News Stephen Thompson vs. Vicente Luque Official For UFC 244

[Sijara Romero]

Wonderboy has this, his chin hasn't cracked and he severely fucked up on his fight vs Pettis if you watch carefully.

Wonderboy by 3rd KO or 30-27 decision.

WAR WB

 

[Dulfus]

I love this matchup! Two contrasting striking styles. Pretty tough to call a winner.

I feel like Wonderboy's gonna be stuck with a gatekeeper role now, regardless of outcome, so Luque's got a lot more to gain here.

 

[Shadey1]

I think wonder boy picks luque apart in this.

 

[TITS]

This will be a cure for insomnia regardless of who wins.

 

[Poids Moyen]

Lol they're pretty much making Thompson the new gate keeper at WW. They threw him to Till when he was barely top 10, then Pettis when he moved up from LW, and now Luque who is ranked 14

That's what happens when you get two title shots in a row.
He won the first one btw.

 

[Pakman]

Going with Luque by finish.

I've been on the bandwagon for far too long to get off now.

BUT, Wonderboy is a tough fight for any striker.

??? Luque has been in nothing but exciting fights for like the last 3 years

 

[Pakman]

Different style matchup, Luque is a smart pressure fighter that won't give Wonderboy any space. Perry is great in the pocket and has a better chin than Thompson with far more power in his hands.

And btw it's *brakes

Ehh Wonderboy has way better timing/distance control n footwork than PMP. Think you're really discrediting Wonderboy here and I say this as a big Luque fan (can check my post history I've been hyping him up for a good 18 months at least)

 

[fortheo]

Wtf is Ponzi up to though?

 

[hickoryflat]

Luque has nothing to gain by fighting a down and etc....And he has much to lose....But he's not crying about his worth and will show up and show out....Hespect...

[Bubblun]

This is one hell of a fight.

 

[The_Renaissance]

UD for 'almost pushing 40' veteran who knocks back an interesting younger prospect and as a result, ends up headlining UFN card in a 'title eliminator' situation somehow.

Fights like this is how the title picture stagnates. Same old faces floating around. Wonderboy is a much better striker than Luque and won't be worried about a takedown, if Luque wins I'd be surprised.

 

[ThoseAreMyShoes]

As long as WB fights cautiously he'll win this at a canter.

I think most ranked fighters are ducking Wonderboy.

 

[Shadey1]

LMAO

What's so funny?

I only picked that as this fight just reminds me a bit of Thompson vs masvidal.

 

[HoFF]

Hell of a fight

 

[Nobru]

Lots of emotional predictions means its a good fight. It is, indeed.
