He did, however, state that Katsuki will need to watch out for one of the most dangerous weapons that 'The Hitman' brings to the table:

"I'm not too familiar with Katsuki, but knowing Liam Harrison, I feel like he'd kick his legs a lot. He won't stop doing that. And Katsuki needs to be ready all the time when Liam's gonna came at him with those kicks."
