Bellator boss not committing to another Dada 5000 fight
Dhafir "Dada 5000" Harris participated in one of the most watched fights of the year, but don't expect to see him back anytime soon.
Bellator president Scott Coker isn't exactly rushing to get him back in the cage.
At Bellator 149 in March, Harris battled Kimbo Slice for two rounds before collapsing in the third from a combination of punches and sheer exhaustion. A stretcher was brought out to take Harris from the ring and he ended up hospitalized for three weeks.
The organization was fortunate to avoid a terrible tragedy as Harris claims that his heart stopped during and after the match. It's unclear when he'll fight again and Coker is fine with him staying out of action.
"For right now, I say let's just be friends," Coker told MMAjunkie. "We can all be friends. There were a lot of situations in that last fight. I really wish the kid well.
"He had a tough going in the Kimbo fight and it was a very intense situation. I'm not sure I'm ready to handle that one again."
