Week After Bellator Fight, “Dada 5000” Still In Hospital

The toll that fighting – and cutting weight – took on “Dada 5000” has the street-fighting legend still in the hospital.

Dada 5000, real name Dhafir Harris, posted an update to his official Facebook page indicating that he is still suffering from the effects placed on his body. Harris lost to Kimbo Slice in the co-main event of Bellator 149.

DHAFIR HARRIS – DADA 5000 MEDICAL UPDATE

We had hoped to bring Dada’s fans and supporters news that he would be released today after completing a full week in the Hospital, however, his Doctors have required that he stay through the weekend and into early next week for continued monitoring and observation. If his progress continues as it has he should be released early next week.

We appreciate the outpour of support from fans all around the country wishing Dada a speedy recovery, your kind words and prayers are heard.

We would also like to thank the good people at BELLATOR, the EMT’s, doctors and nurses at the Hospital, his friends and everyone who has worked their best for Dada to get better. Thank you.
