I'm sad that I don't get to see one of my favorite fighters in the main card tomorrow, but I'm also happy to see Wonderboy stand up for what's right. Good on him, hopefully they give him a professional next time.

UFC doesn't pay it's fighters their worth. I am 100% behind Thompson here.

Love Wonderboy, and am glad to see he is looking out for himself.

I am not gonna blame Wonderboy, he is not the one who fucked up.

Still I am pretty bummed out and I think he would have beaten Pereira in a standup battle.
It would be kinda shitty though if Pereira were to come in heavy and then wrestle the whole fight.
