Zimmerman is 57?, and his weight has fluctuated from 185lbs. to 285lbs. by media accounts most of it generally not muscle.
The Game said:
I will beat the f**k out of him. I would not be boxing for me. Id be boxing for the legacy of Trayvon Martin and for his family. I would box him to knock him out and I would definitely take pleasure in it. Its legal, and I want to show him you can solve your disputes without a weapon.

(3,300 posts)No way, for any amount of money, is GZ going to get into the ring with a 6'5 245 lb. back man that wants to separate his head from his neck.
I admit I'm fantasizing a little, but the thought of this makes me laugh. But beware: do not pay money to watch this garbage, because there will be "a catch" that will leave you as a taken fool.

(1,296 posts)If he's going to do celebrity boxing, he needs to go against someone in a reasonable weight class.
If this falls through, hopefully the world can come up with some smaller and more wiry rapper who can put him in the hospital. If it goes ahead, Game's best strategy would be to go easy until Z can be herded into a corner position where he can be stood up against the ropes for extended beating.

But what it is for is irrelevant, that would be a deal, not a due.

lark
(23,091 posts)Refs need to make sure that he doesn't have a gun hidden close by or he could feel threatened and kill Game "in self-defense". Game needs to be careful, Zimmer is a psychopath and doesn't play fair.
Myrina
(12,296 posts).... if he even lands a punch, Z's going to claim Game was trying to kill him, or violated the rules, or WTF-ever and it'll end up in court.
If Game lets Z walk out of the ring under his own power, Z's going to claim he won and all the RWFaux-tards are going to be gloating over their new white hero.
jmowreader
(50,555 posts)When you sign a contract to box a match you agree you understand the other guy might beat you to death. Which I think Game would try to do.

(17,528 posts)I wouldn't give Zimmy the pleasure of my money...even if he gave it to charity.
His ego would be broken if no one wanted to pay to see him. Trouble with that is he might go out and threaten or kill someone to keep his name in the news. His girlfriend says he gets depressed when his name isn't in the news. Poor murderer!
Orsino
(37,428 posts)Any chance Z had of making an honest living is long gone, as is his wingnut welfare. All he has to offer is a clown act, and I will not contribute.
But I understand the temptation. I just don't want him laughing all the way to the bank, even with a few contusions.

(1,296 posts)When fighters are really mismatched, a bit of padding isn't going to do much to protect against concussions, neck injuries, and the like. And those would probably just be from the finishing moves after a lot of systematic damage over the whole body, unless the Game gets too mad too soon and just puts him down in the first five seconds, which I hope he doesn't.
sir pball
(4,741 posts)He thinks he's a tough guy he should act like one, Fight Like A Man. I'd settle for the current MMA knuckle gloves I suppose...don't want the Game to cut himself or break a fist

(21,020 posts)Zimmerman might have been hoping for a match with Betty White, wherein she kicks his ass, and he "proves" once and for all that he really wasn't strong enough to have beaten Trayvon Martin.
OTOH, it would be great to see Betty White actually knock Zimmerman into next week...

Now he's actively looking for people to fight him? Interesting.
Won't play well the next time he's accused of assault.
Puny weak-sauce punk. A hundred year old grandmother with her arms in casts, could knock his crybaby block off. He's the one who claimed he is a wimpy, dweeb who knows zip about self defense.

(31,811 posts)Can't fight.
He's on the record for that. Go watch his interrogation by the po po. Seriously - he canNOT fight.
gollygee
(22,336 posts)Look up two posts. He said he can't fight, even after having tons of training on how to fight. He can't overpower a teenage boy much smaller than him. He can't overpower him enough to escape, let alone enough to fight. Suddenly he's wanting to get into a fight? Hmmmm.

(21,786 posts)Georgie Z is maybe 5'9" and around 180 if he's fit, 220+ if he's not; Game is 6'5" and 240. Was a high school and college athlete and has trained as a boxer. He's got height, weight, reach, speed and athleticism on his side. If Zimmerman agrees to the fight he won't last the first round.

Rozlee
(2,529 posts)He loves the national spotlight that's being shined on him and the right-wing worship of him as a thug-killer. Self-importance has a way of self-imploding. Especially for extremely stupid people like him.
freshwest
(53,661 posts)And no, I don't mean the other gun, either. Okay, leave it alone.
Will this be held in a SYG or CCW state?
TheGame is threatening to hurt Zimmie and he will be 'afraid for his life.'
I can't see Z going into the ring with a contender like this guy - taller, solid and with a purpose.
While a part of me would be satisfied to see this occur, another part tells me this is just more of the destruciton of the nation.
But then, that's the intent of Z and his supporters.

(15,741 posts)What great PR - the poor little Zim having the crap beat out of him by yet another black man just like the first time - this will be the subtext.
None should take up the challenge. Although a counter strategy might be to stand there and not fight. Try to reason with him in the public eye, see just how enraged he becomes.....
Shoulders of Giants
(370 posts)It will be too easy if Zimmerman gets knocked out in the 1st minute, which I'm sure this guy could do. Do consistent punches, but not hard enough to knock him out. make sure Zimmerman gets punched hundreds of times. Make his face bloody. Get him on the ropes as much as possible. Do this for several rounds and then do the knockout blow after Zimmerman has suffered as much punishment as possible.
mstinamotorcity2
(1,451 posts)Zimmerman will pull out a gun before the first punch is thrown.
Marie Marie
(9,999 posts)Because you know that when GZ put this out there, he was picturing Tanya Harding as his opponent.

I remember YEARS ago when Tyson was on top, guys wouldnt last 1 minute in the ring and you'd always hear people say "I'd get in the ring with him for 2 minutes for what that guy got paid"
But boy would it hurt!
Bonx
(2,053 posts)It's not exactly a real sport.

If Zimmerman does any celebrity boxing, it will be against someone as physically weak & slow as he is.

(No disrespect to gangsta rap, I like gangsta rap, The Game's cool, but all disrespect to Zimmerman). It reminds of that meme with Snoop Dogg and Martha Stewart.
