At 38 and now at the latter stage of his professional career, Liam Harrison is uncertain if he still wants to go on a world title run, much like what he did two years ago when he earned his shot from former ONE bantamweight Muay Thai king Nong-O Hama.
Harrison was asked about this during the ONE 168: Denver press conference ahead of his catchweight Muay Thai clash with fellow legend Seksan Or Kwanmuang at the Ball Arena in Colorado.
According to 'Hitman,' he is more comfortable at his current fighting weight of 140 pounds, as he said:
"I don't know. I fell quite comfortable down at this 140 weight to be fair. So I might just stick around here, but I'm open to see what offers I get after this."

Harrison also takes into account all the mileage and injuries he has experienced during over two decades of fighting at the highest level. But still, he reiterated that his line is always open for various offers from the promotion.
Liam Harrison admits that he was starstruck when he first met Bill Goldberg
During the same press conference, Harrison recalled his first encounter with professional wrestling legend Bill Goldberg and shared that he was in awe to be up close to one of his childhood heroes.
According to the Bad Company-affiliated athlete, that incredible moment was even more special since Goldberg handed him the trophy after his victory. The former ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title challenger stated:
"I actually met Bill about 10 years, no nine years ago when I fought in Malaipet, when I won that fight he got in the ring to present me with the trophy and he was a childhood hero of mine so I was a bit starstruck."
ONE 168: Denver will air live from the Ball Arena in U.S. primetime on Sept. 6. Tickets for the event are available on Ticketmaster.
