WTF is Zimmerman thinking now- a celebrity boxing match!?

[Ronin13]

That is correct... there working out the details, but George Zimmerman just can't stay away from the spotlight. Now he's reportedly set up a boxing match with rapper DMX. Sometimes the truth really is stranger than fiction:

DMX VOWS TO 'BEAT THE LIVING S***' OUT OF GEORGE ZIMMERMAN IN BOXING MATCHGeorge Zimmerman's next opponent won't be anyone from law enforcement or the legal profession but a rap star with his game face on.A celebrity boxing promoter (http://www.cnn.com/2014/02/05/showbiz/zimmerman-dmx-boxing-match/) is putting the finishing touches on plans to pit Zimmerman, who killed Trayvon Martin in an altercation which, for some Americans, fueled concerns over racial discrimination, against rapper DMX.

DMX has promised to 'beat his ass,' but no contract or paperwork has been signed or agreed to yet," DMX spokesman Domenick Nati told CNN Wednesday.
Zimmerman, a boxing enthusiast, came up with the idea. He may wish he hadn't given what DMX has said so far about the match. The fight's promoter says the rap star is "out for blood" in a match tentatively set for March 15 should all the paperwork be settled by then.

Not only will he break every rule in boxing, he said, he'll "beat the living (expletive)" out of Zimmerman.

Honestly, Zimmerman just needs to go away.

No kidding... unless he has a death wish, or is a huge attention whore.

[ChuckNorris]

Maybe he will fight Tonya Harding!

[Ronin13]

I think he'd stand a chance against Tonya Harding... but DMX? That guy grew up in the projects of Yonkers, NY, and is a multiple convicted felon... something tells me the guy who grew up beating up people for their expensive clothes/accessories will destroy the neighborhood watch wannabe-cop.

I dunno. DMX is bringing emotion to the ring, which could set him up for a loss.

[n8tive97]

Stupid...

Sent from my ultra conservative tracking device.....

[MrPrena]

Well... I don't think this guy will have any kind of work, because of his negative media exposure. He does not have a capitals (due to legal fees) to start anything.
Therefore, he needs to act stupid/draw attention to make money. Painting was one of em.

[tmleadr03]

DMX wins in first round.

[Colorado_Outback]

I would pay to see that..

[blacklabel]

DMX would beat him like a red headed step child but let's not act like every part of this won't be choreographed.

[Aloha_Shooter]

Guy has to earn a living somehow. The Obamorons and racists have made it impossible for him to get a normal job or fade away.

[Danimal]

Lets see here:

Outcome one: DMX smashes the hell out of him. Zimmerman still considered a racist and still hated by the black community. Most probable.

Outcome two: Zimmerman through some miraculous feat of will and strength manages to beat DMX. Zimmerman still considered a racist and still hated by the black community, probably more than before. Slight chance

My prediction regardless of outcome: The fight erupts into a huge race battle. People fighting in the stands and in the streets over nothing. People still hate each other for no reason, and the fight is just another publicity stunt that makes both of them money at the expense of human decency.

[Circuits]

He probably needs money. I imagine he can't hold down any kind of normal 9-5 job given his notoriety.

[UrbanWolf]

Zimmerman? Never heard of it.

[flogger]

He's going to get his multiracial White-Hispanic ass kicked.

[ChuckNorris]

He's going to get his multiracial White-Hispanic ass kicked.

"DOWN GOES ZIMMERMAN - DOWN GOES ZIMMERMAN"
I can hear Howard Cosell (RIP) screaming it!

[clublights]

I dunno .. DMX is 43.. has not been training for the fight but does have 3 inches of height on zimmerman... probably not been in a real fight in a large number of years.

Zimmerman is younger at 30, and has been training for the fight.

I'm gunna laugh when Zimmerman wins and DMX losses a TON of street cred ruining what is left of his music career ... can't be the hard ass rapper that the " white boy" ( sorry everyone still thinks he is white despite the facts) put a beat down on.

[davsel]

I'm thinking it was not a good idea to put him up against a black man.

[tmleadr03]

I'm thinking it was not a good idea to put him up against a black man.

Zimmerman asked for it.

[Zundfolge]

I'm thinking it was not a good idea to put him up against a black man.

What would be the point of him fighting any other race? The whole point of this is to give black people a chance to see him beat down by a black guy since they couldn't rig his trial.

I wouldn't be surprised if part of his thinking is "maybe if they see me beat up by a black guy they won't hate me anymore" ... sorry George but tha brothas and sistahs gonna hate yo ass forever!

[KS63]

My prediction: Zimmerman gets KO'd and DMX breaks down and cries like he did onstage awhile ago because the life of a Celebrity is so hard.

[Zundfolge]

I would pay to see that..
I'd pay to see it if I knew Zimmerman would be packing his KelTec [Muaha]

[hghclsswhitetrsh]

What would happen if Zimmerman killed DMX with a punch to the head during a sanctioned fight?

[davsel]

There would be much cheering from me.

And then they are going to start bitching about Zimmermann being able to beat up a grown ass man but having to resort shooting a 17 years old...
A stupid idea if I ever heard of one.
Loose-loose situation.

[sroz]

Where's my "Give-a-Shit" meter when I need it.....

[Zundfolge]

Loose-loose situation.
Honestly at this point, any decision Zimmerman could make about anything would likely be a loose-loose situation (as Aloha Shooter pointed out he isn't going to be allowed to have a normal life ever again).

[RMAC757]

Where's my "Give-a-Shit" meter when I need it.....

Haha yup. Seriously. Who cares about this garbage? Wow, a PPV event that reignites hatred and race baits. How clever.

As far as the fight is concerned yes...

But I find it funny as hell how much everyone is buying into DMX's rapper image.. its exactly that .. an IMAGE..

[ZERO THEORY]

I agree with this. But he should've sued CNN for libel and laid low in the sticks somewhere. Maybe found employment doing op. ed. stuff somewhere. Hell, I don't know...start a Google partnership and write a 2nd amendment blog. Bottom line, do it from somewhere where people aren't likely to come by and bug you, and more importantly, don't agree to do boxing matches with black people and paint inflammatory paintings.

It's akin to OJ writing If I Did It. Except that in Zimmerman's case, he's making all of us who stood with him (and gun owners as a whole) look bad by playing into the stereotypes.

[h2so4]

i cant believe he is now labeled a celebrity

[Monky]

i cant believe he is now labeled a celebrity

Have you met the Karashians?

[Sawin]

Wow, if it happens I'd like to see the video online. I will not be paying for, nor coordinating my time, to watch it live.

[osok-308]

He had his fifteen minutes of fame and wants more. That's really what it comes down to.

[Justin]

I'm really glad that I never got terribly wrapped up in defending Zimmerman. I think he was in the right when he shot Martin, but something about the guy has always just seemed a bit off.

Yeah, ^this!^

I'm also glad that I'm so old and out of touch with the modern music scene that I have no idea who some rapper called DMX is. No shits given about any thugs.

LOL. Guy was biggest in the mid 90s.

[RMAC757]

Not gonna lie. I listened to him

[mcjhr]

I wonder if Zimmerman trains to DMX.

STOP
DROP
SHUT EM DOWN OPEN UP SHOP!

[stevelkinevil]

You should have lied[LOL]

[blacklabel]

The promoter called it off.
