Will Seksan's relentless style overpower Harrison's experience in their much-anticipated showdown at ONE 168 Denver?

One of the most anticipated fights on ONE Championship’s blockbuster return to U.S. soil will see beloved fan-favorites Sekasn ‘The Man Who Yields To No One’ Or Kwanmuang and Liam ‘Hitman’ Harrison throw down in an explosive catchweight Muay Thai tilt.

Set to air live in North American primetime from Ball Arena on September 6 at ONE 168: Denver, that matchup pits arguably the planet’s top two most entertaining strikers against each other in what is expected to be a striking masterclass.

With neither man ever knowing what it’s like to be in a boring fight, it’s no surprise that Seksan is predicting an unforgettable war on Friday night. According to the Thai, fans can expect a barnburner – for as long as it lasts – when he shares the Circle with Harrison.

“Both me and him have the ability to knock each other out because we both have the same style. So, I have a strong belief it won’t go the distance. But if we fight until the last bell, it’s going to be a fierce three rounds!” Seskan asserted.

A former four-time Muay Thai World Champion with nearly 300 professional fights to his name, Seksan has enjoyed an incredible career resurgence. In 2023, the 35-year-old used his fearless, brawling approach to combat to rack up eight straight wins in the world’s largest martial organization, cementing himself as both an electrifying entertainer and a legitimate elite Muay Thai fighter. And his next fight with Harrison is not only an exciting matchup, but a consequential one for both men.

But in his most recent outing, in April at ONE Friday Fights 58, ‘The Man Who Yields To No One’ suffered a hard-fought decision loss to Yutaro Asahi to bring an end to his winning streak.

Seksan is now hungry to bounce back to the win column at ONE 168 and is more motivated than ever to prove he belongs among the best of the best.

“Winning this fight is very important to me because I think a lot of fans think I’m no match for him. [They think] I’m going to get knocked out. If I can beat [Harrison], then I’ll take another step [forward] in ONE.” Seskan added.

On the other hand, Harrison, who is coming back after a two-year lay-off is well aware of the danger Seskan poses and is fighting to remind the fans he still has what it takes to compete at the highest level. This is why their September 6 bout is must-see TV for all fans of the sport. Who do you think will emerge victorious in their ONE 168 bout?
