Jack Black was unable to be in Stephen Thompson ’s corner at UFC on ESPN 42 , but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t still paying close attention. Thompson (17-6-1 MMA, 12-6-1 UFC), who beat Kevin Holland (23-9 MMA, 9-6 UFC) by fourth-round TKO due to corner stoppage in Saturday’s welterweight headliner at Amway Center in Orlando, Fla., has formed a bond with the actor after he’s spent a career walking out to “Wonderboy” by Black’s side project band Tenacious D.
