Good news Badr Hari fans! It appears that the K1 Rising event on May 27th will be available to fans all around the world via the Ustream.com website. The cost is $19.99 and will also have Mirko Cro Cop returning to his K1 roots. This is a good chance for the international audience to support K1, as they are in a crucial rebuilding process of their brand. If you want to see K1 continue to rebuild I would recommend purchasing the broadcast.
In somewhat unrelated news to Badr Hari, I just found out that the Queen of Morocco Lalla Salma is a ginger. I know that Badr Hari has received special commendation from the royal family for his achievements in kickboxing. I just thought this was a curious aside, as Salma looks more Irish to me than Moroccan!
In other news, come back soon for some more Badr Hari news within the next couple days as his fight with Anderson Silva looms closer and closer!
I will cover the Badr Hari’s fight, as well as the entire K1 card on this site!
Very exciting friends! Badr Hari is back, and so is K1! Kickboxing is not dead!
Recently, I have heard from a variety of sources that Badr Hari’s girlfriend is pregnant with his child. I don’t know who his current girlfriend is, but I have refrained from posting about it, because I didn’t want to post unsubstantiated rumors.
However, in a recent interview with fighthype.com, Mike Passenier has made these interesting comments about why Badr Hari CANNOT train full-time in the USA yet, “There is also something personal that keeps him at the moment from going to the U.S. You’ll find out soon enough.”
To me, Mike Passenier has pretty much indirectly confirmed that the rumors about Badr Hari becoming a father are true. While usually very tight-lipped about his personal life, rumors have leaked amongst Badr Hari’s inner-circle that his girlfriend has been indeed pregnant with his child.
If he is going to become a father, I say congrats to him, because considering how important family is to him, I’m sure he will be a great parent.
I guess the more things change, the more things stay the same. In preparation for his upcoming fight with Anderson Braddock Silva, Badr Hari has once again returned to his stomping grounds, Mike’s Gym. I have to admit, it’s hard to imagine Badr Hari seriously training anywhere else, after spent so many of his glory years in kickboxing at Mike’s Gym.
But, in only a few short weeks, Badr Hari fans will be able to once again watch him in action. This is a rare treat, because he usually has pretty long layovers between fights, but he’s fighting relatively soon after his January fight with Gokhan Saki.
The photo below shows a private moment of Badr Hari. It reveals that in his free time Badr Hari enjoys playing the comparatively genteel sport of tennis with some friends.
He also likes to mug for the cameras, and seems pretty light-hearted, in comparison to his fearsome reputation.
