    Exclamation "Kid" versus "The Fireball Kid"

    I'm surprised no on here imagined this matchup.
    Takanori "The Fireball Kid" Gomi - The current pride champion.
    versus
    Norifumi "Kid" Yamamoto - The current K-1 Hero's champion.

    Both are in the same weight class (Gomi has a few pounds on Yamamoto), and both possess an excellent striking and submission game. Who would come out on top and why?

    My money is again on Yamamoto.

    I picked Gomi, but I think this could go either way. They are pretty much the two best lightweights around right now, and they've both had excellen years. This is a match-up I would really like so see (preferrably in Pride Bushido, since K-1 is getting increasingly hard to get here).

He will be killed, all right, but he can't know whether he is killed because of the knowledge which he has got or because of the knowledge which he hasn't got and which if he had it, would save him."

    I'd go with gomi, I think it'd be a great match, but see Gomi winning wiht his striking abilities, although i give the KO power and wreslting to kid. I wouldn't rate kid second either I'd put him behind Azeredo, Mach, Pulver, Hansen, and maybe yves edwards and josh thompsen

    Gomi is on fire!

    I would be willing to bet someone elses money without a second thought.
