Kyoji Horiguchi's next chance to climb back up the flyweight chart will come in Rotterdam. The young Japanese fighter has been booked to take on Irish veteran Neil Seery on May 8th. The UFC made the bout official recently.
Horiguchi (16-2, 5-1 UFC) rebounded from a last-second submission in a title fight with Demetrious Johnson at UFC 186 to pick up a unanimous decision victory over Chico Camus at UFC Japan in September.
Seery (16-11, 3-2 UFC) picked up first performance bonus with a second-round submission win over Jon Delos Reyes at a UFC event in Dublin last October.
