Could Aoki beat Gomi?

Aoki has always been a smaller WW at 167 yet he still has beaten some of the best at that weight, now that he's fighting at LW (160 in pride) he won't be out muscled as much, he says he wants to be the pride LW champ so a fight with Gomi could be in the future, we all know subs are Gomi's weakness and Aoki's got some slick subs.

Anyone can beat anyone on any given night!

Aoki would have a very good chance against Gomi

Aoki can beat anybody in the world at LW.

Would he beat Gomi? It's hard to say. I'd probably pick Gomi to edge out a close one.
