In wonderful, but shocking, news for Badr Hari fans, K1 has announced that Badr Hari will replace Ben Edwards in the K1 World Grand Prix. Despite still having not gone to trial yet, Badr Hari would be an injection of vitality and excitement in a stale tournament.
I wonder how Hari will look, if prison will have taken out of him what it took out of Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson. Still, to be able to see a talent like Badr Hari in the ring again is joyous news for anyone who loves kickboxing!





omg i am so excited about that
bad boys is out badr hari we will be with you in k1 grand prix 2012
Great, but 2-3 weeks training for tournament……

Papa Mike is a personal trainer of Badr Hari. He seems an intimate friend as he went to pick him up when he was released from prison.
