage and stamina
Two titans battling ,wow ,much RESPECT
That was a fantastic fight! Hats off to both of them. They gave everyone their money's worth and more.
Much respect to Holland and Wonderboy
Kevin and Wonderboy seem like some of the coolest people to know.
One of the best fights . Do not sleep on Wonderboy .🏆
Such a great fight. Respect to both warriors.
Will always love Kevin win or lose. Dude really gave us some bangers during the apex era
One of the best match up in ufc history
Wonderboy is such a classy fighter, didn't know much about Holland before this, seems like a great dude too. Respect to both fighters.
Kevin Holland cool af aswell
This was a great fight for the fans been watching wonderboy since the beginning in our hometown all these years he still puts on a show
I love inside fighter talk like this, I wish it was done more!
You can go in there with any mindset you want. But as you actually fight it shows your true mindset which is amazing.
Wonderboy vs Shavkat is gonna be a BANGER🔥🔥🔥
That fight was literally breathtaking
They are both amazing fighters and good guys...much love
Wonderboy is underrated
Like hes elite!!
Such a cool exchange between contemporaries
Need more of these fights
Wonderboy such a good dude and sport. Wasn’t even upset he was shooting on em.
that agreement gave us all an absolute banger. thanks wonderboy and trailblazer !!
Stephen cracks me up. Love that guy.
Holland is crazy, mad lad respect.
That was Wonderboy's best fight
What an insanely awesome fight! Love, both are fighting styles, so together… It was pure magic
One of the most fun fights i ever watched! These two guys are great
Wonderboy is wildly underrated
Crazy fight from both. When I saw it live I thought holland was about to get him out of there in the beginning and for wonderboy to comeback in that fashion really was a spectacle.
He waited till it was his last hope, respect that Holland. World class men, kept there word, gangsta
possibly the most feel good fight i've ever seen, good vibes only
Their was so mich reapect in that fight!!! Love it.. we need this in everyone
This was the most entertaining uFC fight I'veever watched
I love both these guys.
He stayed in there with a broken hand , love kevin
I think both of their hands were broken
Great fight between two good competitors. They put on a nice Clinic
Wonder boy a great man and a great fighter
Love both these guys, and this fight was a banger
I really hope Holland will develop his game and be champion. The guy has that champions charisma
this was an entertaining fight. one of my favorites and ive been watching mma since it was on cable tv at 3am.
Wonderboy forever❤
Two of the coolest men that have ever lived 😂
One of the best I’ve seen what a battle!!!!
Wonderboy. Always respected him. The only fight ive seen use sidekicks. Everyone throwing round house and front kicks. Side kicks are always the best.
Both good dudes.
Antics are can be fun but mutual respect always gives the best fights
They had a whole podcast during this fight
Those two. One podcast would be a great laugh. A bit of bromance 😂
This fight was so damn good.
Shit bruh this is some pure violence…respect 🫵🏾
Kevin the realest in da game
wonderboy so fuckin gracious
People criticized Holland/called him dumb for not grappling with WB. But that's literally why the fight was one of the best of the year. I'm thankful they had that agreement lol
He went in with that r Kelly cut and got served 😂😅
Kevin: advanced clinch
Kevin holland is always one of my favorite ppv early main card guys. I’m always excited to see him. He’s let me down a few times, but he’s usually exciting. I wish he was a little more locked in and was ranked high in his class. But knowing ur gonna get an exciting fight as one of the fights u paid for is always nice
Standing to bang w arguably the best striker in the ufc is tuff asf🔥
Fights was so sick. Best fight of the card for me
That's why, as a fan it was one of the most entertaining fight I've seen. Its a spectator sport and nobody wants to watch two men hugging each other for fifteen minutes
"Thought you're not going to shoot."
Bro you are kicking my broken hand. Sorry guy, I need to be able to sign and cash this check when I'm done.😅
Holland really said watch who can grapple and submitted his last two
respect to holland for that
2 genuine, certified bad @$$es...got to respect 👊💯
Dana does pay good. Holland made 350,000 in one night. Wow
In one night, minus the months he spent in training camp just for that fight and almost his entire life to even get to that level. Compare that to other sports where they're getting multi million dollar contracts yearly and yeah its not that great, especially with the toll it takes on the body.
In 15 minutes.. dana overpays them
@@Thezamarywow. Still better wage then my parents make in 20 years. Stop complaining, the payment is big enough
@@phoneringphilip2342some fighters don’t even make over 10k for a fight
@@who7950bro don't want to hear that he just wants to rides Dana's nuts 😂
The one thing you can always say about a wonder boy fight is they are going to be entertaining
This was an amazing fight
