Tony Hervey Talks About His Fight Against Takanori Gomi:

"At the (pre-fight) press conference he didn’t show much respect, and I guess he expected me to be a pushover. But after (the fight) he gave me more respect and it showed that I could keep up with someone of his caliber. It made me feel better and that I’ve improved a lot."

"I’m kind of displeased with the end result with the decision, but for him to give me respect and say that he wants to train with me somewhere down the road; it’s an honor to hear that."

"I have the King of the Cage fight (upcoming) and I want to continue to finish the rest of my contract with them and hopefully move on to an overseas organization and try to capture a belt over there."

I honestly think

that Gomi’s only chance of real career success anymore is a drop to 145. He’s just too small for LW, unless he beefs up considerably. I could see Gomi running train on shit @ featherweight, though
