A stoppage win should see Stephen chase an alluding title. |
Dan Miragliotta was handed this assignment with Thompson entering the exchanges with that traditional Karate stance, while Masvidal looked quite light on his front leg early on. two quick front leg side kicks landed flush to the body for 'Wonderboy', as Jorge looked to maintain octagon control and utilise his superior boxing. A sharp right hand found it's target so quickly for Thompson, dazing Masvidal for a moment. First round definitely goes to 'Wonderboy'.
The second of three possible rounds began with a half single leg shoot from Jorge, who from the fence began to unload strikes, as Thompson circled away. Big knockdown from Stephen Thompson, creating a clever angle to sweep a right hand onto the chin of Masvidal, with the Miami native recovering well. Crisp hook from Jorge smashed clean, with Thompson remaining on his feet notably.
Important third and final round for Masvidal. Both men trading leather heading toward the closing stages of this round, Not an instant classic but nevertheless Thompson picks up an important career victory.
