You just gotta love Goodman! Gave the fans another great fight against a game young opponent. The work ethics of this Aussie is admirable!

he ducked inoue to figth Chainoi Worawut. then he faked an injury to get out of the fight which forced inoue to scramble for late opponents. hes in line for a title shot again? eff him

I think you're being hard on him. He did not duck Inoue, he was injured, and the fight was rescheduled just a month after the first cancellation. I think that was the mistake, reschedulling too soon.

not at all. the guy chose to fight Chainoi Worawut instead of inoue. thats clearly ducking. maybe he got cut twice in a row, but im certainly not going to take the word of a guy who ducked the fight, im certainly not going to give him the benefit of the doubt, and im certainly not going to believe he got injured twice in a row even if its possible, its highly improbable. he wanted out of the fight and made sure he got out of it, 3 times now. maybe 2 were legit? dubious but 1 certainly was not in any way shape or form. he goes into the ring to call out inoue, then signs to figth Chainoi Worawut. what utter BS. it was all publicity to hype himself up. must be a local aussie thing because no one else in the world cares about him but im sure over there he thinks hes a big player lol

I think he's a relatively big player in Australia, but certainly not in the rest of the world. For the rest, i just don't know; Goodman has had great work and fight ethics so far, and he doesn't seem like the kind of guy who backs out of a challenge. He chose to fight Wrecked ball at a higher weight when he didn't need to and gave us a good performance. PS i'm not australian lol
