Kick-boxing: Badr Hari loses his fight against Alistair Overeem and ends his career

More than 10 years later, Badr Hari 37 years old and Alistair Overeem 42 years old meet again. This time, it is at GLORY Collision 4, this October 8, 2022 that the two combat sports legends meet. For the Dutchman, it’s a first fight in kickboxing since December 2010 and for Badr, it’s the opportunity to stop a series of 6 fights without victory

Badr Hari, Moroccan kickboxing champion lost his fight on Saturday night against the Dutchman Alistair Overeem. The fight that counts for Glory Collision 4, was held in Arnhem in the Netherlands, the country where the two sportsmen grew up.

However, everything started well for the Moroccan, who generally managed the first two rounds well against an opponent who was waiting for a break. The 3ᵉ round was probably too much for Badr Hari who could not respond to the blows of Alistair Overeem. Down (knock-down) twice but not yet knocked out, the Moroccan managed to resist until the end of the final whistle.

The judges naturally declared Overeem the winner. Speaking at the end of the encounter, the Moroccan kickboxing world champion revealed that it was probably the last fight of his career.
