International flyweights will convene in Rotterdam for UFC Fight Night 87, as Neil Seery battles Kyoji Horiguchi.

Set for May 8 from the Ahoy Rotterdam in the Netherlands, the card features a main event between Alistair Overeem and Andrei Arlovski, and is slated to air on FOX Sports 1.

Seery (16-11) has picked up wins in three of his last four fights, putting the Ireland fighter on a collision course with a top contender such as Horiguchi (16-2).

Following a loss last year to UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson, the Japanese fighter rebounded with a decision over Chico Camus, improving to 10-1 over his last 11 fights – including a 5-1 record with the UFC.
