38-year-old Liam Harrison makes a return to the cage after a gap of two years. ‘Hitman’ has been a bit unfortunate in recent times and faced a lot of problems with injury. He suffered a devastating knee injury during his fight with Nong-O Hama at ONE Prime 1. The ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Title was on the line, but the 38-year-old couldn’t capitalize on the night.

After several setbacks on his road to recovery, it appears Harrison is now fully fit and ready to battle once again. He recently took his Instagram account to share one of his training sessions with the fans. ‘Hitman’ looked in sublime shape while working with his coach,  Darrell Kendall. He also shared a caption that read, “Setting up the liver shot with @darrellkendall_,”
