‘Dada 5000 aka ‘Da Spartan”. That’s his ‘official name’ but the internet will probably know this guy as ‘Kimbo 2.0’. He hails from the same state of Slice and his head is also uniquely proportioned to have bizarre facial hair/hair cut combos. Actually, there a number of parallels between Dada 5000 and Kimbo Slice. A few years ago, Kimbo Slice hosted illegal backyard fights in Florida and introduced the MMA world to a young Jorge Masvidal as he TKOd light heavyweights on a weekly basis. As far as Dada 500, he gave birth (not in the literal sense, at least we don’t think so) to former TUFer and UFC fighter, Bruce LeRoy. So it only makes sense that Kimbo Slice and Dada 5000 should scrap inside a cage for some indiscriminate belt — and that’s exactly what’s going to happen.
TheFightNerd reports that on yesterday’s Rodolfo Roman show, Dada 5000 announced that he will be fighting Kimbo Slice on January 12th 2012 for the WFO heavyweight championship title. It will be an MMA bout and will be aired on PPV. The location will most likely be the MGM Grand Casino in Las Vegas or Universal Studios in Florida. GSP vs. Nick Diaz would have been enjoyable, but let’s face it, this is the fight you’ve always wanted to see.
