Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson has arrived as a fresh face of the UFC's welterweight division.
Johny Hendricks entered the fight looking in great shape, but looks aren't everything.
Thompson dusted former champion, and No. 1-ranked contender, Hendricks inside of the first round at UFC Fight Night 82 in Las Vegas. He was accurate and deadly with his strikes. Hendricks stood in front of him and ate punches and kicks until he could no longer take the punishment.
The 170-pound division was not short on viable contenders before Saturday, and they certainly are not post-Saturday. Thompson looked the part of a title challenger.
What's next for Thompson, and where does Hendricks go from here? What about the others who competed at UFC Fight Night 82? Here are the matches to make following all the action in Las Vegas.
