Can Liam Harrison take down the legend Seksan at ONE 168? What's your take?

After firmly establishing himself as a Muay Thai legend in his homeland, Seksan Or Kwanmuang will look to add to his legacy by taking on a global striking superstar in his upcoming bout.

The Thai striker is set to battle British Muay Thai veteran Liam “Hitman” Harrison live on U.S. primetime when ONE Championship returns to the United States for ONE 168: Denver on Friday, September 6, and their highly anticipated meeting is hyped to be one of the fights of the night inside Denver, Colorado’s Ball Arena.

Seksan went undefeated in his first eight promotional outings, which further cemented him as someone “Hitman” wanted to fight before calling time on his fabled career. Speaking with ONE, “The Man Who Yields To No One” said he’s delighted by the respect Harrison has shown him in recent interviews.

“I’m glad he called me out. He’s a legend. I follow him, too. He’s a heavy hitter. I’m glad he said he wanted to fight a legend from Thailand. I am flattered that he calls me a hero,” he said.

Harrison is a three-time Muay Thai World Champion who has over 100 fights to his name, making him one of the most decorated fighters to ever come out of the United Kingdom.

Seksan seeks to exploit Harrison’s vulnerabilities

Now back to full health, Harrison will be looking to take out a fighter he holds great admiration for and add another huge victory to his already impressive resume.

“Hitman” may have a laundry list of accolades, but Seksan is in no way intimidated. He has been studying his upcoming foe’s style and believes he’ll hold certain advantages when they collide at ONE 168. “Liam’s strengths are his powerful punches and kicks. His style is similar to a traditional Muay Thai fighter. His punches are very dangerous,” Seksan said.

He further added, “His weakness is that sometimes he can’t absorb a very strong attack. He will wobble when he gets hit too much.I think my physical condition is a little better than his because I am three years younger than him. But it is a very small advantage.”

With both men known for their all-action style and penchant for chasing a knockout win, their match is likely to end before the final bell in Denver next week.
