On October 8 in the Netherlands there will be a kickboxing fight, which has been attempted for more than a decade. The ring will be shared by the legends of the sport Badr Hari and Alistar Overim.
The fighters met twice before, in 2008 and 2009. Each of them won once, and the victories were won by the same way, by KO in the first round.
In bookmaker's betting odds, Badr Hari is the favorite.

The legendary kickboxer is on a streak of four losses in a row with two fights that have been declared null and void. But you don't have to dwell on this fact, he really lost to the monsters of kickboxing.
Alistar Overeem
Overeem was already in MMA when he fought Hari and hasn't been back to kickboxing since. We could even say this would be his debut many years later. But he used his punching skills in mixed martial arts to the fullest and won more often by knockout (47 victories in total, 25 of them by knockout). For more than ten years he fought in the strongest league of the world (UFC), and last year he left the organization (after losing to Alexander Volkov).
My goals are Badr, I’m gonna smash him, then I’m gonna smash Rico, and then, you know, maybe one more MMA. But for now, the goal is Badr and then Rico; get that belt. So, we also wanna finish that satisfactory, and I believe I have it in me. But it will be a time for me to hang up the gloves and pass on my knowledge.
Expert Betting Tips
Bookmakers believe Badr Hari is the favorite, but you can argue with that. Overeem hasn't fought since last February, healed his injuries, misses the ring, and is highly motivated. He's in shape for the fight. The fight will be principal, the rivals' skills are similar, and the winner will be the one who is better prepared at any given moment.
Alistair is still a top-notch fighter, but Badr Hari is going downhill in every fight. He's getting worse and worse. Another fact may play a role - remember the form of Overim before the USADA came to the bouts. And there is no strict doping control in Glory.
