The Leeds native has never looked back since discovering Muay Thai at the age of 13. Harrison, who turns 39 on Oct. 5, competed in the biggest stadium circuits in Thailand, winning multiple titles.

Throughout his career, the British martial artist has shared the ring with top names like Singdam Kiatmoo9, Pakorn PK Saenchaimuaythaigym, Sagetdao Petpayathai, Nong-O Hama, Saenchai PKsaenchaimuaythaigym, and Anuwat Kaewsamrit.

His ultra-aggressive approach has been a key component of his game. He's brought the same fire into his stint in the world's largest martial arts organization, where he enjoys two knockouts from six fights against Muangthai PK Saenchai and Mohammed Bin Mahmoud.
