It's a fight that a lot of people wanted to see in the LW GP 7 years ago (Yves-Gomi, I mean), both of them have looked pretty good in their recent fights, Gomi being on a two fight winning streak, looking to make it three, Yves having just recently KO'd Jeremy Stephens (something top contenders Anthony Pettis and Donald Cerrone haven't been able to do), despite losing to Tony "Where's your kid at!?" Ferguson, and Diego's one of the most consistently exciting guys in MMA that's finally making his return to LW, which has been assumed to be his more natural weight class.
I'd like to see Yves-Gomi more, but Yves-Diego would be just as good a fight (though I'd fear for the Thugjutsu master more in that matchup).
