K1 fighter Badr Hari making a transition to Boxing.. Nazim Richardson training him

[FinitoElDinamita]

I dont know much about MMA, K-1 or any of that non-boxing shit but from what ive seen of Badr, this guy is the truth.. He has better than average boxing ability for a kickboxer and at 6"6, his movement is very fluid and throws good variety of punches. He started training with nazim and nazim can't complement him enough. He think Hari can make noise in the HW division and i agree with him..
Just looking at how shitty today's divsion is, I think Hari has more than enough tools to make a name for himself.

What are your thoughts on Hari?

I have seen him fight a little and he is easily one of the better K1 fighters so this announcement suprises me a little. He is known for his skills and his crappy attitude/sportmanship. If you want to see him get ktfo youtube "peter graham rolling thunder"for one of the better ko's u will see.

Hari is a tall, lanky guy but he has BIG one punch KO power.

He doesn't have the best discipline, however. He tends to fold when things aren't going his way.

I don't think we'll hear much about him.

[badr_hari]

I'll do my best and make a name in boxing.

Badr Hari is a vicious striker and one of the very best in K-1. He knocked out my boy Alistair Overeem before.

That said, I don't know how well he can do in boxing without using his great kicks. And he has been Ko'd himself a few times, and as others have said he has a piss poor attitude. He's a mean poor sportsman type of fucker.

hari is much chunkier now...for those who like stats....hari lost to schilt, ignashov twatted him out.

I don't think Hari will have the chin for the heavyweight scene. He'll be a foreign matt skelton.



Ignashov due to drink, surgery and a number of factors is not the fighter he was.

He is a good fighter and I think he will do ok but dont know if he will make top ten in the devision he fights in. I love K1. Wish they showed it over here in the UK.
I watch MMA, boxing and K1. They all have there good and bad points.

Good points:

boxing because they have the best athletes out of the three sports (probably because it has the most money poured into it).

MMA because it is the way you would have to fight one on one in a real situation (cant say no holding or kicking when in a real fight).

K1 because it is the version of MMA that usually always has good fights.

Bad points:

Boxing because you can get away with not getting hit if you turn around, constantly put your head down which you would not get away with in the other sports. A knee to the head if you bend down, a rear naked choke if you turn your back.

MMA because alot of the time one opponent is happy just holding the other boxer down without going for submission and going for a cheap win. The worst fight you could watch out of any three of the sports.

K1 because out of the three sports you have the least skilled people because there is not as much money in it.
