jump kick - sonic rings works good.  also if you are in the corner you 
can continually jump-punch.  just jump straight up and punch on the way 
down and goro just stands there.  and no you can't leg grab him.

the leg-grab works good, also uppercut.  just block it then do it quick.

every character has combos against kano or raiden.  and no funky fatality 
tricks, other then throw then fatality.
