Gallery Photos: Best of Stephen Thompson view 16 images If things were just a little bit different, Stephen Thompson could be the current UFC welterweight champion, riding an 11-fight winning streak inside the octagon. Unfortunately that’s not his reality, and instead he has just one win in his past four bouts. The cookie has not crumbled in Thompson’s (14-3-1 MMA, 9-3-1 UFC) favor in recent fights, and he’s prepared to do something about it. After making a stellar run up the 170-pound division, “Wonderboy” had a two-fight series with champ Tyron Woodley, fighting to a majority draw in the first bout at UFC 205 in November 2016, then losing a majority decision in the rematch at UFC 209 in March 2017. Thompson rebounded with a win over Jorge Masvidal at UFC 217 in November, but in his most recent bout at UFC Fight Night 130 in May, lost a highly competitive unanimous decision to Darren Till
