British Muay Thai legend Liam Harrison is “looking to add a few more KOs” before calling it a career
Liam Harrison may be at the tail end of his storied career, but he's not done sending people to the shadow realm. The British Muay Thai legend has been adamant that his time at the top of the sport is nearing its end, but he won't be retiring quietly.
Taking to Instagram, Harrison said he wants to end his career with a bang and add more victories to his already astounding 90-win professional record.
Harrison wrote in his post:
"Ain't anyone from the UK who can send you for an early bath with one shot like I can. Done it consistently for over 20 years and looking forward to adding a few more KOs to the list before I retire 💣💣💣💣 #muaythai #knockout #hitman"
Harrison is arguably the best kickboxer and Muay Thai fighter from the United Kingdom, and his collection of eight world titles could attest to that argument.
He's also knocked out some of the sport's best fighters, including Muangthai PK Saenchai, Anuwat, Jaroensap, Mehdi Zatout, and Tetsuya Yamato.
Harrison even had memorable duels against the legendary Saenchai in his decades-long career.
'Hitman' now has a chance to add another legend to his list when he faces Thai superstar Seksan in a 140-pound catchweight Muay Thai bout at ONE 168: Denver.
The all-legends clash between Harrison and Seksan goes down on September 6 at Ball Arena in Denver.
Tickets for ONE 168 are available at Ticketmaster.

Liam Harrison has been calling for a fight against Seksan for months now, and he couldn't have gotten a better card than ONE 168. The two "old men of Muay Thai" are ready to trade limb and leather in Denver, and Harrison is beyond excited about the fight.
In an interview with The FullerWatt podcast, Harrison said:
"Yeah, this is definitely one of my biggest matches because of who he is. He's also one of the most entertaining and famous Thai fighters from the last 15 years. He's a legend, and like I said, he's one of the only ones missing off my list."
