GLORY Announces Badr Hari – James McSweeney Fight
By FCF Staff
Badr Hari isn’t done fighting yet, as recently GLORY announced that the kickboxing star will fight James McSweeney in September.
Hari (106-16) is coming off a decision loss to Alistair Overeem in October (the result was overturned to a no-contest after Overeem tested positive for banned substances). Following that fight, Hari reported that the bout was likely his last.
But, more recently, GLORY has announced that the 38-year-old will take on McSweeny at a September 9th card in Paris, France. In addition, the winner will qualify for GLORY’s heavyweight grand prix, which will take place in December.
The 42-year-old McSweeny (47-8), meanwhile, is coming off a split decision win over Bugra Erdogan in December.
