It looks as though the proposed George Zimmerman boxing match that had everyone talking this week has been cancelled, as per the promoter behind the idea, Damon Feldman. After much backlash for the so-called “celebrity” showdown, Feldman took to Twitter to announce that the bout would not be happening.
The George Zimmerman fight is canceled I'm sorry for anyone I hurt with this but this was a very big opportunity thank you

In the days following Zimmerman’s boxing challenge, rapper The Game showed interest in taking Trayvon Martin’s killer up on the match, telling TMZ that he would “beat the f--k” out of Zimmerman. DMX was also another prospect opponent that had been thrown around, though he confirmed earlier this week that nothing was officially scheduled for the fight Feldman claimed was worth a million dollars.
