Which song did Stephen 'Wonderboy' Thompson walk out to at UFC Vegas 17?

Stephen 'Wonderboy' Thompson walked out to the Tenacious D's song called 'Wonderboy'. The 37-year-old picked up the victory against Geoff Neal via unanimous decision (50-45, 50-45, 50-45).

Funnily, enough the lyrics of the song go:

There sits Wonderboy, sitting oh so proudly..

Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?

Wonderboy, won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck man?

The former kick-boxer started the first round brilliantly constantly switching stances and pushing Neal back with side-kicks. The Karate black-belt established his jab early from both stances, consistently building to a one-two.

Neal's game plan revolved around his left-hand and the only chance he had of landing the strike was when he could corner Wonderboy to the cage. However, that wasn't often, especially in the first three rounds.

In the 4th and 5th round, Wonderboy appeared to be chasing the finish as he decided to stand in the pocket and fight Neal. The southpaw had much more success trading punch for punch with Wonderboy. But ultimately, the Karateka's skill and movement proved too much for Neal to handle.
