Phew. I feel bad that I was happy when Sotiropoulos pulled out of the fight. I felt in danger for Gomi when I heard they were putting him up against a submission machine. At least set him up with Duane Ludwig or something so we can see dudes bang it out.
@BrokenChinglish Dude, I don't watch much mma, but of what I have seen, Gomi has tremendous boxing talent, he has great instinct and reaction speed and doesn't waste too much energy needlessly. However, it looks like the guy has already peaked.
@BrokenChinglish he is old now u dumb idiot....body weakens...very soon anderson silva will start losing just like bj penn, randy couture, etc...check his age and see he cant remain good like he used to be....
@xXCrusher509Xx nothing happened to him, in fact, he got a little better. but his opponents go a lot better, and there are more wrestlers now, which is his weakness.
the Japanese fights are way better then this shit we have out here in america were you cant kick when your down or no hit to the back of the head it sucks ass
Gomi just got a little bit lazy nowadays is his problem. He just doesnt put in the work he used to and gets by on having concrete for hands. Doesnt change the fact that he very well may have been the best lightweight in the world at one point in time. Easily my favourite japanese fighter. Now and forever.

Takanori Gomi is a Legend in mma the only thing is that this new mma fans dont know how good he real is because they watch to much ufc. If anything the Gomi vs Diaz fight in pride should be the best fight ever, i watch that fight over 100 time
arright guys, Gomi is a legend... one of the best Lightwei....NO, scratch that. One of the best of all time to compete. But his glory days are fading.....stop putting him against top competitions. Let him have some good fights, match him up w/ some decent but not the top of the tier competition.
Indeed he looked terrible, he needs to realise that the UFC nowadays is probably tougher than Pride in the fact that you need to be much more complete. Nowadays all fighters know some Boxing, Wrestling and JJ. Gomi just comes in and trys to KO people recklessly which costs him every time in the UFC.
@boogynights I agree, good point. Gomi has always been better in the ring. He's no stranger to the cage, but he does look more awkward in it. Maybe not used to the size..
i can't stand these "tapout" fuckers who claim to be experts in mma but have a retarded look on their face when you mention names like igor vovchanchyn, Kazushi Sakuraba, Takanori Gomi...etc. etc.
gomi's the man! sucks that the UFC bought out PRIDE when these guys were near the end of their reigns. UFC made em look bad. but i still love PRIDE more than anything. i could watch those events over and over again :)
lotta Highlights I see......something is always not right. Maybe the music is wrong, it's too short, too long, the timing, quality sucks...etc etc
but this one is Fantastic. Music great, Quality is great. Not only the BEST Gomi highlight but one of the best HL i've seen on Youtube in any category...
@specialforces69 i don't get this, so if japanese fighters also aren't used to fighting americans, why is it that they always win in your examples? and rampage isn't japanese.. you should probably say that UFC fighters aren't used to fighting in a ring and PRIDE fighters aren't used to fighting in a cage. just saying.
jap fighters are more overated than anything you gusy see what happens to him in the ufc ofcouse he can beat tyson chicken griffen who has no game at all but he coulný even beat kflo what a joke i was really expecting more out of him he let me down but proved what i always knew even guida kicked his ass
I like the way they show him knock Nick Diaz down at 1:44.....but it doesn't show the nasty beating Nick gave Gomi....plus the awesome submission to finish Gomi
@Kovayaj if your favorite fighter was fedor you had no buisness watching fights anyways fedor fell off years ago by taking bullshit fights to keep his record. he hasnt fought anyone relevent to the fight buisness in years sence probably fucking Mirko lol he needs to retire and just let it go if he dosnt i bet he takes another bullshit fight he might as well fight a 155lb er in a catchweight so he can go out on a win assuming he can muster enough skill to get a win better just retire lol
@ammodawg626 i thought Fedor was tought and that no one could mess with him. he hit Arlosky with one punch. well, Santos is my favor fighter now. Santos will be UFC champion soon.
@Kovayaj andre is a joke now days dont get me wrong he's a hell of a fighter but his jaw is pure glass he's been knocked out what 7 times now fedor got him after he had been ko'd i think like 3 or 4 times andre is to small he should go down to 205 he's to small for a real heavyweight. and Santos has a long road we'll see.
@SamuraiZach0 dude he's done his jaw is spent its as gone as chuck liddell dont get me wrong im an arlavski fan i like the dude he's got great personality and is a good fighter but he's spent bro his jaw is pure glass now he aint the ufc champ level anymore he's to weak to fight big guys anymore he should try to cut weight and go to 205 he's done dude.

Why do jap fighters always come over to the states and fail so hard? Probably because the "good" Japanese fighters always get fed cans and their fans over exaggerate their greatness. THe only one that can stand against top competition is Yushin Okami. And he seriously just is a point fighter. I want a DOMINATE Japanese fighter to come to the ufc and just fuck everyone up, it would shut up people like me
@Livasyandrew Gomi is way past his prime and has been since 06 =/
Kid hasnt looked the same since he fought in HEROES. Omigawa was given a very bad matchup stylistically for his UFC FW debut, but I'm confident he'll rebound and do well in the UFC. Akiyama is a natural WW and has abandoned his judo to put on brawls for the fans.
The best Japanese fighter at the moment is Hioki, I have no doubt Hioki would beat every UFC FW, even Aldo.
@TehBakaSabaiba I am not aware of this Hioki, I will look into it. I am one of those people who got into MMA via TUF's first season. I'm not ashamed to admit it lol. I am a huge mma fan now, I have watched every UFC,WEC,Strikforce and I am working on PRIDE atm, I am in the early years and basically all I see is International fighters dominating Japanese fighters and then the Inters fight each other and it gets brutal. But I definitely see why Kazushi Sakuraba was a hit. The guy is exiting!
gomi is probably the only japanese fighter who fought with his heart. most other japanese fighters who came to america and fought are sore losers. the worst one was the guy who fought with kenny florian. so pathetic.
@lbizzythefire i hope so. so far, i have been disappointed with japanese fighters.i like masato but he retired and he was a muay thai fighter.. meaning that maybe he may not be good on the ground.
@lbizzythefire i hope so. so far, i have been disappointed with japanese fighters.i like masato but he retired and he is a muay thai fighter.. meaning that maybe he may not be good on the ground.
2nd best LW to ever live. clay guida will prolly go on to win the LW title bcuz frankie wont no what to do with clay, however id hate to be clay guida when Gomi comes knocking on the door for a rematch, the Fire ball kid is back man, he just had a minor set back.
Ok, ok, so Gomi got submitted. Big whoop. We all know he's a fantastic striker, and so did Guida's corner, who apparently made damn sure Clay needed to stay out of range, which he did an entertaining job of doing, I'll admit. I think Gomi got impatient when he threw that knee and that's where Guida found his opening. And, unlike Guida's fans, he was a good sport about it. He even gave Gomi a hug after he got up off the mat.
@Crazytribe I don't think Gomi really has anything left to prove in the UFC. I love seeing him fight, but I think most MMA fans already see him as the #2 best Lightweight ever. Clay Guida fans can rant and rave all they want but it doesn't change the past.
@Crazytribe I agree. I have add in Gomi's defense, without the knees on the ground, his fight rhythm gets changed considerably. It's the same reason why a lot of fighters that crossed over from Pride to UFC and vice versa ended up on the short end of the stick because they ended up playing by rules that were changed for them, but their opponents were used to. I.E. if you're used to defending a strike flurry by dropping and grabbing for legs, you were often in for a big knee surprise in Pride..
I LOVE how at the beginning he's practiceing the left liver kick. then BANG first fight nails the brazilian off the bat with the same kick. gengis u legend. god speed and party on.
im sad! he was too worried about the victory, he had guida against the web once just waiting for him and he backed away. he had great takedown defense. i still believe hes gonna comeback. i think he just needs 2 wins in a row to get hes aura of destruction back or will end up like like cro cop.
One of my all time favorite fighters. There was a time when he was one of the best pound for pound fighters in the world, its sad to see him so inconsistent now. During his Pride days he would have made Clay Guida into his bitch. Either way, great video man.
@Trevonderfull223 yeah clay is looking amazing lol funny fight but clay is running for his title shot nothing is going to stop him not even lil gomi !
Gomi is past is prime, not the superstar fighter he used to be. to me this fight determined whether he still had it, he doesnt. it was a great run for GOMI, former #1 lightweight in the WORLD, former Pride champion, and a whole lot of other championships. the fireball kids Flame is out. Too bad too, he was my all-time favorite fighter.
BRANDON BURKE- I FELL BUT I GOT BACK UP- I CAN BEAT GOMI- MY NEW FIGHTS ARE UP AND I AM WAITING TO GO PRO I HAVE COME SO FAR IN THE YEAR SINCE MY LAST FIGHT WHATCH ME
@Bones12x2 well said, i agree. also the thing is that there are fresh new talent in japan but the ufc don't hire those guys cause they don't bring money. they only hire Japanese fighters that have already been in battles and have some fame so they can make money. the problem with that is that most of those fighters are nearing or passed their prime...
Phew. I feel bad that I was happy when Sotiropoulos pulled out of the fight. I felt in danger for Gomi when I heard they were putting him up against a submission machine. At least set him up with Duane Ludwig or something so we can see dudes bang it out.

2nd best LW to ever live. clay guida will prolly go on to win the LW title bcuz frankie wont no what to do with clay, however id hate to be clay guida when Gomi comes knocking on the door for a rematch, the Fire ball kid is back man, he just had a minor set back.

Ok, ok, so Gomi got submitted. Big whoop. We all know he's a fantastic striker, and so did Guida's corner, who apparently made damn sure Clay needed to stay out of range, which he did an entertaining job of doing, I'll admit. I think Gomi got impatient when he threw that knee and that's where Guida found his opening. And, unlike Guida's fans, he was a good sport about it. He even gave Gomi a hug after he got up off the mat.

yeah hes a great sport that can't resist hitting people after the ref stops the fight.

@Crazytribe I don't think Gomi really has anything left to prove in the UFC. I love seeing him fight, but I think most MMA fans already see him as the #2 best Lightweight ever. Clay Guida fans can rant and rave all they want but it doesn't change the past.

@Crazytribe I agree. I have add in Gomi's defense, without the knees on the ground, his fight rhythm gets changed considerably. It's the same reason why a lot of fighters that crossed over from Pride to UFC and vice versa ended up on the short end of the stick because they ended up playing by rules that were changed for them, but their opponents were used to. I.E. if you're used to defending a strike flurry by dropping and grabbing for legs, you were often in for a big knee surprise in Pride..

I LOVE how at the beginning he's practiceing the left liver kick. then BANG first fight nails the brazilian off the bat with the same kick. gengis u legend. god speed and party on.

im sad! he was too worried about the victory, he had guida against the web once just waiting for him and he backed away. he had great takedown defense. i still believe hes gonna comeback. i think he just needs 2 wins in a row to get hes aura of destruction back or will end up like like cro cop.

One of my all time favorite fighters. There was a time when he was one of the best pound for pound fighters in the world, its sad to see him so inconsistent now. During his Pride days he would have made Clay Guida into his bitch. Either way, great video man.

i was really disappointed in Gomi at 125. He didn't seem.........himself, it looked like he was really awkward, kinda like the Kenny Florian fight.
I thought for sure Gomi was gonna wreck Guida....
very disappointed, I don't think Gomi can make a run for the title if he can't beat Guida.

That lucky ugly bastard of kenny Florian thinks is better than Gomi...
If florian would have show up his ass in the pride ring at that time gomi would have knocked out his ugly face !

Gomi is past is prime, not the superstar fighter he used to be. to me this fight determined whether he still had it, he doesnt. it was a great run for GOMI, former #1 lightweight in the WORLD, former Pride champion, and a whole lot of other championships. the fireball kids Flame is out. Too bad too, he was my all-time favorite fighter.

I hate how alot of UFC fans hate on the Japanese fighters, cause with a few exceptions they typically havent done well in the UFC.
Problem is none of them start in the UFC, they dont get famous enough until they are near or passed their prime.
I would have loved to see The Fireball Kid and Kid Yamamoto in the UFC at a much younger age...but I still think they will both do well.
Bones12x2 1 year ago
@Bones12x2 well said, i agree. also the thing is that there are fresh new talent in japan but the ufc don't hire those guys cause they don't bring money. they only hire Japanese fighters that have already been in battles and have some fame so they can make money. the problem with that is that most of those fighters are nearing or passed their prime...
