Yoshiaki Yatsu
Goodridge finally bounced back against Yoshiaki Yatsu, another professional wrestling veteran making his debut, at "PRIDE 11". Despite Yatsu's Olympic amateur wrestling credentials, Goodridge easily avoided his takedowns, while landing regular leg kicks and one-two combos. The wrestler eventually took Gary down, but the latter escaped from his leglock attempt and caused a momentary pause after landing an illegal knee. After the restart, however, Goodridge swarmed him with uppercuts until the referee called a stop to the bout.
