Reigning two-sport ONE world champion Jonathan Haggerty doesn’t see things going well for Liam Harrison should the ‘Hitman’ score a dream fight with Muay Thai superstar Seksan.
Harrison has been out of action since suffering a devastating knee injury in the opening round of his ONE world title tilt with Nong-O Hama at ONE on Prime Video 1.
After undergoing surgery, ‘Hitman’ is nearing 100 percent and is chomping at the bit to step back inside the Circle.
Asked who he would be interested in fighting in his long-awaited return, Harrison told the South China Morning Post that he had an interest in fighting Thai sensation Seksan, who currently holds an undefeated record of 8-0 under the ONE banner.

Offering his take on the potential matchup ahead of his own return to the ring at ONE Fight Night 19, Jonathan Haggerty suggested that the ‘Hitman’ might be biting off more than he can chew challenging ‘The Man Who Yields To No One.’
“If it's a fight he’s always wanted, if he feels like if it's his last fight, why not push towards that fight? I think they both deserve it, they've both done what they had to do,” Haggerty told SCMP MMA. “But yeah, I feel Seksan picks him apart if I’m honest, and melts him down.”
