0-5 in last 5 fights- All Stoppages in the 1st- 9 Minutes. That's Right. Those 5 losses totaled 9 minutes. I expected much from GomI in the UfC. In 2005 he was amazing.
 
Almost 20 years fighting, and his style that more then a life time of damage and fighting age.
 
Easy, he's old, subpar competition in his prime, protected by his employer, PEDs (was normal/required in Pride) and now the game has exceeded his skills by light years
 
Was only good for like a year or two in a sloppy new division at the time and was lucky BJ Penn wasnt around to smash him again.

Of course 155 turned out to be a popular weight class because there are more men arouns that weight or 170 then say 205 or HW and once the division picked up steam Gomi fell pretty quickly.
 
I feel very bad. I became a Gomi fan watching old videos. Today i have the oportunity of watch him live.. And he disapoint me so bad.
