Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Harrison talked about this epic super-fight, and what he thinks of the action that’s about to go down. Harrison also shares his pick as to who could win this battle.
‘Hitman’ said:
“The rhythm, the scoring, it’s all a bit different. So, under kickboxing rules, I’m picking Meksen. Under Muay Thai rules, I’d go with Phetjeeja.”
Needless to say, both fans and Harrison himself expect this showdown to be nothing short of fireworks, given the similar come-forward style of both fighters.
Anissa Meksen and Phetjeeja do battle for the chance to unify the atomweight kickboxing throne
There’s only one outcome that both Anissa Meksen and Phetjeeja want when it’s all said and done – and that’s the chance to unify the ONE women’s atomweight kickboxing world title with reigning divisional queen Janet ‘JT’ Todd.
Whoever wins this upcoming interim title tilt will get the opportunity to book a unification showdown with Todd sometime in 2024, which means a lot is riding on this one fight.
