If this guy makes a good transition from K-1 to boxing...

[Chaos]

All I saw in the vid was a wild flailing of arms. He squares himself up with his opponents, doesn't show any defence, and throws no jabs or straight rights.

He is big and fit, though. I'll give him that.

Lol, his straight right is actually one of his best punches, watch a few more highlights before passing judgment. He's even knocked a guy out with a straight right to the body.

Don't see it myself.

Big Overeem is a very good striker, but mainly with his legs. He flattened Badr with a left hook, he is often far too open.

He took that fight a month after the GP and hadn't trained because he completely underestimated Overeem. Watch the rematch to see a more accurate display of his skill.

I did watch it, it was a terribly early stoppage tbf.

Cant wait for the HW unification title match between Badr Hari vs Kimbo Slice!!

If you're saying the rematch was an early stoppage you have to keep in mind there's a 2 knockdown rule in the QF and SF of the GP (3 in the final).

Masato is a legend man

He's exciting as hell, great fighter. K-1 is dead now days especially without Hari. Too bad he'd need 4-5 yrs to even be considered a threat to the Klits.. and by that time the bros would be old/retired. Who knows he could prove me wrong and become a huge threat in 2 yrs, Richardson sees something in him which should count for something.

Oh and you don't have to worry about Hari ducking anyone, he's a maniac who would fight anybody.

If Haye with his superior speed and boxing skills couldn't beat Wladimir, I don't think this guy will. As far as looming threats to the Klitschkos go, I'd give David Price the edge over this guy. Price has good fundamentals, as well as power and size. Deontay Wilder and Chris Arreola are bigger threats, too.

I disagree with the poster who said his age is a problem. He is 27, so I'd say he would have another 8 or 9 years left. It seems you can be a bit older in the heavier weight divisions.

It would be good to have him in the division to make things more interesting.

Why not man! hes exciting! I think he can make some waves in todays heavyweight division! Look who is getting title shots! Mormeck wtf!

Mormeck would knock him out cold. Hari will only be exciting when he faces D list boxers with zero defense. His chin is more than suspect and his telegraph punches and aggressive style will make him a huge target. He's a great K-1 fighter but he has been in almost 100 fights and been KO'd several times. His 27 year old body has taken a whole lot of punishment. What about his stamina? Don't be suprised if he's completely gassed after 6 rounds. Nah he won't go far in boxing.

I think at best he could be a top 15 heavy, and probably make more money then he does now.

Any top 10 guy would probably TKO him rather easy.

It could be like that but it's gonna be interesting to see how Hari does
