A minute into this second round and little action so far – just lots of feinting.

Wonderboy is back to his feet! He uses the fence well to stand, despite eating some right hands in the process.

Thompson vs Burns: Round 1

A twitchy start. Thirty seconds in and no strikes thrown. “USA” chants cascade from the crowd in support of Thompson. Burns ducks his head and swings some wild hooks, but the Brazilian misses.

Burns shoots for a single-leg takedown and pushes Thompson to the fence. Good defence from Wonderboy so far. The crowd begins to boo – they want this fight out in the open.

The pair remain against the fence, though, with Burns still struggling to advance the position.

Finally he secures the takedown, however!

Burns is a jiu-jitsu expert with tremendous power in his hands. The former lightweight is a phenomenal athlete and undoubtedly one of the best 170lbers in the world.

Last time out, he was stopped by friend and former teammate Usman with the title on the line.

The Brazilian likely needs a few wins to get back into the title picture, but a victory over Wonderboy tonight would be a great start to that journey.

Wonderboy is out first to “Wonderboy” by Tenacious D – as always.

Karate specialist Thompson, who went 58-0 as a kickboxer, is a crowd favourite and always has been. But at 38, time is running out for the American to claim the welterweight strap.

If the nicest guy in MMA can beat Burns tonight, he might just get a crack at Usman next.

That said, Leon Edwards and Colby Covington are still in the conversation.

Wonderboy drew with then-champion Tyron Woodley when he first challenged for the welterweight title in 2016 – also on the undercard of a McGregor fight – before being outpointed in the rematch.

The former undefeated kickboxer, 38, is the only top welterweight to have not yet faced current champion Usman, though.

We’re rattling through this card! The co-main event is already upon us.

Stephen ‘Wonderboy’ Thompson (16-4-1) looks to make one last run at the welterweight title as he takes on Gilbert Burns (19-4), who lost to champion Kamaru Usman last time out.

McGregor fights tend to bring out the stars, though his January clash with Poirier took place with with just a couple thousand fans in attendance in Abu Dhabi.

Tonight, normal order has been restored in a sold-out T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, Jared Leto, Logan Paul, Machine Gun Kelly, Megan Fox and Dave Chappelle are among the celebrities in the UFC 264 crowd.
