unmotivated motivated 185lbs 145lbs penn is the man.
It was going to take a shitload to derail his minions, but it DID happen. When you talk so much ridiculous shit, and get totally embarrassed so many times over, it really has no choice but to crash. And it did.
The type of organized support BJ got was like nothing I've ever seen. It was basically a religion.

You'll see a few stragglers hanging around, but it's a fraction of what it was.
And BJ folded him up and threw him in the trash because BJ's a better fighter everywhere.
Pride Gomi > Bj Penn > Shooto Gomi coming off a loss fighting in a cage for the first time in Hawaii in BJ Penn's fighting organization
Dude that's just false. BJ always got more hate than love and never had the kind of rampant, rabid fans that Fedor or Wand/Shogun or some Japanese fighters had. When BJ vs GSP 2 happened 99% of sherdog was ecstatic to trash BJ for months. This whole "crazy BJ fan" thing is a myth invented by the BJ-hating majority.
Lol please. Compare their top wins and it's not even close. Gomi's best wins are what, Sakurai and Kawajiri? Ishida? His other wins are mediocre. Don't get me wrong, Gomi has by far been one of my favorite LWs and is easily in the top 5 LW GOATs, but in my eyes the bulk of wins in his Pride run can be comparable to that of Wandy. Match up Penn against those very same guys and it would be the same end result.
Gomi is the only fighter that is 0-1 against a contemporary great and still considered better.Pride Gomi > Bj Penn > Shooto Gomi coming off a loss fighting in a cage for the first time in Hawaii in BJ Penn's fighting organization

What I said still applies. At least someone doesn't say they will fight to death and give up
Prime Bj might be better than Aldo. But, Gomi > Bj Penn
