Fighting style
Thompson is well known for his Kempo style of karate which he has trained in from an early age. This karate background is evident in the stance he adopts, as his feet stand far apart and he sits wide with his hands low. This style is very uncommon in MMA, with most fighters having a background in wrestling or jiu-jitsu, or striking arts like boxing, muay thai, or other styles of kickboxing. His footwork is described as "hopping back and forth", like other practitioners do such as Conor McGregor, Robert Whittaker and Zhang Weili. The benefit of this "hopping" while in neutral is that, like the low or non-existent guard, your striking and movement becomes unpredictable.[94]
His wide, hopping karate stance allows him to cover distance and launch kicks rapidly. Analysts and fighters have praised 'Wonderboy' for his ability to keep other fighters in his range whilst staying out of theirs.[94] The risk of being knocked out compels most fighters to keep their hands up in 'guard', but Thompson, among others such as Jiří Procházka, keeps his hands very low. The benefits of a very low guard are that your punches and elbows become very hard to predict, and one is better prepared to defend against takedowns. Thompson is more suited to keeping his hands low than other fighters who adopt more orthodox MMA stances, as he can negate the risk of being hit with a clean shot to the head through his footwork and rapid movement.
Personal life
Thompson's sister is married to Carlos Machado[18] and Thompson's brother, Tony, is married to Chris Weidman's sister.[95]
In 2017, he signed a contract with international modeling agency IMG Models.[96]
Entertainment career
In 2022, Thompson made his acting debut as Sensei Morozov in two episodes of season 5 of the Netflix series Cobra Kai.[97]
