WATCH: Liam Harrison shows how to use an opponent’s strength for the perfect Muay Thai takedown
There's no question that Liam Harrison easily mixes hardcore ferocity with technical wit whenever he fights.
The multi-time Muay Thai and kickboxing world champion is one of the most cerebral strikers in history, and he'd often share his wisdom with anyone who has the slightest interest in the striking arts.
In his most recent Instagram instructional, Harrison showed his technique in landing a swift Muay Thai takedown without exerting too much force.
Liam Harrison said:
"One of my favorite ways to throw or takedown from inside the clinch. When you feel your opponent or your partner pushing the weight on you a little bit, all I'm gonna do with my left hand and my right is I'm gonna be in a position where I pull and push. As I pull and push, I'm just gonna push my hips in."
He added:
"Ideally, just so when I pull and push, I can then take him down."
Harrison has used that clever yet ferocious style to capture eight world titles and 90 wins across his decades-long career.
Despite nearing the end of his career, Harrison is still as powerful as ever and he'll bring that unbridled aggression with him when he takes on fellow legend Seksan at ONE 168: Denver.
The all-legends clash goes down on September 6 at Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado.
Liam Harrison shares why he's been adamant to face Seksan
Liam Harrison has been fighting since 1999 and faced some of Thailand's best-ever fighters.
'Hitman' traded limb and leather with Rodlek, Sagetdao, Anuwat, and the iconic Saenchai, but he's yet to face Seksan.
Nevertheless, the two hard-hitting brawlers will look to electrify Denver in September.
In an interview snippet he shared on Instagram, Harrison detailed why he's been clamoring for a fight against Seksan.
"One of my heroes for years. He's like one of the most exciting fighters ever, he's called Seksan. He's so exciting, he's so crazy, and I think me and him can really create something special for the fans. He's absolutely insane."
