George Zimmerman to fight rapper DMX in celebrity boxing bout

[NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong]

As far as Im concerned, Zimmerman is already well known and will probably profit off of his "fame" somehow anyway (by movie/book etc). If this boxing thing is going to happen regardless, I don't mind seeing him get his ass beat along the way.

its interesting that this case is like a reverse OJ where black people enjoyed OJ trolling and the anger of whites and now its kind of the opposite

both situation peoples lives were taken away...and i would make the case that OJ's victims were more victims where I hate to even bring up the topic but its likely that Trayvon was the initial attacker and he had the bad luck of taking it too far on a kid who had a gun and its up in the air and only God and Zimmerman know if Trayvon was a victim or an aggressor

bias on both sides had people picking what they felt who played what role

I won't be watching. This muthafukker should be lucky he's still breathing but he's out here acting a fool and IF something should happen to him, it will be his own fault.

 

[Drummage_EL]

They made sure to not choose a black man that's guaranteed to beat the shyt out of zimmerbytch.
This fight is clearly fixed.

No way...I feel like regardless of who wins, we all lose. Except for Zimmerman, anyway.


Let's say -

DMX wins: Ok, Zimmerman gets his ass beat in the ring for a couple minutes, then goes home and continues being a celebrity. Is that supposed to somehow make up for Trayvon's death or make his family feel better? Please. And even if DMX wins, Zimmerman is still caking off of the whole situation and gaining fame and popularity.

Zimmerman wins: Racists have a field day, it's "revenge for OJ" for racially resentful people and everybody is embarrassed for DMX. Zimmerman will still cake off of this and become even more of a "Celebrity".


And of course, either way, we all get the added bonus of more racial tension for everybody. Which I'm sure would be good for the country.


Anybody who would feel any degree of satisfaction from Zimmerman losing the fight is ridiculously petty. And let's also keep in mind that DMX is a 43-year-old (recovering?) crack addict, while Zimmerman has supposedly been training for months. It's quite possible that DMX will lose - badly.


The whole thing is .

The problem with that is, too many black people don't respect the loss of black life either. Between the dope dealers, gangsters, those that glorify "dat life" and the rest who are either apathetic or overwhelmed and feel helpless, raising the value of black life just isn't feasable in this day and age. Hasn't been for quite a long time, but what befuddles me is when that will change. It's sad to say but, too many black people in this country don't even respect themselves and lack pride as well as dignity, and this case, DMX IS A PRIME EXAMPLE of a someone with a false sense of pride. Trayvon Martin wasn't a choir boy, but on a night that he was minding his own business he ended up getting profiled, stalked, and after defending himself and his own rights, lost his life in the process. His life was scrutinized, and he was deemed a criminal that the world is better off without, and his killer with a notable history of questionable behavior was free to go because after all, it is one less niqq"er". No great loss.

Now, to add insult to injury, a dustheaded shell of himself black man who only had a false sense of pride even before he was dusted, is going to take the bait to fight the killer of an unarmed teenager in a "celebrity" boxing match. Any black person that participates or supports this "celebrity" boxing match really needs to reexamine themself. Sh!t is just sad and pathetic. I keep hoping someone says that this story is just one massive troll attempt that went too far. Same blacks that participate and support this "celebrity" event would probably watch a Reality Dating TV series featuring Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemmings and probably say to themselves, "they really do seem to be in love."

Individuals like DMX comprise the majority of blacks in America today. They have a false sense of self and have ABSOLUTELY no critical thinking skills when it comes to confronting social/racial issues concerning our people. If you want to honor the young brother Trayvon, don't do it by patronizing a "celebrity boxing match". Honor this brother by preventing the next young brother from getting gun down senselessly by whom ever. But I don't expect someone like DMX to even begin to have that level of thinking. After all he and a host of other rappers have made millions off of "black murder/death music" where the outright murder and degradation of black men and women is celebrated and honored.
We'd all like to see Zimmerman dead or locked up for life and under normal circumstances that may be so. But now we live in a time where black life isn't only devalued by non-blacks, but blacks themselves. Now is the time for a cultural reformation. The single biggest threat to our race are the ones whom have embraced ignorance. In a time of social and racial strife they'll be our biggest barrier when it comes to unifying our people.

I agree that the whole thing is disgusting and shouldn't be happening. I have no problem with protesting the whole thing and completely get all of the outrage.

My point is that he is low enough of a person to try and profit off of this regardless and with his level of public recognition already high and would stand to increase nominally, and if a boxing fight is going to happen regardless, then I dont fault people for taking pleasure in seeing him get beat up.

The whole thing happening is a huge loss for American society in general, as well as for Trayvon's family and others who are offended by this. Im not arguing that, or your opinion of increased racial tension etc. Sherman's rant alone incited racism and racists to come out of their pockets to express their backwards beliefs...and Im quite sure that this would cause a similar phenomenon. All Im saying is that, if it is inevitable for this fight to happen, or for him to profit, again, I dont necessarily fault those who will take pleasure in watching him get beat up a bit. It's barbaric and petty, yes, but he deserves an ass beating and this is a legal way for it to happen. (Although I wish DMX wasn't the guy to get a shot at doing it)

Hopefully, Zimmerman wins. We know what he does when he loses a fight...

first three minutes sums up my position.

oj was found innocent. theres no question that zimmerman killed a teenager. and OJ didn't become famous for murdering. He was famous way before. And a crime of passion and a baited crime are two totally different things. So basicaly. STFU.

 

[OsO]

you don't get it. Regardless of getting his ass kicked or not, this dude will be able to profit, thus creating a more comfortable lifestyle for him to live.

Dude gets his ass kicked for one day, walks away with 500k+, then breh can be straight and good for a few more years....

The point is to make this guy suffer and live on the edge, every single day of his life.

zimmerman is getting 500K?

regardless, money never lasts for idiots like zimmerman.

but pain can last forever
