35-year-old Muay Thai veteran 'The Man Who Yields To No One' Seksan Or Kwanmuang of Thailand is flattered his upcoming opponent thinks so highly of him.
Seksan is ready to meet British Muay Thai icon and former ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title challenger 'Hitman' Liam Harrison of the United Kingdom in the Circle next weekend.
Harrison has often referred to Seksan as "the one that got away" and a "dream opponent," and rightfully so. 'Hitman' and Seksan are two of the most explosive fighters in the game, and their upcoming battle is an absolute treat for fans.
Speaking to Sportskeeda MMA in an exclusive interview, Seksan acknowledged Harrison.
'The Man Who Yields To No One' stated:
"I’m so honored to know that I’m his dream fight."
That being said, Seksan says he's open to facing legends in big super fights at the tail end of his career, understanding that retirement is not far off.
Seksan added:
"For me, Buakaw [Banchamek] is another legend I have a lot of respect for. I can face anyone before my retirement."
Needless to say, the upcoming Seksan vs. Harrison showdown is one for the ages and a fight that fans simply cannot miss.
