"True martial arts" - Fans can't get enough of the dramatic all-legends spectacle between Seksan and Liam Harrison in Denver
Last Sept. 8, a legend versus legend showdown was witnessed by fans during the co-main event of the ONE 168: Denver card inside the Ball Arena in Colorado, as Seksan Or Kwanmuang and Liam Harrison figured in a catchweight Muay Thai battle.
Throughout the build-up and after the matchup, both fighters have shown massive respect to each other with several gestures acknowledging their opponents.
The world's largest martial arts organization recently looked back on these moments by posting it on their Instagram account with the caption:
"Kind words, deadly actions 😎 We throw it back when Seksan and Liam Harrison brought the fire in their toe-to-toe battle! @seksan_or_kwanmuang999"
In the six-slide post, ONE Championship featured the respect of 'The Hitman' and 'The Man Who Yields To No One' either through positive exchanges on social media or through actions.
Furthermore, they added the highlights of the match. This made fans hyped and they tipped their hats off for the two martial arts icons, as users @aj_scraps, @notorious_lukic, @thatboychino600, @artstudiopopov, and @jackwhitehousemma sent their positive messages through their comments:
"True martial arts is all respect. God bless 🙏🏻😇"
"Fu*kin hell Liam just doesnt give up 👏"
"Very nice but also very dangerous 🔥😂"
"Fight of the year!"
"The highlight still have me cheering "come on Harrison" what a fight!"
