Didint know about Badrs layoff because of a love story, I knew it was because his emotional state in that period and kicking ground opponets so he take a break to Morroco...can you tell us more about that? or is too off topic? thanksthey both should had rematched when badr came back in 2011(and faced gregory tony) while Gerges had defeated Ghita at the same time,it would de a legit match with both on top(even with badr 1 year layoff due his love story with that millionare)
Its a good fight,haves history behind it but Gerges just came back of a quick brutal KO loss to brestovac,so it kills a lot of the upcoming fight.
On the other hand analyzing Hesdy last 4 fights(after the brestovac of course)
-Defeated Hron witch is a pretty good win,but it is diminished because Hron was a very late replacement
- Lost a good fight against Adegbuyi
-Got robbed against Guto(even being a shitty innactive fight he won hands down)
- On the Londt Fight Hesdy Clearly won the 1st round,lost the 2nd and had a close 3rd round,at the time i saw Gerges as the winner by rounds 1 and 3 but watched it again twice and i think he only won the 1st round,3rd was close but Londt made a bit more damage.
the ww tournament is decent, Doumbe vs Nabiev is amazing and Jaraya vs Miles Simson is a battle of who gasses first
Simson isnt bad,can take a lot of punishment and some good punch+low kicks combinations and throws the right high kick really well...
Jaraya usually starts go gasses hard after 1,5 rounds and i barely saw a fight that Miles simson isnt gassing hard on the third
if this Jaraya didnt win it by KO and the fight goes to the 3rd round,it is going to be funny,both are going to be half dead in it mark my words.
his love story is that two months after his fight with gregory tony he beaten up badly an dutch millionare in a clubDidint know about Badrs layoff because of a love story, I knew it was because his emotional state in that period and kicking ground opponets so he take a break to Morroco...can you tell us more about that? or is too off topic? thanks
That's an insane amount of mass to lose for an athlete in little over a year's time. He's probably far less juicy than he used to be.The weight ins are done, tommorow fight time, what you guys think? Badr is 101.8kg, was 114kg for the Rico fight...

I don't see how that has anything to do with what I said. I'm literally saying myself he's probably off the juice. It's still a lot of weight to lose.Or maybe this time he decided it's better to go clean like in the early days. Muscular Badr Hari was gassing quickly and he knows with Gerges it's almost a guaranteed long fight.

Yeah 24 pounds isn't really a whole lot for a man that's 6'6" or whatever he is. Hopefully he's like his old self being really fast and explosive.Agree with you man... 11 kg are not a little weight, but it's not that much either. Badr's natural weight used to be 97kg six seven years ago. And he looked in good shape at the weigh in.
once again glory website timer is wrongThink so
I hope we see the original version of Badr, the ko machine that destroyed Leko,Aerts,Karaev,Schilt...he is only 33yo and if focused can change the heavyweught devision, make kickboxing great again.
Also what you guys say about the young Mohammed Jaraya, he had some explosive fights in Enfusion:
He moved up to 77kg(welter) so maybe more explosive power
