Yeah Gomi is overrated!!! LOL People who say that must know nothing at all about MMA. Go take alook at all the top 10 light weights he beat, He is one of the best light weights there is if not the best !!!! Please before you say Gomi is overrated please know a little something about him and who he has fought ??? I guess just becasue he was never on relaity show he is not that GOOD. LOL !!! and for the people who say Penn destroyed him he did not it was a close fight and Penn was fighting as a welterweight at the time and Gomi as a leightweight ?

Gomi would level the lightweight division like a typhoon

Diaz the steroid user????? It was marijuana. It was also one of the greatest lightweight fights I have seen. Diaz must have been stoned to come up with that Gogo-plata. Awesome. I can’t wait to see what Gomi can do in the octagon. It is a lot different than the small ring, but he does have MAD SKILLS. I still want to see a rematch with Diaz though. I think Diaz was robbed of his victory.

and to the idiot who referenced diaz the steroid user. if they fought when he wasn’t using it would be a different story just look at what happened with kj can you say domination. and i saw the fight with bj, gomi lost but there is no denying that bj can be the best and he can have off days just like gomi. they should fight again i can’t tell you i wouldn’t care who won because it would be a great fight. i do think gomi can win and anyone who thinks he can’t understands nothing about fighting.

if you don’t know who gomi is then you don’t know anything about mma. he beat up hansen, pulver, and the fireball kid who also could defeat anyone in the ufc lightweight division. the ufc has added some bad rules and left out some great ones. point 1 not allowing knees to downed opponent or kicks to downed opponent. both are part of a fight and allow a striker to evade a wrestler. point 2 pride had the best rule ever for a slow fight a yellow card which would penalize a fighter stalling 10% of their purse. that said the worst thing that ufc has created is stupid fans. booing great fights because they’re to dumb to understand what is taking place. gomi is a great fighter and should be given respect no matter if he is champ or just a contender. that said he will be in the top three when he enters and will show everyone that Anderson silva(Pride fighter) is not the only one who will bruise his weight division.

Gomi & BJ did fight, and I thought BJ made Gomi tap via rear naked choke. BJ dominated that fight as well from beginning to end. Has anyone one else here seen that fight?

i dont think gomi stands a chance fighting most of the top guys in the ufc…not unless he gets that horrible cardio in line and im not even joking…dont ya’ll remember the beating diaz put on him after Gomi gassed???? not too take anything away from Gomi…hes a phenomanal fighter and has an outstanding record but lets face facts here most of the fighters in the UFC LW division are jus cardio monsters and it wouldnt be good too see another top pride fighter come in and get dominated like so many b4 him….put Gomi in with randy and lets see what he can do for his cardio then maybe i’ll jump on this one small man band wagon
