DMX Faces Legal Fight

More legal woes for rap type DMX. He is being sued for pulling out of a celebrity martial arts competition, which would have seen him compete with actor Eric Martinez next month.

The hip hopper's people claim he was forced to pull out because the event's organiser, Thunder Productions, couldn't assure his safety. Team Thunder allege that the rapper bailed when they refused to rig the event so he'd win. They've managed to secure Coolio to replace DMX, but are suing him for wasting their time, seeking damages of up to $1 million.

"Couldn't assure his safety"?

Wasn't this the guy who was saying: “I figured I could do it. I’m just going to walk in as it is… It wouldn’t be fair if I trained. I can fight for real though, so it is what it is”.......
