Stephen Thompson ‘surprised’ to get called out by Anthony Pettis


Stephen Thompson catches up with Ariel Helwani and says he was “excited just to get offered a fight” when Anthony “Showtime” Pettis was offered to him at UFC Fight Night: Nashville in April after not fighting for seven months. Thompson says his knee is “100 percent” after being injured for a while. He says he and Pettis have “a similar style” and Pettis is a great fighter. He says Pettis is “best prepared” for his style than anyone else in the division. He also says he wants Kamaru Usman to beat Tyron Woodley for the betterment of his own career.

  1. Yo E Savage if you read this, Mexican's are white. You white bruh.

  2. Wonderboy. Silva. Adesanya. Three of the best strikers in UFC history
    Easy fight for Thompson tbh

  3. Funny you take the easiest fight possible out of all the names you threw out but magically this one is going to happen? a guy who is 3 weight classes below and a win against pettis does nothing for your career to move it forward.
