British striking legend and former ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title challenger ‘Hitman’ Liam Harrison of England thinks very highly of his countryman, ‘G-Unit’ George Jarvis, and his demeanor heading into this weekend’s world title fight.

Jarvis is set to challenge reigning ONE lightweight Muay Thai world champion ‘The Immortal’ Regian Eersel of Suriname and the Netherlands for the coveted gold, and Harrison believes Jarvis’ no-nonsense approach to fighting will ultimately serve him well in the upcoming fight.

Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Harrison praised the British striker's headspace just days away from his first-ever world title opportunity in the world’s largest martial arts organization.

‘Hitman’ said:

"He wants to go against the big names, so I like him. That's what we want to see. He's strictly business and doesn't shout his mouth off."

Needless to say, Jarvis has the opportunity of a lifetime here. Just fresh off his first win on the global stage and main roster, ‘G-Unit’ is now faced with a world title shot.

However, it’s coming up against one of the most dominant world champions in ONE Championship history.
