In his previous bout in December 2019 Badr Hari (106-14, 92 KO) faced Rico Verhoeven (56-10, 17 KO) in a highly anticipated rematch, which was his first appearance inside the squared circle since March 2018. He dropped the reigning GLORY heavyweight champion twice, yet was unable to continue after suffering leg injury in Round 3 (more on injury here).

During the heyday of original K-1 in Japan Badr Hari defeated and knocked out Peter Aerts, Semmy Schilt, Gokhan Saki, Alistair Overeem, Peter Graham, among others. He also held K-1 and It’s Showtime heavyweight titles.

More information and undercard bouts for the event are expected to be announced shortly.
