During a recent interview at the Yokkao Training Center in Bangkok, Harrison shared his excitement about competing against one of the fighters he has looked up to throughout much of his own iconic career.
"I always wanted to fight Seksan because I think it’ll be a great fight," Harrison said. "Not only for me, obviously. He’s one of my heroes, he’s a legend of all."
Liam Harrison will be seeking his 91st career win and his first since his incredible come-from-behind TKO against Muangthai at ONE 156 in April 2022.

In Harrison's absence, Seksan has emerged as one of the most exciting fighters in the art of eight limbs, securing an incredible eight wins in 2023, including a pair of highlight-reel knockouts against Sean Clancy and Isaac Araya.
However, 'The Man Who Yields To No One' will look to bounce back after suffering his first loss inside the Circle, surrendering a unanimous decision to Japanese standout Yutar Asahi at ONE Friday Fights 58 in April.
