I absolutely wish I was joking
Rapper DMX (you know, the guy famous for his aggressive lyrics and barking on his tracks, till he stopped rapping and just started getting arrested a lot) will be making his Mixed Martial Arts debut December 12. The bout will be part of the Alabama Pride event for Thunder Promotions, and will be headlined by MMA “superstars” Butterbean and Tank Abbott (the quotes there were quite necessary).
Now, here is the the fun part – DMX’s opponent, Eric Martinez (according to fiveouncesofpain) is the CEO of Powermoves Entertainment and has done business with DMX in the past. So it seems that they likely had a business dispute and instead of resolving it like gentlemen, they will fight it out in a cage. Brilliant.
Part of me really really wants to see this event, because of the awesome video game from years ago – Def Jam Vendetta - aka super rap fighter 2, and the fact that DMX was hands down the cheapest character in that game (in a fighting game where every single part of your body had its own health bar, 95% of his attacks were to the head, and 80% were head submissions, so if you use DMX, the other guy will tap out almost every time).
Now, let’s see if DMX can summon the power of his Def Jam Vendetta alter ego and make Eric Martinez tap out, to show him how real CEOs do.
