PRIDE Bushido vol. 08 Preview: "King of the Distance – Who Can Go the Distance?" That was only about a year ago, and now six victories later- all by TKO and one submission lock - Takanori Gomi (19-2) is a man to be reckoned with in the welterweight category of world class MMA. When I met Gomi he was coming out of his only two defeats in MMA, which where quite devastating because he lost his Shooto belt to Joachim Hansen, and then got pummeled two months later by BJ Penn in a cage in Hawaii. Perhaps the reason Gomi was less known before, is because he belonged to Shooto, a long running MMA organization which is smaller than Pride or UFC. www.boutreviewusa.com /SpecialFeatures/27gomikawajiri.html   (1528 words)

PRIDE Bushido vol. 08 Preview: "King of the Distance – Who Can Go the Distance?" When I met Gomi he was coming out of his only two defeats in MMA, which where quite devastating because he lost his Shooto belt to Joachim Hansen, and then got pummeled two months later by BJ Penn in a cage in Hawaii. This fight lasted way longer than the others, but Gomi was truly tested by a great striker, who gambled for a KO all the way until he was finished in TKO fashion by the heavy welterweight pounder. Perhaps the reason Gomi was less known before, is because he belonged to Shooto, a long running MMA organization which is smaller than Pride or UFC. www.boutreviewusa.com /SpecialFeatures/27gomikawajiri.html   (1528 words)
