Kickboxing Star Badr Hari Signs Six-Fight Contract with Glory, Eyes Comeback

For those who had already bet on an (early) retirement of Badr Hari, they were wrong. The Moroccan kickboxing champion intends to come back even stronger this year for new fights.

Badr Hari has indeed just announced that he has signed a contract with Glory for six new fights that are likely to be organized during this year and next year.

"Dear fans, I promised that 2019 would be ours. Today, I announce to you that I have just signed a contract for six fights. Now it’s time to regain the crown," the Moroccan writes on his Instagram account.

We know that the Moroccan is keen to take his revenge against several other champions, in particular against Rico Verhoeven and another fight against the other Moroccan Jamal Ben Saddik.

At 34 years old today, Badr Hari no longer has the form of a few years ago when just pronouncing his name was enough to scare his opponents and stir up the crowd. He will therefore have to train very hard to reach the same level as in the past. In addition, he is currently the subject of a doping suspension procedure that is still running for a few more months.

It should be noted that the Moroccan’s last fight dates back to March 2018 against the Egyptian Hesdy Gerges, a fight at the end of which they had both tested positive for doping substances...
