Recently Bellator announced the return of Kimbo Slice to fight this February against Dada 5000, a man he has a personal vendetta against:
“I am going to f— this n—— up,” a fired-up Slice told MMAFighting.com on Wednesday. “Don’t get me wrong, I’m open to all possibilities in an MMA fight including submissions and anything else that comes up. But the true fight fans appreciate a real fight, and this is two n—— from the same neighborhood who have a beef to settle. I’m going to knock his ass out and he’s going to wake up and not know what hit him.”
While many fans may have responded with a “who?” when Dada 5000 was announced as his opponent Friday, Slice is ready to fill in the details, saying he was a hanger-on with his crew who’s been using his brief brush with Kimbo to get his 15 minutes of fame.
“This is a guy who, when I making my transition from YouTube to MMA, and I was fighting Ray Mercer on pay-per-view, this was a guy from our neighborhood who we knew,” the Miami native said. “And we brought him in as sort of a bodyguard for that event, and he was around for a little while. He was never a part of our inner circle.”
