Dan Hornbuckle is so confident in himself.  I think you can tell that just by the fact that he finishes more than 90% of his fights, but it really shows in this interview.  I think he's gonna kick some ass in this tournament.  He hit a road block in Ben Askren, but so has everyone else.  I've seen a couple of Dan's fights and they've definitely got me looking forward to this next one.  I'd like to see Dan take this tournament to get the rematch with Ben Askren.

Good interview.

I'm more interested in seeing Hornbuckle meet Jay Hieron at some point during the tournament. Style-wise I think that would be a great fight, though right now I'd have to lean toward a Hieron decision. Also very interested to see how Rick Hawn and Chris Lozano fare when they step up against this level of competition. Both of them are very legitimate WW prospects IMO.

I saw him submit Tyler Stinson live at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut last year. That was pretty cool.
