After watching Horiguchi fight at the most recent UFC in Saitama, I became a fan. His title shot is very slightly premature but I really like his chances of upsetting Mini Mouse. His training partner, Kid Yamamoto has already faced Demetrious, though it was a dominant win for Mini Mouse, maybe Kid can offer Horiguchi a good gameplan for him from his loss. He will definitely need to be on his "A" game for sure and fight a flawless fight. Really pulling for this kid to take that belt.

A comparison of this fight is similar to Pacman/Mayweather. Horiguchi hits really hard and is aggressive to attack. He covers a lot of space really well with his movements and black belt Karate background. I'm not worried about Mini Mouse knocking him out. The real threat is him being submitted. I doubt Mini Mouse will want to keep this fight standing. Hopefully Horiguchi has worked on his TDD.
