Liam Harrison is hopeful that before he retires, he will get to compete under the ONE Championship banner on his home shores.

The promotion now has several names from the UK that would make a debut show, potentially in London, a big deal for ONE and the fighters involved.

Harrison knows that he only has a limited amount of time left in this sport and he hopes that ONE's UK debut will take place before he hangs up the gloves for good.

'The Hitman' said on the ONE on SK podcast that he is running out of time to make it happen but if it comes around soon, he wouldn't miss it for the world:

"If that comes around soon, I'll be all over that sh*t. Don't get me wrong. But the longer that waits, the more I'm crumbling into dust, you know what I mean? So yeah, if that comes up within the next year, I'd love to be on that I think. Maybe that could be my swansong or farewell fight. Cause that'll be amazing, to do that in front of the UK crowd."

Liam Harrison targets his curtain call

Liam Harrison said that at a ONE Championship event in the UK could be the final fight of his career.

Whilst it would be an incredible moment to watch him bow out in front of his home fans and supporters, the Brit is well aware that things don't always work out how you want them to in this career.

The first step towards his last dance comes at ONE 167 on June 7 when he finally returns from his nearly two-year layoff due to his injuries.

Beating Katsuki Kitano will prove to 'The Hitman' that he's still got it but until his hand gets raised, there is no promise of what is next.

ONE 167 will air live from the Impact Arena in Bangkok on June 7.
