"I'm going to fight the Liam Harrison style" - Liam Harrison promises usual fan-friendly flair in comeback fight
As a fighter who barely takes his foot off the gas, multi-time Muay Thai world champion Liam Harrison vows to let all hell break loose when he takes to the global stage of ONE Championship next.
After overcoming the tougher part of his recovery, the Leeds slugger believes everything is in tune for him to return in typical fashion. 'Hitman' is penciled to face fellow icon of the sport, Seksan Or Kwanmuang, in a legend vs. legend showdown that will be part of the star-studded ONE 168: Denver card inside the Ball Arena on September 6.
In an interview with Yokkao recently, Liam Harrison refused to give up too much of his game plan against 'The Man Who Yields To No One.' Instead, he promises only fireworks come fight night.
The 38-year-old said:
"I don't want to give anything away, but I'm just going to get in there, and I'm going to fight the Liam Harrison style."
That style he talks about has been a permanent fixture across all his appearances under the ONE banner.
Though the high-risk, high-reward aggression has seen him slump to a couple of losses, it also took him to a pair of stunning knockout victories against Muangthai PK Saenchai and Mohammed Bin Mahmoud.

The British sporting hero, in an interview with Sky Sports, noted:
"My body is starting to feel like it did a few years before the injury. I feel strong, fast, and sharp."
