斯蒂芬·“神童”·汤普森把手套留在了八角笼里。一记转身踢刚刚将查尔斯·拉德克踢倒在地；此刻，这位43岁的老将放下了自己早已决定结束的职业生涯所使用的工具。这场胜利是他想要的谢幕，而不是让他改变主意的理由。⁠1⁠2

2026年11月14日，汤普森在纽约麦迪逊广场花园举行的UFC 334赛事中击败拉德克后退役。两人的比赛是预赛的收官战，MMA Fighting报道称，终结发生在第三回合2:54。这一刻既终结了汤普森的三连败，也结束了他长达16年的MMA生涯。⁠2⁠3⁠6

以这种方式收尾颇为契合。汤普森2012年以一记高扫踢击倒对手，开启UFC生涯；如今，他又以一记踢击终结对手，为UFC生涯画上句号。在这两次终结之间，他两度挑战冠军，战胜了几位次中量级顶尖选手；即使败绩不断增加，他的打击风格依然危险。⁠1

一场靠实力赢来的告别战

拉德克并没有让汤普森轻松拿下这场告别战的最后高光时刻。他一开场就迅速缩短距离，在首分钟内将汤普森摔倒，并从上位展开进攻；汤普森则试图站起来。重新站起只解决了部分问题：拉德克仍在笼边的缠斗中控制着他。⁠2

汤普森摆脱纠缠后，比赛开始出现变化。他以刺拳建立优势，掌控距离，迫使拉德克面对反击，而不是只顾着把他逼到围栏边。汤普森的调整对理解最终的终结很重要。这并非一位毫发无损的老将突然闪现灵光、一击制胜；他首先必须摆脱对手想要的近距离缠斗。⁠2

第二回合，拉德克再次试图抱摔。各方报道对他是否成功摔倒汤普森说法不一：Bloody Elbow在11月14日的报道中称他成功完成抱摔，随后汤普森更快地脱身；MMA Fighting于11月15日的报道则称汤普森有效地阻止了抱摔。两篇报道都指出，随着回合推进，汤普森对站立交锋的控制力越来越强，他将直拳与踢击结合起来，铃声响起前，拉德克已难以还击。⁠1⁠2

第三回合，汤普森一记脚跟踢击中对手面部，随后继续以拳腿组合攻击逐渐放慢节奏的对手。拉德克试图通过缠斗喘口气，但最终被那记决定性的转身踢击倒。这场精彩的终结，是汤普森持续掌控比赛后水到渠成的结果，并非局势突然逆转。⁠1⁠2

甚至对获胜招式的描述也不止一种。Bloody Elbow称之为转身轮踢；MMA Fighting在标题中也使用了同一说法，但在正文中称其为转身后踢。UFC发布的最后一战视频标题使用的是转身轮踢。赛后，汤普森称之为“转身后踢”。这些描述并不完全一致，但都认同核心结果：他在最后一战中以转身踢终结对手。现有的官方结果文字无法独立确认报道所称的比赛时间，也无法确定正式判定应归类为KO还是TKO。⁠1⁠2⁠4⁠5

我在UFC待了将近15年，再没有什么比用一记转身后踢踢中对手头部更好了。

他赛后发言中展现出的自信，很快让位于更脆弱的一面。汤普森说：“我告诉自己，我不会哭。我只想说，我爱你们。” Bloody Elbow报道称，乔·罗根在最后一次采访中落泪。随后，汤普森把手套留在了场上。⁠1⁠2

从未到手的冠军头衔

据Bloody Elbow报道，汤普森在踢拳领域以57胜0负的战绩保持不败后，于2010年转战MMA；报道未区分职业赛与业余赛。他在加入UFC前赢下了最初的五场MMA比赛。2012年2月的UFC 143赛事是他在该推广组织的首秀，他在首回合以高扫踢击倒丹·斯蒂特根获胜。⁠1

随后，他以一致判定负于马特·布朗，但接下来连续七场胜利让汤普森进入冠军争夺行列。罗伯特·惠特克、约翰尼·亨德里克斯和罗里·麦克唐纳都是他在这段上升期击败的对手。2016年UFC 205赛事中，他首次挑战泰伦·伍德利的冠军头衔，结果以多数判定平局收场。2017年UFC 209的二番战中，伍德利以多数判定获胜。汤普森从未夺得UFC次中量级冠军，此后也再未获得冠军挑战机会。⁠1⁠3

这是他战绩上的局限，却不是把他的职业生涯简单化的理由。此后战胜豪尔赫·马斯维达尔、文森特·卢克、杰夫·尼尔和凯文·霍兰德，让他在伍德利两战之后依然保持了很长时间的竞争力。即使两次冠军挑战标志着他竞技状态的巅峰，他的职业生涯也远不止这两次失利的冠军挑战。⁠1

职业生涯最后阶段则更加艰难。他先后负于沙夫卡特·拉赫莫诺夫、华金·巴克利和加布里埃尔·邦芬，因此以17胜9负1平的战绩迎战拉德克。这场告别战的胜利让他的总战绩变为18胜9负1平。他在UFC的战绩为13胜9负1平，涵盖23次出场，统计范围不同：最初的五场胜利发生在他加入该推广组织之前。⁠1⁠3⁠7

在获胜前就已作出的决定

放下手套的举动完成了一个计划，而不是宣布突然退役。汤普森在比赛之夜前就公开表示自己打算停赛；UFC于11月11日发布的专题报道也已将他与拉德克的比赛称为他的最后一场比赛。Heavy还报道称，他在前一周确认了这一决定；但不应把那次确认误认为他首次谈及退役。⁠1⁠3⁠11

赛果之外的生活也推动他作出了这个决定。Heavy报道称，汤普森最近迎来了一个女儿，他希望能陪伴年轻的家人，而不是继续在八角笼里承受伤害、再打上许多年。他提到自己在UFC待了“将近15年”，说的是他在该推广组织的年限；而他的MMA生涯始于2010年，时间更长。⁠2⁠3

最后一场比赛以击倒对手获胜，并不能抹去败绩、补上缺失的冠军头衔，也不意味着他还需要再打一场。它让汤普森最后一次展现了自己的本领。而放下手套，则是另一个独立且经过深思熟虑的举动，正是它让这场比赛成为告别。

播出原貌
  1. Stephen Thompson knocked out Charles Radtke, then left his gloves in the octagon.
  2. The 43-year-old ends a 16-year MMA career with a victory that breaks a three-fight losing streak. He'd already decided this would be his last fight.
  3. One detail of that final victory still divides the descriptions: was it a spinning wheel kick or a spinning back kick?
  4. Thompson's farewell closed the preliminary card at UFC 334 in New York's Madison Square Garden on November 14. The finish came a reported two minutes, fifty-four seconds into round three, after he'd worked through Radtke's early grappling pressure.
  5. Radtke took him down inside the opening minute and worked from top position. Thompson tried to get back up, but regaining his feet didn't immediately free him. Radtke kept him pinned in a clinch against the cage. Thompson eventually broke away and began landing his jab, using distance and counterstrikes to change the fight.
  6. Radtke pursued another takedown in the second round. Whether he completed it is disputed. Thompson increasingly found room for straight punches and varied kicks. By the round's end, he was landing sustained offense, and Radtke was struggling to answer.
  7. Thompson landed a heel kick to the face in the third and kept combining punches with kicks. Radtke slowed and sought relief in the clinch. The spinning strike finally sent him to the canvas. The finish followed Thompson's growing control of the exchanges after that difficult opening round.
  8. The finish has been called both a spinning wheel kick and a spinning back kick. Thompson himself called it a spin back kick afterward. The common ground is the spinning-kick stoppage that ended his final fight.
  9. Thompson had carried seventeen wins, nine losses and one draw into the bout. His three straight defeats came against Shavkat Rakhmonov, Joaquin Buckley and Gabriel Bonfim. Beating Radtke ended that run and added a tenth stoppage victory to his career. He leaves with eighteen wins overall.
  10. Subscribe to this channel as we follow Thompson's next chapter after his final fight.
  11. His overall MMA record finishes at eighteen wins, nine losses and one draw. Inside the UFC, he went thirteen wins, nine losses and one draw across twenty-three appearances. His first five MMA victories came before he joined the promotion.
  12. Thompson moved into MMA in 2010 after an unbeaten kickboxing run, reportedly fifty-seven wins without a loss. His UFC debut came in February 2012 at UFC 143. He knocked out Dan Stittgen with a first-round head kick. His promotional career therefore began and ended with a kick that stopped his opponent.
  13. After losing his next UFC appearance to Matt Brown by unanimous decision, Thompson won seven straight fights. That run earned two welterweight title challenges against Tyron Woodley. Their 2016 meeting ended in a majority draw; Thompson lost the 2017 rematch by majority decision.
  14. Robert Whittaker, Johny Hendricks and Rory MacDonald were among the fighters he beat on his way up. Later victories over Jorge Masvidal, Vicente Luque, Geoff Neal and Kevin Holland kept him relevant well beyond those championship opportunities. Thompson never won the UFC's 170-pound title and received no further title challenge after Woodley.
  15. After the win, Thompson said, “I've been with the UFC for almost 15 years, I couldn't have asked for better than a spin back kick to the dome.” That stretch covers his UFC career, within his sixteen years competing in MMA.
  16. He continued, “I don't care if your hands are up, a spin back kick, you're going down.” Then the celebration became more personal. “I told myself I wasn't going to cry. I just want to say I love you.” He put down his gloves after delivering the victory he'd hoped to leave with.
  17. Joe Rogan was in tears during the final interview. Thompson had made his retirement plans public before fight night and confirmed them again in the preceding week. He followed through on that decision after beating Radtke.
  18. His recently born daughter helped shape that choice. Thompson wanted time with his young family rather than more years absorbing damage in the cage. By November 11, his final competition was already approaching with that decision made. At forty-three, he leaves MMA with eighteen victories, including ten by stoppage, and two UFC championship challenges.
