Stephen Thompson ‘happy’ with new UFC deal, ‘upset’ by interim title snub

Stephen Thompson signed a new deal with the UFC ahead of his main event meeting with Darren Till at UFC Liverpool. But although “Wonderboy” is content with his new contract, he isn’t overjoyed about not being given a crack at the interim welterweight title, which will be on the line when Rafael dos Anjos faces Colby Covington on June 9 at UFC 225.
Thompson admitted that the UFC’s attempts to match him with Till helped him in his negotiations before he put pen to paper.
