Is Prime Gomi a Bigger Puncher Than Conor?

I'm just curious what Sherdog thinks.

Best KO artist in LW history.

Probably. He floored Nick Diaz. Conor is more technical though.

 

[TIMELESS TRUTH]

No way.

This thread is stupid. Look what Gomi was able to do versus Nate and then compare it to Conor...

Gomi barely even touched Nate.

 

[I WILL CUT YOU]

Way bigger. It's not even a question.

 

[Pastafarian2]

Gomi dropped the bigger Diaz and rocked him several times.

Conor couldn't even stagger baby Diaz hitting him with everything he's got. not a single moment of rocking him. let alone getting dropped.

 

[GrAtI]

Yeah

 

[OliverAtom]

No way.

TS clearly said prime Gomi.

 

[OverhandLoop]

Prime Gomi is a bigger puncher than pretty much everyone, so yes. That guy threw grenades from the hips.

 

[Lemmy]

at some point Gomi was the number 1 ranked fighter at LW.
Enough said.

 

[HHJ]

TS clearly said prime Gomi.

So Gomi lost his punching power later in his career?

 

[Pastafarian2]

No way.

way out of his prime. did Gomi get to land his entire arsenal on Nate like Conor did?

Nope. he was too slow by then.

 

[Kick Strickland]

Yes. Yes Gomi was.

 

[OliverAtom]

So Gomi lost his punching power later in his career?

Even if he did not lose his punching power he is a lesser fighter past his prime because of wheich he didn't land a single power punch on Nate. Simple.

Conor couldn't even stagger baby Diaz hitting him with everything he's got. not a single moment of rocking him. let alone getting dropped.

You gotta realize though, the version of Nate that Conor fought is probably better than the version of Nick that Gomi fought. Nate is like 30 now, right? How old was Nick when he fought Gomi? Like mid-20's?



That being said, I think Gomi was a harder puncher than Conor.

 

[HHJ]

Even if he did not lose his punching power he is a lesser fighter past his prime because of wheich he didn't land a single power punch on Nate. Simple.

But thats not the point of the thread.

 

[shoshaf]

I'm just curious what Sherdog thinks.

Funny, I was just thinking about this the other day. I completely agree with you, Gomi was the bigger puncher in his prime.

 

[Sonny Qc]

Idk. Conor left hand is devastating!.

But Prime Gomi win Vs Conor anyway

 

[OliverAtom]

But thats not the point of the thread.

That is exactly the point of the thread. TS is asking who is the bigger puncher which means who hits harder. Not who is the better striker or boxer or Muay Thai kickboxer or who has better technique.
