DMX Scared To Fight

DMX backs down from fight over fear for his safety.

Contact Music reports, rapper DMX’s new career as a martial arts fighter has already floundered - he’s pulled out of his upcoming bout with actor Eric Martinez, according to U.S. reports.

‘X’ who served jail time for drugs possession, animal cruelty and theft earlier this year (09), was set to step into the ring with Martinez in a celebrity Alabama Pride MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) event in December (09).
