"I'm not putting any pressure on myself" - Liam Harrison shares his mentality ahead of all-legend slugfest with Seksan

Muay Thai legend Liam Harrison is leaving all thoughts about the future course of his career on the backburner, to focus on his upcoming slugfest against Seksan Or Kwanmuang at ONE 168: Denver.

The 38-year-old slugger is making his highly-anticipated return to Muay Thai after being sidelined for two years due to a serious injury. Although Harrison is 100 percent recovered, he's a lot more mindful of his health and the effects that fighting has on an aging martial artist.

So to keep fighting at the highest level, Harrison prefers not to plan or look past his fight against Seksan this week.

Speaking to the South China Morning Post, 'Hitman' explained:

"I'm going to listen to my body, see how it goes. I'm not putting any pressure on myself. Step by step. One fight at a time. I don't want to start like, right, I'm gonna win this, and then I'm gonna do that, and then I'm gonna do that. I don't want to put any pressure on myself."

Check out the full interview below:

Harrison and Seksan are just days away from delivering one of the most legendary Muay Thai clashes the world has ever seen. They are currently in Denver, Colorado, tapering off their training to focus on the press conference ahead.

Tickets for ONE 168: Denver are available via Ticketmaster.
