The Read
Style, strengths, and defining traits.
Goff is a switch-stance welterweight built on knockout power: seven of his nine professional wins have come by KO or TKO, with four finishes inside the first round and three more in the second. Before reaching the UFC he held both the Cage Titans and CES welterweight titles, plus the CES middleweight title, on the New England regional circuit.
He won his Octagon debut by first-round TKO over Yusaku Kinoshita in August 2023, but has now lost three straight after Ty Miller stopped him with strikes 15 seconds into round three. The result followed decision and submission losses to Trey Waters and Ramiz Brahimaj.
