Alistair Overeem and Badr Hari will square off for a third time in the kickboxing ring later this year at Glory Collision 4.
Promotion officials announced on Tuesday that the trilogy bout will headline the event at the GelreDome in Arnhem, the Netherlands, on Oct. 8. Overeem and Hari squared off twice under the K-1 banner more than a decade ago, with each man winning one fight via knockout.
Overeem signed with Glory in 2021 and was expected to make his promotional debut against Rico Verhoeven at Glory Collision 3 this past October before being forced to withdraw due to injury. Overeem parted ways with the UFC following a second-round TKO loss to Alexander Volkov at UFC Fight Night 184 in February 2021.
Hari, who hails from Amsterdam but fights out of Morocco, is a former K-1 Champion and owns a 106-17 career record in kickboxing. His last appearance ended in a no contest when a riot ensued in the crowd at Glory 80 in Hasselt, Belgium.
