This piece of shit!! What is this guy thinking?! Over the weekend, boxing promoter Damon Feldman announced that the George Zimmerman vs. DMX fight was cancelled. Well apparently he’s had a change of heart and it’s back on (without DMX). Why doesn’t he get that this just isn’t a good idea?! SMH. Check out what he had to say…
Via TheSource:
According to Feldman himself, as of Sunday evening, 9 PM, America can disregard the tweets he sent saying the fight was canceled.
Feldman says he sent the tweets during an “emotional” moment:
“I sent those tweets because I went through an emotional situation. I looked at my kids and I got emotional. I didn’t sleep for three days because I’m trying to figure out how this thing happened. As of right now, the fight is not canceled.”
Feldman revealed that he’s been in meetings all of Sunday to figure out “what direction” to take the planned boxing match:
“Right now we’re in meetings as we talk. It all happened so fast; It became a worldwide story. I honestly didn’t know it would go as far as the White House and me being threatened. Zimmerman still wants to fight but I’m trying to find out what direction to go in. I have a plan, though.”
He swears that his intent isn’t to hurt anyone, alleging that if he backs out of doing the boxing match now, someone else will come along and do it if he doesn’t. He also acknowledges that any proceeds would be the ill gotten gains of blood money.

Update via TMZ:
The owner of FilmOn, Alki David, tells TMZ … the fight will no longer be a celebrity boxing match… “this is going to be like Fight Club … a very bloody event.” Alki says the fight will happen March 15 from a secret location … and all profits will go to the Trayvon Martin Foundation.
But TMZ has learned the resurrected fight is not yet a done deal — we’re told FilmOn is still negotiating with Feldman for the rights and nothing has been signed.
