Sometimes, the answer to such lines of thinking is as simple as having that unquenchable thirst for competition.

Muay Thai icon and ONE Championship standout Liam Harrison knows the ins and outs of the rigors of fighting with a decorated resume plus a penchant for fighting the very best in the sport like legendary icons Nong-O Hama, Petchmorakot Petchyindee and Rodlek PK Saenchai under ONE Championship.

But with him slowly transitioning into a full-time coach as his fighting career is nearing its end, Harrison shared on Instagram the passion he has for the sport via Instagram:

“Standing across the ring from another man who you know is an absolute beast, who you know has trained specifically to [expletive] you up for weeks and weeks, to me is the most fun thing to do on this earth.”

Harrison continued:

“You find out so much about yourself and your opponent in this short period of time…it truly is a beautiful thing.”
