British Muay Thai icon Liam Harrison believes Scottish standout Nico Carrillo should be next in line for a world title shot following Jonathan Haggerty's next showdown with Superlek Kiatmoo9.
This week, 'Hitman' answered all sorts of fan questions regarding the future status of the stacked bantamweight Muay Thai roster.
Condensed into one long list on Instagram, Harrison pitched Nico Carrillo as the next guy to fight Jonathan Haggerty after he's done defending the ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title at ONE 168 at Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado on Septembet 6.
Writing out his wish list in full text, Harrison said:
"Should [Haggerty] fight Nico who's in his prime? Yes, after Superlek."
Nico 'King of the North' Carrillo certainly deserves to fight for a Muay Thai world title by the end of this year.
The 25-year-old surging star has had three amazing matchups on his rise to contention, defeating the likes of Furkan Karabag and Muangthai PK Saenchai by way of stoppages.
But it's his second-round TKO victory over former world titleholder Nong-O Hama, that has really pegged him as a worthy challenger for Haggerty and his crown.
After 'The General' ends his rivalry with Superlek in a rematch at ONE 168, there's no doubt that a fight with Carrillo will be another classic for years to come.
