Legendary Kickboxer Badr Hari Faces Retirement After Knockout Loss at Glory 89

12 October 2023 – bySaid@Bladi · 1 min read

Moroccan kickboxer, Badr Hari, is about to end his career after a recent defeat against Estonian Uku Jurjendal during the "Glory 89" event that took place last week.

The Moroccan "Goldenboy", now 38 years old, has suffered several setbacks in recent years. Last Saturday, against Jurjendal, he was knocked out, perhaps heralding an early retirement that many fans have been hoping for for several months.

The confrontation in Burgas, Bulgaria during "Glory 89" saw the Moroccan legend fall three times before being defeated in the second round, following a leg injury. This defeat adds to a series of losses he has suffered since joining the "Glory" organization in 2016, having won no victories in eight fights, losing five.

His long-time coach, Mike Passenier, revealed that despite these difficulties, Hari is considering offering one last fight to his fans before definitively saying goodbye to the ring.
