Dhafir Harris (born August 4, 1977), known as Dada 5000, is a Bahamian-American retired mixed martial artist and Combat sports promoter.
[3] Harris made his debut against Cedric James at the fourth event of the Action Fight League based in Florida.
[6] In contrast to his first prior bout, Harris paced himself and focused on tactical attacks during this fight, even putting Papp into a guillotine choke, but released his opponent to go for a KO victory.
[14] Slice soon died at age 42 some months after the bout, and Harris, despite their rivalry and remembering their one-time friendship, paid tribute to his fallen adversary on his Instagram page, citing him as somebody who "Showed the World that a guy from the Back yard circuit Can make it in Professional Sports and do the impossible".
[15] In May 2016, Harris stated his intention of not competing in MMA again for the immediate future due to his health concerns, but hoped to be back in action for combat sports when he was fully recovered.
[16] In addition, as a result of the events surrounding his fight with Slice and his health concern, Harris was suspended from MMA in the state of Texas indefinitely.
