"Of course I'm happy, because it's my job. That's why I accepted this fight,"
"Yeah. Two days ago, yeah. They offered me, but I answered to them, if I win the fight, I can do it,"
"I think [Taira could win the belt first], but I don't give a sh*t. Anyway, I will get the belt,"
"First, second, it doesn't matter. I will get it."
Kyoji Horiguchi returned to the UFC late last year and will fight at UFC Vegas 113. He stated that his dream is in the cage and is targeting the UFC flyweight title. Horiguchi accepted the upcoming fight promptly because fighting is his job and to remain active. The flyweight division has seen recent disruption from Alexandre Pantoja's injury and a resulting belt change, and other card adjustments have continued lineup shifts. Horiguchi agreed to consider a title opportunity only if he defeats Amir Albazi first. He expressed firm confidence that he will win the belt regardless of who secures it before him and noted the rising success of Japanese fighters such as Rinya Nakamura.
