Multi-time Muay Thai world champion Liam Harrison admits he'd have been bitterly disappointed if his all-legend clash against Seksan Or Kwanmuang fell through.

The Bad Company superstar has only had one name on his mind since steering past the injury nightmare that put him out of action over the past 24 months. Given that he's probably reaching the swan song moment of his illustrious career and how he views 'The Man Who Yields To No One' as a fellow icon, it's easy to understand why.

Liam Harrison had this to say during a recent catch-up session with the South China Morning Post:

"[On wanting to face Seksan] Like I said, I'm towards the back end of my career now, and I'm pretty sure he's coming to the back end of his as well. He's fought some crazy wars, crazy fights, over the years, and if I miss him off the list, I'd have been a little bit upset."

None of that matters now, as his dream of squaring off against the Thai striking great will come to fruition at ONE 168: Denver in a week.

The two Muay Mats, who only have one gear in their arsenal — that is to deliver an all-out brawl loaded with action — should live up to the hype of this 140-pound catchweight contest inside Ball Arena on September 6.

Active Amazon Prime Video subscribers in the United States and Canada can catch the entire card live in U.S. primetime for free. Meanwhile, tickets are available on Ticketmaster.

Liam Harrison to keep a close tab on Seksan's elbows in Denver tie

Every inch of Seksan's world-class 'Art of Eight Limbs' arsenal has been on show through his successful tenure in the world's largest martial arts organization.

While Liam Harrison is well aware of that, he believes there's one standout trait that he'd need to have his eyes locked on when they trade leather at ONE 168: Denver.

He told ONE Championship previously:

"He has horrible (good) elbows. The angles he throws them and he just swings in with them. If I'm not careful and I just start swinging all over trying to get rid of him, that's when he ends up putting people out."
