Stephen Thompson is all healed up and eyeing a November return to the octagon.
With the ever-evolving state of the welterweight division, “Wonderboy” knows he has limited options currently on the road to another title opportunity.
Thompson last competed at UFC 244 in November where he defeated Vicente Luque via unanimous decision at Madison Square Garden. The 37-year-old broke both of his hands in the victory, an injury that took quite a bit of time to heal, according to Thompson.
Just as things were starting to come together for a return, the world changed, along with Thompson suffering another odd, accidental injury at the hands of his brother-in-law and former middleweight champion Chris Weidman.
