Due to the hostility between the two men, Bellator will heighten security around their February bout in Houston.
Like any fight promotion, Bellator knows that a good rivalry is key to promoting fights. And there's definitely no love lost between Kimbo Slice and Dada 5000, who will fight each other in February in Houston. But there's so much animosity there that Bellator president Scott Coker will be heightening security measures around their bout. He spoke to MMA Fighting about it:
"We're gonna have good security there, because we don't need any fight before the fight," Coker said.
