Jonathan Goulet (born July 13, 1979) is a retired French Canadian mixed martial artist. He has most recently fought as a welterweight for the Ultimate Fighting Championship, where he made his successful debut at Ultimate Fight Night 2, defeating Jay Hieron by technical knockout. He is known for his "knock out or be knocked out" attitude and for getting knocked out by Duane Ludwig in 6 seconds, the official fastest knockout in UFC history. Goulet holds notable wins over John Alessio, Jay Hieron, Shonie Carter, Jesse Bongfeldt, and Kuniyoshi Hironaka.
Mixed martial arts career
Goulet is undefeated in the Quebec-based organization TKO, holding an unblemished record of 9 wins, 0 losses within the company but with 2 straight TKO losses in the ufc.[1]
Taking a 13-5 MMA record to the UFC, Goulet was successful in his debut, earning a TKO victory over Jay Hieron. His second UFC fight, however, did not go his way. He was knocked out in 6.06 seconds by Duane Ludwig which is currently the quickest knockout. Goulet rebounded and came back to win a majority decision over The Ultimate Fighter 2 fan favourite, Luke Cummo, at Ultimate Fight Night 5. Goulet was then submitted due to strikes by Josh Koscheck at UFC Fight Night 6 and was submitted by Dustin Hazelett at UFC Fight Night 11. Goulet then put together back to back wins in the UFC, first submitting Paul Georgieff in December 2007, and then winning via TKO over Kuniyoshi Hironaka and UFC 83. Goulet fought at UFC: Fight For The Troops, taking on Mike Swick, where he lost via KO in the first round. Most recently, Goulet took on Marcus Davis at UFC 113 in Montreal, and lost in the second round via TKO. He was released from the organization after his loss to Davis along with Paul Daley and Kimbo Slice.[2]
Goulet earned his nickname, "The Road Warrior," after taking a fight on very short notice, traveling to the fight venue without his trainers or cornermen.[3] He is noted for his ever-changing hair colors and using his hair to advertise sponsors.[4]
Goulet recently fought Canadian prospect, Matt MacGrath at Ringside MMA 8: Invasion in Quebec on August 7, 2010. Goulet defeated MacGrath at 1:39 of the first round by TKO(punches).[5]
Goulet faced Chris Clements on November 13, 2010 in Montreal, Quebec, for the Ringside MMA welterweight championship. Goulet lost the fight via devastating knockout due to punches in the second round. After this fight, Goulet announced his retirement from MMA.[6]
Personal life
Goulet has a daughter.[7]
