Former ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title challenger and British striking veteran ‘Hitman’ Liam Harrison says his highly anticipated return to action will captivate fans and bring more eyes to witness ‘the art of eight limbs’ in all its glory.
Harrison is coming off a lengthy recovery and rehabilitation process after injuring his knee in 2022 in a short-lived battle with legendary Thai fighter Nong-O Hama. Now fully healed and ready to throw down, Harrison can’t wait to climb back into the ONE Championship ring to do what he does best.
But his next fight won’t be easy.
Harrison is set to face former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion ‘Hands of Stone’ John Lineker in a Muay Thai contest. The Brazilian is making his ONE Championship Muay Thai debut.
