Stephen Thompson Is Close To A Title Shot
3 years agoStephen Thompson (16-4-1) could potentially be one more victory away from earning a title shot against Kamaru Usman. That victory would have to come at UFC 264 on Saturday in the co-main event at the expense of Gilbert Burns. After losing three of four bouts, Thompson turned it around to win to decisions against tough opponents in Vicente Luque and Geoff Neal. Now the striker will have to earn a victory over the dangerous ground artist in Burns. DraftKings sees Wonderboy as the favorite, listing him with a salary of $8,500. Throughout his lengthy UFC career, Thompson averages 74.4 fantasy points per contest.
