BADR HARI TO REPLACE BEN EDWARDS IN K-1 GRAND PRIX
We are as confused as you when it comes to this news, honestly, but K-1 and the Fight Channel have announced that Badr Hari will replaced a recently injured Ben Edwards in the K-1 World Grand Prix in Zagreb. The announcement came this afternoon that Badr Hari, who has not fought since May of last year for K-1, would make his shocking return to the ring squaring off against Zabit Samedov.
Badr Hari has had some legal problems of late, to say the least, and was actually just recently released from prison provisionally. He was released under the rules that he is not to contact any of the witnesses in his upcoming case and that he is not allowed to attend bars or eateries past a certain hour. He had the same provisions before and broke those, which sent him back into prison. We already know that he's been back into training, although he is quite a bit more lean than when we last saw him, so it is still a bit shocking that he is ready to fight.
Still no word on his legal situation and if he is actually legally allowed to leave the Netherlands before his trial, but K-1 has announced that he'll be fighting, so cross your fingers, Badr Hari fans.

Zabits Dead! I think he'll be getting a injury soon, you watch.

Badr has beat him before, but he currently looks like a toothpick.

His speed and technique will always prevail. I've never thought Hari was the biggest of HWs anyway. If he was 6"1 instead of 6"6 I think he probably would've been a MW, but every shot is perfect and technique beautiful from Badr.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him lose, Braddock should of got the W against him.

Originally he was a fairly small HW. He's bulked up quite a bit.

He looks like the Badr of 05 since being released from prison.

I saw that..well only in a picture, so it was kind of hard to tell. Ironic that he is looking like he used to when he had all the time in the world to do nothing but work out while locked up. Just saying

WOW!
That's the same pic I saw, but I was on my phone, so couldn't see that much of a difference.

Cool. I had no idea Hari was out of prison or that K1 was doing a show. I guess I"m out of touch with kickboxing.
