Liam Harrison says its crucial for UK’s best to get the hang of fighting in Thailand: “Get the experience”

Liam Harrison encourages aspiring UK fighters to get as much experience fighting in Thailand as possible. In recent years, fighters hailing from the United Kingdom have invaded ONE Championship, putting England and Scotland on the Muay Thai map.

That includes Harrison, who has emerged as a fan favorite because of his fast and furious fighting style.

During a recent Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything), 'The Hitman' was asked by a fan whether or not it's important for fighters from the UK to train in Thailand.

Harrison responded:

"It is important to go out to Thailand to get the experience of it, and fight at the stadiums out there."

Check out the fan question and Liam Harrison's response below:

While Harrison calls Bad Company Gym in Leeds, England, his home, he has regularly trained in Thailand, frequenting Jitti Gym and Yokkao, both in Bangkok.

Currently, Harrison is gearing up for his highly anticipated return to the Circle when ONE Championship heads back to the United States this summer.
