I am now a professional fighter, said Gomi through interpreter Ryo Ishibashi. and happy that so many people watch this sport now. In order to be respected continuously, I would like to prove what I can do in the UFC. I’m happy that my American fans are anticipating my debut in the Octagon. My fans are my motivational factor, and I want to display my exciting fighting style to them.
Kenny is good at using the cage, and well-versed in both striking and grappling. He’s a complete fighter, so it’s hard to find holes in his game. It’ll be a war, but I’m going to use all the weapons that I have against him.
I don’t have a cage in my gym, but I understand that the cage can either be used for me or be used against me. I’ll try not to think about the cage too much as I fight in it.
If there is a chance I want to challenge him (Champion BJ Penn), but my first fight is the most important.”
I would hope that there will be fights in the future better than my 2005 fight*. Just watch me create a ruckus in the UFC.
