George Zimmerman to face DMX in 'celebrity'€™ boxing match | FOX Sports on MSN

Why are people still entertaining this guy? He has officially reached celebrity status over killing a teenager and anyone who agrees or wants to challenge him is doing nothing but feeding his fame. Both Zimmerman and DMX are using Trayvon's tragic death to increase their status thereby eventually increasing their bank accounts.

Zimmerman is down to fight any man, but claims he was beat up by a child.....

And City-data posters ran with it since the child was Black.

I am convinced that certain people on city data post crazy stuff, just to get a rise out of people!
To DMX:
Please don't fight this clown and get some help!

So killing a 17 year old while he's on his way home from the store makes him a celebrity? Sick.

Not just a celebrity, but a hero as well.

That's the worst part. He's been put on a pedestal by group of gun loving and often racist individuals.

As much as I would like to see Zimmerman get his ass whupped, I really hate to see the murder of a teenager be exploited and used this way.

His poor parents.

I just read that the boxing match has been canceled. Here is a quote from the promoter:

"The George Zimmerman fight is canceled I'm sorry for anyone I hurt with this but this was a very big opportunity thank you
