Stephen Thompson vs. Chris Clements Highlights (Thompson KNOCKS OUT Clements)

Stephen Thompson faced Chris Clements on September 21, 2013, at UFC 165.

On paper, welterweight strikers Stephen Thompson and Chris Clements were one of the favorites to take home Fight of the Night honors at UFC 165. This one was expected to be a striking showcase for two knockout artists, and the array of spinning kicks was immediately on display in the opening 2 minutes. Clements even knocked Thompson off balance with a wheel kick to his right leg. Thompson scored a brief takedown but Clements stood back up. Thompson used his length to fire away a jab and a left hand in the middle of the round, and he finished the 1st with a takedown as well as full mount.

Clements was dropped early in the 2nd round with left-right-left combo, but Thompson was unable to get the finish on the ground and they returned to the stand-up game. It didn't last long, as Thompson fired away two right hands and then one final left to send Clements crashing against the cage, forcing John McCarthy to stop the fight.
