Long competing in Muay Thai, British striker Liam Harrison has seen many great fighters he has grown to admire. One of them is veteran Thai warrior Seksan Or Kwanmuang.
Speaking to Sky Sports in an interview, the ‘Hitman’ said he is highly impressed with the fighting skills of ‘The Man Who Yields To No One'. Given the opportunity, he wants to battle the Thai legend.
The 38-year-old Bad Company standout said:
“He's so exciting. He's so crazy and I think me and him can really create something special for the fans if you make matches together because I don't know if anyone has seen Seksan, but he's absolutely insane.
