Last night at UFC 108, UFC announced the signing of Takanori Gomi (31-5), once considered to be the best lightweight in the world. This is a huge signing for UFC, especially considering that BJ Penn has been running through all lightweight fighters with ease. With Gomi in the mix, this should prove to be very interesting. Rumours are already spreading that he may fight Kenny Florian in his Octogon debut. This would be a perfect test to see if he's at the level to be a threat to BJ Penn. He and Penn have fought before where Penn won by rear naked choke. We'll see if a rematch is on the horizon.
