    True and theres nothing wrong with playing it smart Gonzaga was the 2004 Mundial Champ while Kongos ground game blows you do the math. Calling Kongoa Kick Boxing World Class may be a stretch god this guy is so overatted im always hearing about him and title shots then **** sure give him one and give Herring and Marrero shots to.

    Relax dude I never once said Kongo should be getting title shots. However his standup would murder ALOT of guys in the UFC. And I'm not even a Kongo fan but I call it how I see it. The guy has some s**t standing up and his GNP ain't looking bad these days either. I understand you though. I can't stand Lesnar, Aoki, and Gay-J Noons the same way.

    They need to make the Okami fight with Silva , before he retires.

    World class is a bit of a stretch for Kongo, he is living off CropCop even more than Gonzaga; Gonzaga has proven himself much more outside of that fight. Kongo looks good against guys who are lower tier, but even aherring got the better of him standing and on the ground; Kongo was the one initiating the takedowns.

    Kongo isn't living off Crocop more than Gonzaga:nonoGonzaga was stopped by Werdum and Werdum isn't exactly known for his striking. Gonzaga is still talked about as the guy that KO'D Crocop with that head kick because that's all he is really known for. Gonzaga fought Randy like a *****. What has Gonzaga done after the Crocop fight? Kongo has scored some good wins as of late.

    Werdum is a very good fighter, probably a top ten guy. If you take away the crocop fight from Kongo, you have a bunch of mediocre opponents and several losses to some of them, including a common opponent who Gonzaga cakewalked.

    No idea what "fought Randy like a *****" even means.

    He means that he was very hesitant after he got his nose broken from the impact of the slam.

    I don't know that I'd call him a ***** for it, but the fight was definitely taken out of Gonzaga after that slam.

    Very simple. When things got rough for him he got discouraged. He looked scared. He pretty much looked like he wanted out of there. So yes, Gonzaga fought like a *****. And I know Werdum is good, I'm not questioning that or debating it. I'm saying he's not a striker. Gonzaga was ko'd by someone that is not known for being a banger. So for someone to say Gonzaga can stand with Kongo is outrageous:patsch
