After losing to Saenchai, Sagetdao would go to England and fight their best fighter, Liam Harrison. Sagetdao frustrated the Englishman with hard kicks and survived big punches to earn a decision. After this victory Sagetdao would once again meet up with Saenchai, but this time he was doing it on his own. The fight took place at the annual year end Lumpini stadium birthday show.

This fight was for the WBC Diamond super lightweight belt and Sagetdao would win with a stoppage at the end of round 3 because of a large cut on Ross's head from an elbow.
