Yup, that’s always been Wonderboy’s issue but he is so good the he can get away with it against 99% of fighters.

I don’t think he hangs em up, it’s only a 2nd KO loss in 20+ years of competing. But getting knocked out at 41 years old is not a good thing. 32 year old Thompson wouldn’t have lost to Buckley. I hope he’s okay, I’m gutted for him, that was hard to watch from one of my favorites.

Stephen just said prior to this KO loss he “sees no end in sight” at this juncture in his career.

Well now he suffered a tough loss, something he’s not used to…let us see now.

Pretty much. One shot with Buckley charging in and dropped Wonderboy entirely.

The initial punch didn’t put him out but hurt him bad and he was on all fours… the follow up shot appeared to put him out, as his head dropped a little. Thankfully his arms were blocking the view so I didn’t have to see him out.

WTF. He looked as good as usual. He almost head kick KOed Buckley a few times. Buckley basically landed one big shot… but it’s the one that mattered. But it doesn’t make Wonderboy washed up!

On UFC Unfiltered last week he said he will keep fighting until his body can’t do it anymore, becaus he loves training and fighting. He looked good in there. We’ll see what he says after this

The ability to take a punch really starts to fade as you get older. Hard to tell with this one since Buckley was winging bombs. He might have knocked anybody out with that punch.

But it’s hard to see wonderboy continue at 41 as somebody who relies on speed and reflexes. He didn’t look bad though.

Dang…

Thanks for this.

I’m watching MonsterVision with Joe Bob Briggs.

Tobe Hoopers THE FUNHOUSE! it’s October ninja!

That’s the thing about Buckley… what he lacks in skill he makes up for with power and pure doggedness

He caught him.

Didn’t see it and landed flush from a heavy hitter = doesn’t matter who you are you are hurt.

Wonderboy has definitely slowed down, you can tell. But if his skills were 10/10 before, they are about 7 or 8/10 now. He’s still really fast and has great reflexes, although he has slowed down a little. He hasn’t had a steep drop off like most fighters.
