Shintaro Ishiwatari vs Kyoji Horiguchi Headlines Stacked Vale Tudo Japan Card This Weekend

The biggest fight in Asian MMA this month is taking place in the main event of Vale Tudo Japan (VTJ) on Saturday night when top Japanese bantamweights Shintaro Ishiwatari and Kyoji Horiguchi go head to head in Tokyo. Ishiwatari (15-4-4) is the current bantamweight King of Pancrase, while Horiguchi (10-1) is the reigning Shooto featherweight (132-pound) champion, a belt he won by submitting Hiromasa Ogikubo in March. Horiguchi comes from a Karate background and fights with his hands hanging low, but he is well rounded and aggressive with solid wrestling and submission skills. Ishiwatari is a southpaw with a dangerous left kick, but both love to let their hands go which should make for some entertaining exchanges. The card also features 38-year-old Caol Uno (27-16-5) who has gone 2-3 since his second stint in the UFC ended in 2010. He is campaigning at 145 pounds these days and will need to roll back the years and rediscover the sort of form which made him a two-time UFC title challenger if he is to overcome American Anthony Avila (10-1)
