Muay Thai master Seksan Or Kwanmuang is under no false pretense of the fight he's in for at ONE 168: Denver, and the legendary scrapper is just as prepared to put it all on the line as his opponent Liam Harrison.

"The Man Who Yields To No One" meets the British megastar in a 140-pound catchweight Muay Thai affair inside Denver, Colorado's Ball Arena on Saturday, 7 September, in a dream matchup that has fans around the world clamoring to see it finally happen.

The pair have made careers out of producing one-punch knockouts. They've also established that reputation in ONE Championship. So when two strikers of that caliber collide, Seksan is well aware of how one punch can end the bout at any time.

"Both me and him have the ability to knock each other out because we both have the same style. So, I have a strong belief it won't go the distance," the Thai great said. "But if we fight until the last bell, it's going to be a fierce three rounds!"

Across lengthy careers, somehow the duo has never managed to cross paths. Harrison has stated that ONE 168 could well be his last outing, and Seksan is honored to be hand-picked by the Brit for such an occasion.

However, that's as far as the sentimentalities stretch. After winning his first eight outings in ONE in must-see action, "The Man Who Yields To No One" suffered the first defeat of his promotional tenure at ONE Friday Fights 58 last April.

But when the chips are down and a war ensues, there aren't many other fighters better in that environment than Seksan himself. And the Thai scrapper knows a win over a former ONE World Title challenger will do wonders for him and his championship hopes.

"I'm glad he called me out. He's a legend. I follow him too. He's a heavy hitter. I'm glad he said he wanted to fight a legend from Thailand. I am flattered that he calls me a hero," Seksan said.

"Winning this fight is very important to me because I think a lot of fans think I'm no match for him. [They think] I'm going to get knocked out. If I can beat [Harrison], then I'll take another step [forward] in ONE."
