It has just been announced that the current Strikeforce Heavyweight Champion Alistair "Demolition Man" Overeem has been offered another K-1 match by K-1's governing body, the Fighting and Entertainment Group (FEG). The proposed opponent is fellow Dutchman, K-1 Champion Remy Bonjasky. Overeem and his management (Golden Glory) have already accepted the offer, the ball is now in Bonjasky's court according to some sources. At the end of 2008, Overeem shocked the world of martial arts by knocking out K-1 star Badr Hari under the K-1 rules at Dynamite!!. On March 28, Overeem will continue his K-1 career and with a victory over Bonjasky, he could become the world's most feared striker.

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.
