I have tested positive for coronavirus. I’m currently in Home quarantine and recovering well after a couple of days of sickness. We took all the safety precautions around COVID-19 very seriously from the beginning of this pandemic but unfortunately this contamination occurred. That shows us how seriously we have to take the virus. At this moment I need to rest and I will resume training as soon as possible. #UNSTOPPABLE

Hari, 35, had to face Benjamin Adegbuyi at the upcoming GLORY 76 event on November 7 in Netherlands. The Dutch fighter said that he ceased training and will be going into quarantine for 14 days.

Unfortunately, a couple of hours later, GLORY kickboxing's Dutch public relations sent out a release that the return of GLORY will be once again postponed.

This is the third postponement of GLORY 76. Initially, the event had to take place in March, but the coronavirus pandemic shut it down. Then it was announced that the fight night will go on in October, but then it got pushed back to November.

In the last few days, the country is experiencing a significant rise in coronavirs cases and the authorities implemented a partial lockdown.
