Kenny Florian Vs. Takanori Gomi Expected To Headline UFC Fight Night 21

A great match up in the UFC’s lightweight division between Kenny “KenFlo” Florian and “The Fireball Kid” Takanori Gomi is being targeted for UFC Fight Night 21. The fight is expected to serve as the main event for the card set to take place on March 31st from North Carolina. ESPN’s MMA Live, of which Kenny Florian serves as a co-host, tweeted the news earlier today.

The fight has been rumored for weeks, but the event at which it would be scheduled for has been undecided until now. KenFlo is on record as saying the match with Gomi should be on a Pay-per-view card. But it appears that the Zuffa brass thinks it would make for a good main event for the Fight Night card which is set to serve as a lead-in for the premiere of The Ultimate Fighter 11 with coaches Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz.
