Pamplona (12-2) out of Brazil is currently riding a string of seven straight wins, three last year with M-1 Challenge. His last loss was in February 2007 in a superfight against Robbie Lawler in the IFL.
Thompson (38-12-1)'s career took a hit last summer when he suffered back-to-back losses to Tim Kennedy and Dan Hornbuckle in Strikeforce and Sengoku, respectively. Thompson holds wins against Paul Daley, Eddie Alvarez, Chris Wilson and Josh Neer.
