wenn5358726_dmx__opt-1.jpg

Karma for attempting to fix your own fight, perhaps???

DMX is currently being sued for a million dollars by Thunder Productions for pulling out of a highly publicized boxing match with actor Eric Martinez!

DMX cancelled earlier this month when the promotion company refused to honor the clause in his contract which stated: "Event Promoter and Management agree that (DMX) is scheduled to win Boxing Challenge."

In the meantime, Thunder Productions have found the ying to DMX's yang to replace the rapper in the December 12th fight - washed-up Gangsta's Paradise rapper, Coolio.

Zing!

DMX Tries To Fix His Own Fight!!!

wenn5358726_dmx.jpg

DMX has pulled out of his upcoming Mixed Martial Arts fight!

The formerly jailed rapper was scheduled to fight CEO of Power Moves Entertainment, Eric Martinez on December 9th, but DMX's contract apparently requested the event promoter, Thunder Promotions, to fix the fight!!!

And they refused!!!!

DMX's contract stated: "Event Promoter and Management agree that (DMX) is scheduled to win Boxing Challenge… All parties agree this event has been scheduled to occur only in fun and that the artist involved is not a professional boxer."

Thunder Promotions are reportedly searching for another D lister to replace DMX at the upcoming fight - potentially one that isn't such a sore loser!

DMX Throws Down At Charity Event

Surprisingly enough, he didn't go to jail for this.

Over the weekend, rapper DMX was slated to perform at a charity event in Colorado Springs. He arrive fashionably late - 90 minutes late to be exact. (Perhaps he had a lot of bling to put on!) When he did arrive, security refused to let him in or perform as planned.

Big mistake.

Their error in judgement sent DMX off the edge and a screaming match ensued, followed shortly after by a physical match. The latter was cheered on by a room full of charity do-gooders, rooting on DMX to take down the man!

When the fight finally did break up and DMX did get on-stage, the sound system wasn't turned on and he was asked to leave.

Bummer!

Watch above to see DMX be treated like a common criminal and not the megastar he is!

DMX Taking It To The Ring

After maintaining a low profile since his release from jail in May, rapper DMX is giving Mixed Martial Arts a try.

X is going head to head in the ring with Eric Martinez, CEO of Power Moves Entertainment and the rapper's current representation.

Interesting career move?

The fight is taking place on December 12 at the Birmingham Jefferson Convention Center.

Hope he fares better than Jose Canseco!

DMX Released - For Now

dmx__opt.jpg

Citizens beware: DMX is on the loose!

The troubled rapper was just released from an Arizona prison.

DMX was serving time on charges of drug possession, theft, and animal cruelty from charges back in 2008.

And although he was only supposed to serve a 90-day sentence, his stay was extended after he was being a total douche while locked up.

But DMX shouldn't get too used to his freedom.

With his track record, he's likely to end up back in jail before the end of the year!

DMX Checks Into Celebrity Rehab

wenn888876dmx.jpg

Jail-plagued DMX is enlisting the help of Dr. Drew to kick his bad habit!

It's been announced that the troubled rapper will be heading to the Pasadena Recovery Center for VH1's 3rd season of Celebrity Rehab!

Rehab's resident drug counselor, the bespectacled Bob Forrest, has confirmed DMX's involvement with the new season but has yet to reveal the names of any other celebs heading to detox.

The rapper has dealt with his fair share of drug related run-ins with the law, most recently a drug possession charge that landed DMX in jail for 90 days!

Will Dr. Drew be able to set the rap star straight??? Doubt it! DMX is probably just doing the show because they pay their "celebs" and he needs drug money!

DMX in More Troubs!!!

caught__opt-1.jpg

You'd think being locked up in jail would keep DMX out of trouble, but that's not the case by far!

The incarcerated rapper is apparently a picky eater because after stealing a tray of food from the dining hall, DMX launched it at a corrections officer!!

Reeeeal smart, buddy.

The fussy rap star was also causing trouble earlier this month in the Tent City jail after refusing to show up for both his mandatory job and delegated medication time, DMX completely flipped out and hurled profanities at correction officers when he was denied his "medicine".

DMX was originally sentenced to 90 days in jail and 18 months of probation, but the bratty prisoner's re-booking will most likely threaten the terms of his probation.

We say throw the book at him!!

DMX Verbally Assaults Jail Staff, Now On Lockdown

caught__opt.jpg

DMX is a total diva!

While serving his 90-day sentence in an Arizona jail for drug, theft, and animal cruelty charges, the jailed rapper flat out refused to report for his mandatory job in the slammer.

The same day, this past weekend, DMX mouthed off to jail staff after not showing up to receive his medication at the appointed time and then demanded it an hour later!!

Dumb dumb dumb.

He's been punished with a lockdown, where he will be confined to a solitary cell for 23 hours of the day.

Serves the prima donna right!!

DMX Going to Jail for (Just) 90 Days

dmx.jpg

Arizona has finally handed DMX his jail sentence.

A judge ordered the rapper to serve 90 days on drug, theft and animal cruelty charges.

The music man, who's also known as Earl Simmons, has been held in custody since December.

He was NOT given credit for time served and upon his release will be on supervised probation for 18 months.

DMX had pleaded guilty to the charges to settle three criminal cases against him.

He has also agreed not to own any animals or posses firearms.

We really think DMX's probs are in the head and in addition to serving time needs to work his brain out with a therapist!
