“That’s what I’m out there to prove to the fans and everybody around the world. There are levels to this,” Thompson told Damon Martin MMAWeekly ahead of his bout with Till at UFC Liverpool. “I’m going to go out there and I’m going to do work. You’re going to see the level of that No. 1 and No. 8. UFC’s giving him a chance so I know he’s going to be coming prepared. Anybody in the UFC has a chance to knock you out. So I’m not going to take this guy lightly.

“I’m going to prove to everybody this is why I’m No. 1 and there are levels to this game.”

“I know that pretty much everybody I face is going to wind up wanting to take me down eventually,” he said. “I know in some of Till’s earlier fights, he has tried to take people down. I know he prefers to stand up, which is something I want to do.

“He wants to prove he’s the better striker than me and that puts a smile on my face. I hope that’s his plan.”

Wonderboy is the best and most technical striker in mma history,beating another great striker like till would seal the deal
 
if someone tries to strike with him he is probably the better striker,
but if someone instead fights the mma game mixing in everything and pressures him with wild power, his effective striking isn't going to cut it.

i'm thinking something like the way cain walked down jds would completely shut down thompson
 
Vegas has this one at a dead pk'em ...interesting.

Ill be tuning in at noon on Sunday for that one.This is like a bad fight pass card (outside main)
 
Wonderboy is the better striker but Till will be too big and powerful for him imo. I dont see anyone at 170 beating Darren atm
 
Man I hope Till tenderizes WB's legs and body
 
Can’t wait. Awesome fight!

Till's #8 ranking is meaningless because he is undefeated. Everyone there has been ranked number one had to go up through the ranks. The ranking is pretty much meaningless if you've yet to be seriously challenged. If it means anything, it means he's an unknown quantity. However, we do know he's good enough to run over cowboy and make it look easy. He could be the best fighter in MMA history but they're simply not enough data at this point to show it on paper

This is a hard fight to pick. Wonderboy is a technical expert but Till is fast, furious and dangerous. It is 50/50 chance either way. Wonderboy may have more experience but Till has enough experience.
