TBH, he wasn't before he got gutted protecting Elisa, and the upgrade to bro-ness is not even because it was *Elisa* he was protecting specifically. Prior to that, Kang was this guy Goliath felt more comfortable hanging around than he did hanging around most of the mostly-human crew. They share a profession (war) and are both the only representatives of their (fairly similar) species on board, so there was always a certain sense of solidarity there.
Then Kang went and got gutted protecting a woman he'd met five minutes ago, on the principle that this woman was a friend of a friend, and now Goliath will lay down his life for the guy if he has to. He probably would have before just on principle, but now he will do it because they are BROS.
And this won't be out of obligation, or specifically because it was Elisa Kang risked his life for. It's the principle of the thing, that Kang is the sort of person who will defend even the friends of his friends just because that's what they are. Goliath is sincerely grateful that he knows at least one person whose honor he can genuinely count on. For someone who has been betrayed so many times, and who has learned the hard way not to assume that everybody's out to take care of each other instead of screw them over, this is extremely meaningful, and Kang is one of the few crew members he knows well enough to give his genuine respect and loyalty.
