Legendary Thai star Seksan Or Kwanmuang is gearing up for an exciting clash for his next outing. He’s set to face British veteran Liam Harrison in a catchweight Muay Thai fight. This highly anticipated bout will take place at ONE 168: Denver, and ensue at the Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado, on Friday, September 6 on U.S. primetime.

This fight marks the comeback of Liam Harrison, the #5-ranked ONE bantamweight Muay Thai fighter. He’s been sidelined by injury since 2022. Before heading out on vacation with his son, Seksan recently took to social media to announce his philanthropic efforts, including a donation to his former elementary school.

Apart from his fearsome skills in the ring, Seksan Or Kwanmuang also has a philanthropic nature that not a lot of people may know about. Despite his demanding fight career, Seksan hasn’t forgotten his roots. He recently made a heartwarming donation to his former elementary school through his brother, proving that even after achieving success, he hasn’t forgotten the people who helped him along the way.

His social media post shows a picture of his brother together with students and staff in his former school. In a quick interview with ONE, he shared more details about the event, saying, “I usually like to open donations to raise money for various foundations. But this time, I tried to raise money to donate to my old elementary school. However, on the day I had to give the donation, I had work to do in Phuket, so I asked my younger brother (khunponnoi-sor-sommai) to donate the money on my behalf.” Seksan also expressed gratitude to a sponsor from Singapore, who he said always helps donate to the funds he raises for his charity efforts. 

Seksan Or Kwanmuang’s act of kindness proves that success hasn’t changed his core values. Nevertheless, his focus now shifts to the upcoming challenge against Liam Harrison. Harrison appears ready to face him at ONE 168: Denver and a social media post show that he is locked in on his fight against “The Man Who Yields To No One”.
