Badr Hari to Retire from Kickboxing in 2012, Plans to Pursue Boxing Career.

He says he's retiring after his fight with Saki this coming January.

Badr could very well change his mind before that time, but in a dying K-1, why would he?

None of the K-1 guys that've tried their hand in boxing have had much success, and vice versa. Hari has very good boxing for K-1, but he's had his ticket punched quite a few times, and I feel he's a bit long in the tooth at this point. I'd like to see him stick with kickboxing.
