K-1 World GP 2008 Final took place a little earlier this Saturday at the Yokohama Arena in Yokohama, Japan.

It was an enjoyable event, filled with nonstop action. Unfortunately, it was marred by a bizarre and unsatisfying ending.

Yes, a bizarre and unsatifying ending. It was happen when Badr Hari pulled Remy Bonjasky to the ground in Round 2 and continued to pummel Bonjasky and even tried to stomp on his face.

It was truly shocking, especially seeing as he might of cost himself the whole tournament. Hari was given a yellow card for his "insanity" and fined 10% of his purse.

Bonjasky was given 5 minutes to recover but was still seeing double after the time elapsed. So, the referee called the match and disqualified Hari for his actions and talkabout a disappointing ending to an otherwise great event.

When all was said and done, Bonjasky was crowned the K-1 World GP Champion for a third time in his career.

This event also featured EliteXC fighter Kimbo Slice as guest commentator.
