George Zimmerman Celebrity Boxing Match Update: Zim vs Black, as Rapper DMX Agrees to Fight Him
DMX has answered the call. Out of 15,000 more-than-willing applicants, including The Game, the 43-year-old rapper was chosen to enter the boxing ring and go toe-to-toe against George Zimmerman.
This was confirmed by celebrity boxing promoter Damon Feldman, as reported by TMZ. But even though Zimmerman has stated that he will donate the money he will earn from the match to charity, DMX has promised him that the fight is going to be a massacre.
Here's DMX's lovely pre-fight message to Zimmerman: "I'm going to beat the living f--- out of him...I am breaking every rule in boxing to make sure I f--- him up right."
Well, good luck George.
But the rapper is not yet done with the trash talking. He even offered to give his opponent a drink at the end of the fight. In the form of his urine. Right on his face.
It seems the upcoming celebrity boxing match scheduled for March 1 is turning out to be a classy sporting event.
But before the three-round match actually happens, there is still the matter of settling fees and contracts. DMX's representative told TMZ that although his client has verbally agreed to participate in the fight, he will only do so once a formal agreement has been finalized and he has seen the terms of the contract.
So come on guys, hurry up, work on that contract already.
The rapper's rage and sudden interest in full-contact sport was triggered by Zimmerman's claims that he's willing to fight anyone, even African-Americans, after being offered money by Feldman to participate in a celebrity boxing match.
George Zimmerman caught the attention of the world after fatally shooting 17-year-old African-American student Trayvon Martin in February of 2012. Zimmerman claimed that he shot and killed Martin out of self defense. His trial for manslaughter and second-degree murder ended in a controversial acquittal in July of last year.
