Stephen Thompson reveals a timeline for his possible return to MMA action.
The former title contender in the welterweight division has been put on the sidelines as a result of his latest fight under the UFC banner. Going into this fight, he had hoped to headline the UFC’s debut in his home state of South Carolina this June.
Those plans were nixed once he was medically suspended due to the way that his last fight ended. Ex-UFC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis scored a second-round knockout over the title contender in the headliner of UFC Nashville.
This event went down on March 24, 2019, at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee on ESPN+. Following this fight, Thompson had to be sent to a hospital.
While doing a recent interview with Bloody Elbow, Thompson noted that he hopes to return to the Octagon possibly in August with the hope to return to training at the end of June.
Thompson has been on a roller coaster ride since getting his first title fight booked against Tyron Woodley. He went to a draw with the then-champion at UFC 205 and then suffered a split decision loss to Woodley at UFC 209.
He scored a decision win over Jorge Masvidal at UFC 217. Since then, he lost two straight fights with losses to Darren Till in May 2018 by decision and then to Pettis.

Anthony Pettis left UFC Nashville with a spectacular knockout victory last month, however, he didn’t exit the Octagon unscathed.
ESPN reports that “Showtime” suffered a broken nose after his victory over Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson. Doctors have determined the ex-lightweight champ doesn’t need surgery, but he will need to rest for four-to-six weeks. Pettis pulled off a sensational superman punch knockout over the two-time welterweight title challenger in the second round of their main event meeting.
With the win, he became just one of three fighters in UFC history to get a victory in three different weight classes (featherweight, lightweight, welterweight). Pettis joins Conor McGregor and Kenny Florian in the record books. The Milwaukee native has not finalized a next opponent as of this writing, however, he’s hoping to get back to work this summer.
The 32-year-old is eying a return to 155 pounds where some fun match-ups could be waiting after his big win. Perhaps a bout with former World Series Of Fighting (WSOF) lightweight champ Justin Gaethje, who comes off of a ridiculous knockout of his own, would be a fun match-up?
