Liam Harrison knows that Denver's altitude would be detrimental to anyone who is not prepared. He is also somewhat worried that Superlek Kiatmoo9's late arrival will somehow affect his fellow superstars ahead of their fights there.

This weekend, on September 6, ONE will return to the Centennial State inside its Ball Arena for the massive ONE 168: Denver card, where Harrison will clash with Seksan Or Kwanmuang.

Meanwhile, Superlek will challenge the two-sport ONE world champion Jonathan Haggerty for his bantamweight Muay Thai belt. 'Hitman' shared his worries with South China Morning Post in a recent interview.

Harrison said:

"Mate, I've been trying to tell Superlek the altitude in Denver is rough. So me and him were going to meet in Canada, we're going to train together at Adrian's Muay Thai Academy Gym, but then there were some visa issues for the both of us."

He explained:

"So, it took Superlek a couple of weeks, and it took me a couple of weeks. So we couldn't get to Canada."

But as the fight night nears, both Harrison and Superlek are currently in Denver to join the fight week events before their respective epic fights.

Liam Harrison thinks he has a few years left in the game

Although British legend Liam Harrison is nearing the end of the rope in his legendary career, the striking superstar still won't call it quits.

The 38-year-old 'Hitman' even thinks that he still have some years left, as he told Sky Sports previously:

"There's life in the old dog! I still got a few more years left in me."

And with that, Liam Harrison will gun for a victory over Seksan Or Kwanmuang when they both clash inside the Ball Arena this weekend at ONE 168: Denver.

North American fans with an active Amazon Prime Video subscription can catch the entire card live and free U.S. primetime this Friday, Sept. 6.

Meanwhile, tickets to experience the event live in person can be purchased via Ticketmaster.
