It’s good to hear that DMX is back in action following that health scare last month, and to kick off his return, the revered MC is taking his talents out of the studio and into the ring.
X serves as the narrator for UFC 196, which will see Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor go blow for blow this weekend. To get fans even more amped for the forthcoming match up (Mar. 5), the “We Right Here” rapper recounts each athlete’s history within the combat sport leading up to this moment.
“Sometimes, when a man sets out to make history, destiny intervenes and a fight comes together that defies reason and captivates the imagination,” he begins the “cold open.”
Current champion Holly Holm will first take on Miesha Tate ahead of the “fight that breaks every rule in the book, but makes all the sense in the world.” For fans of the sport, DMX is here to let you know that you’re in for a double treat from the sports’ top fighters.
