Liam Harrison recalls beating a top Japanese fighter as a teenager

Liam Harrison first began training Muay Thai at the age of 13. He didn't take long to start fighting top-level opponents. He recently recalled defeating a high-ranked Japanese fighter as a teenager on Instagram:

“The promoter called Richard and said, ‘Look, we’ve got a fight in Japan in four weeks against the Japanese number one. Does Liam wanna do it?’ He said, the Japanese promoters have asked to send a strong fighter who might have a chance of knocking him out. Round one and two were close, but I think he was just edging just because of his experience, and round three, I just went like, 'I’m f*cking, I’m gonna go crazy just trying to knock him out…'”

The Bad Company affiliate added:

“I went out and dropped him, and I think with ten seconds left in that round, I knocked him out. I remember all the Japanese stood up and clapping, and I thought there is no drug like this on earth, and I was addicted to it. I thought this is what I want to do with my life."

After joining ONE Championship, Harrison scored back-to-back first-round knockout victories over Mohammed Bin Mahmoud and Muangthai PK Saenchai. Unfortunately, he came up short in his world title bid against the dominant champ, Nong-O.
