Today In Bizarro World News: George Zimmerman and DMX Want to Box Each Other
Unfortunately, you read that correctly.
In news so weird it sadly has to be true, it appears that “neighborhood watchman” George Zimmerman and, er, eccentric rapper DMX will be attempting to solve America’s racial tensions by participating in a televised “celebrity” boxing match. We don’t really have the words to express how we feel about this, so we’ve gathered ten of the most insightful tweets about the situation. God help us all.
I imagine George Zimmerman was hoping for a Celebrity Boxing opponent of the "Screech," "Mini Me" variety. #DMX

DMX is going to have to knock him out. If it comes down to a judge's decision, you have to like Zimmerman's chances.

I envision DMX's training for the Zimmerman fight looking a lot like Pookie's rehabilitation in New Jack City.

I've played enough Def Jam Vendetta to know that DMX is really good at fighting, way better than Redman or whoever.

DMX: When Zimmerman opens his mouth to call you a slur, punch him in it. When his pants fall down, work the body. pic.twitter.com/z0L44BAL82

The only thing I will say abt GZ and this boxing match is that my prayer is for the superhuman crackhead strength to be revealed in DMX
