“He wouldn’t even look at me” - Liam Harrison claps at Jonathan Haggerty, tells double-champ to meet face-to-face
Liam Harrison and Jonathan Haggerty have had an on-and-off rivalry and things never seemed to settle down, until recently when both fighters were in Thailand.
Taking to social media, Harrison reacted to a previous report about how Haggerty would want to meet and tell him about a possible meeting inside the Circle.
Their feud has been simmering for some time now, and Harrison revealed on Instagram and Twitter (now known as X) that he and Haggerty were at the same place at the same time without any conversation happening.
Liam Harrison wrote on X:
"Literally saw him 10 times last week in Thailand and he wouldn't even look at me."
He then expounded on his tweet through Instagram Stories:
"Didn't say f*** all to my face last week in Thailand. But listen, I feel good and fresh again, I need some ring time first but this can be put back on the table with how I feel at the minute."
Harrison has long been considered one of the best, if not the best, British striker on the planet. Haggerty, however, seems to have taken distinction all to himself, at least in the recent past.
'The General' currently reigns as the ONE bantamweight Muay Thai and kickboxing world champion. He was also a former ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion during the early stages of his ONE Championship tenure.
A fight between these two British superstars could be a possibility in the near future, but a lot of moving parts have to land in the right places if Harrison and Haggerty are to meet on the biggest stage.
Liam Harrison and Jonathan Haggerty both set for high-profile matches in Denver
It seems Thailand was just a mere footnote in the ongoing beef between Jonathan Haggerty and Liam Harrison.
While they never found themselves talking to each other in Thailand, they could get another opportunity when they fly over the Atlantic this September.
Harrison and Haggerty are scheduled for high-profile matches at ONE 168: Denver on September 6 at Ball Arena in Colorado.
Haggerty will defend the ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title against Superlek Kiatmoo9, the ONE flyweight kickboxing world champion, in one of the card's featured fights.
Harrison, meanwhile, will face Thai legend Seksan in a catchweight Muay Thai match.
Tickets for ONE 168: Denver are available at Ticketmaster.
