I agree, if you don't know about Gomi dude is a force. At one time widely considered the best 155 in the world. Now his action slowed after the fall of Pride but if he is game dude is a hell of a fighter!

seen him fight Nick Diaz I think it was and I was impressed but Kenny is really going to look to make a statement and get back at Penn. I dont know if Gomi has fought anyone of this caliber for quite some time

I really like Ross Pearson. I think he could be one hell of a fighter in the lightweight div.

Gomi looked like shit. I was terribly disappointed. I don't know if he has dropped off that much or KFlo looked THAT good, which he did.

Big Country had a nice TKO, but title hunt big man? come on now...

Greatest moment of the night:

In TUF when the French guy was saying how he'd prove the French weren't soft...and then quit after the first round in the most "sand in vagina" way possible.


From what I read, Roy possibly/probably will be getting Junior De Los Santos next. A HUGE step up from tonight's opponent.

I keep thinking that Roy would get his ass beat by all of these fighters, but he proves me wrong every time. De Los Santos is a beast though, but this could be a very intriguing match up.

Oh, I'm really looking forward to that match. De Los Santos is a pure-ass murder machine, but Nelson's just a freak of nature. No one who looks like him should be that skilled of a fighter. You step in the ring with him and you're thinking, "Fat tomato-can who's one more stepping stone..." and then wind up watching his hand get raised while being too woozy to really figure out what happened.

yes Nelson looked good. Kenny looked good to but Gomi looks like an OLD fighter. I saw many of his pride fights. He was a beast at one time.

I agree not the Gomi of old that is for sure! Florian looked smooth and sharp landing his jabs at will! Nelson keeps impressing me as well but I agree no where near title contention! Santos/Nelson in very interesting and I favor De Los Santos but man it's hard not to root for big country!!

Looking forward to this season of TUF!! I was dying when the French dude quit!

I assume when you guys say "De Los Santos", you mean Junior dos Santos?

That would be an interesting fight and Nelson could mess up the heavyweight division a bit with a win if they fight!

The Frenchie quit because his WRIST HURT!

Come on man, just tell it like it is, your vajayjay hurt.

I'm excited for this season of tough, saw a LOT of judo type throws last night, might have some real talent this season unlike the last few seasons that pretty much sucked.

KenFlo looked really good again last night. I have no doubt he's the #2 LW in the world, unfortunately for him BJP is just that much better.

I love Edgar, but he will get demolished by BJP, and I don't think Edgar could even really hang with Florian.

Big Country is good, especially for a fat guy but Junior dos Santos is on a whole different level. dos Santos would kill Big Country!

As much as I dislike Big Country, if he can get dos Santos to the ground, BC beats him on the ground pretty easy. However, in the stand up dos Santos should beat BC senseless.

I think if Big Country does fight JDS... He will definitley try to take it to the ground. I don't think Dos Santos can stop his takedown so we will see what kind of a ground game JDS has. I think BC will end it on the ground or JDS gets the KO on the feet.
