Fold this, but not just for the reasons of this individual hand. For reference: he's tight, and he's only left 800 chips behind his raise. Unless he's super weak/tight he's probably calling your push and as taipan168 said, he has you by the 24o balls. Also think that losing this hand puts you within 300 chips of badbeatagain - not a good margin.
The more important reason is that on many bubbles, the medium stacks will play for ITM and will drop most of their blinds/limps to your raises.
You want to keep the short stack in there and with a healthy enough chip count that he doesn't start fighting like a caged animal (although not all will) so you can keep the bubble going and pound the crap out of the other stacks. Once they realize what you're up to and start pushing back or they take each other out, you'll hopefully have 7000+ chips and a 1st place is much easier.
Of course, this all depends on the texture of the bubble.
