Fifth-ranked bantamweight Muay Thai contender Liam Harrison promises to bring back the 'Hitman' of old at ONE 167.
After nearly two years on the sidelines, the British striking icon will once again do what he does best. Harrison will figure in a three-round slugfest with Katsuki Kitano on June 7 at Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand.
Truth be told, the odds are against the 38-year-old from Leeds, England. He's entering the twilight of his career and is coming off a serious knee injury.

Plus, he'll take on a younger Japanese stud, who displayed a well-rounded arsenal in his ONE debut last year,
Then again, Harrison practically built off his career by proving people wrong. The Bad Company representative told ONE Championship:
"I'm looking forward to getting in there and turning the clocks back, doing what I used to do a couple of years ago, and just having wild fights."
Liam Harrison, of course, is the harbinger of pure violence each time he fights. Known for relentlessly moving forward and instigating mayhem, the English slugger vows not to stray away from his identity, even at this stage of his career.
Prime Video subscribers in North America can witness Harrison's return free of charge, live in US Primetime.
Liam Harrison says he'll worry about Seksan after beating Katsuki Kitano
Liam Harrison will be a busy man, as he's also booked for the promotion's return to the United States at ONE 168: Denver on September 6. 'Hitman' will finally lock horns with fellow legend Seksan at Ball Arena.
While Seksan is the fighter he's been asking for so long, Harrison says he won't disrespect Kitano by looking past him. The fighting Brit said in the same ONE interview:
"I'm fully focused on Kitano, and I'm not even thinking about Seksan. I'm gonna fully focus on that fight, and then I'll fully focus on Seksan. And I just want to enjoy the fights, then I'll see where I'm at. I'll make decisions as and when I go along."
