Stephen Thompson vs Geoff Neal Preview
After great success we had with MMA bets suggestions for Cage Warriors events, especially with fights Adam Amarasinghe vs Sam Creasey and Luke Shanks vs Jake Hadley, we’ve decided to do a Thompson vs Neal betting preview.
The nickname of Stephen Thompson (15-4-1) is Wonderboy, but he hasn’t been a boy for a while – he’s turning 38 in less than two months. This guy’s been fighting in the UFC for ages, with his promotional debut happening in 2021.
Thompson has since fought many big names from the world of MMA, including Robert Whittaker and Jorge Masvidal. He hasn’t fought a single fight in 2020, with his most recent fight happening in November 2019. That’s when he beat Vicente Luque by unanimous decision. The victory came after two consecutive defeats.
This time, he’s taking on Geoff Neal (13-2-0), who’s won his previous seven fights, five of which were UFC bouts. The Handz of Steel won against some really tough fighters in those bouts, including Muhammad Belal, Nico Price, and Mike Perry. Can he prolong his winning streak?
FatCatBet’s Thompson vs Neal Betting Tips
Only one of Neal’s five UFC fights was decided by the judges. The rest ended before the final bell. Thompson, on the other hand, tends to go the distance, which was the case in six of his previous seven fights.
That said, it’s obvious that Thompson is a tactical fighter who knows how to keep his calm. Neal, on the other hand, might be more impatient. The thing is that he’s hungry for success, as winning the Thompson vs Neal fight could give a fantastic boost to his professional MMA career.
You can think of this fight as the decisive moment for Geoff Neal, who’s announced earlier this year that he’s returned to his job as a server at a Texas Roadhouse. Unless he wants to serve plates for the rest of his life, Neal needs to win this fight.

Other Exciting Fights from UFC Fight Night 183
Apart from the Thompson vs Neal fight, there are many other interesting matchups in the fight card of the UFC Fight Night 183. For instance, Jose Aldo (28-7-0) is taking on Marlon Vera (16-6-0) in a bantamweight fight. Aldo is hoping to salvage his MMA career after three consecutive loses. He needs to beat Vera unless he wants to risk his UFC future.
Another interesting fight is the one between Anthony Pettis (23-10-0) and Alex Morono (18-6-0). Pettis made his return to the welterweight division in May at UFC 249, in which he beat Cowboy Cerrone by unanimous decision. His next win should come on December 19.
