Badr Hari
K-1 Heavyweight champion

On April 28, at K-1 World GP 2007 in Hawaii, Badr Hari and Yusuke Fujimoto fought for the newly introduced Heavyweight belt. Hari started with a couple of low kicks that nearly knocked Fujimoto over, then followed up with a high kick and a left straight punch through the guard to drop the Japanese to the canvas. It was all over in 56 seconds and The Golden Boy was crowned the first K-1 Heavyweight Champion.[5]
HAri got his chance for revenge against Graham in Hong KOng where he again won by a clear unanimous decision.
On September 29, 2007 at the K-1 World GP 2007 Final Elimination, Badr Hari beat the K-1 World GP 2007 in Las Vegas tournament champion, Doug Viney, by a second round KO and qualified for his first K-1 World GP Final, held on December 8 in Yokohama, Japan. His winning-streak, was snapped in a decision loss to Remy Bonjasky, during quarter final.

2008

All of Hari's wins in 2008 were by knockouts, by beating Ray Sefo in Yokohama, Glaube Feitosa in Fukuoka and Domagoj Ostojic in Hawaii. On his next fight in Seoul he qualified for the K-1 World GP 2008 Final by TKO win over the Korean giant Hong Man Choi.

In quarterfinals on December 6, Hari defeated three time K-1 World champion Peter Aerts by TKO in the second round. Then in semis he knocked out Errol Zimmerman and headed to his first K-1 Final against Remy Bonjasky. After suffering a knockdown in the first, Hari was disqualified in the second round due to an unsportsmanlike conduct by stomping and punching downed Bonjasky while he has advantage. First the referee Nobuaki Kakuda issued a yellow card and a one-point deduction. In the meantime, Hari proceeded to Bonjaskys corner shouting and quarreled with his opponent's trainer Ivan Hippolyte who also approached to Hari aggresively, yet the officials prevented any further physical contact between them.After the five-minute recovery time elapsed, the doctor reported Bonjasky was seeing double and could not continue. Hari was issued a red card and Bonjasky was declared the K-1 World GP 2008 champion.
In later interviews Badr claimed Bonjasky was acting and "Remy's corner was screaming at him to stay down" as a reason for his behaviours.
After the event Badr was not suspended for his actions, but K-1 stripped him of his heavyweight title, and he was not paid for his participation in the tournament
While rumors of his participation and his opponent were abound, it was finally announced that Badr would face MMA Heavyweight Alistair Overeem in a K-1 rules match on K-1's NYE extravaganza. Hari lost the fight by the left hook KO in the first round within 2 minutes. Part of the fight agreement is that both Badr and Overeem would also fight each other in an MMA match for FEG's DREAM promotion sometime in 2009.
