After initial reports that both rappers were in negotiations to take their beef into a celebrity boxing ring, Dizaster has confirmed that the boxing match has been scrapped.
Earlier this week, BattleRap.com spoke with the promoter behind the planned bout.
“I’ve been talking to both of them on the phone,” he said. “I’m just waiting to hear back — really, it’s all in Dizaster’s hands right now because [Math Hoffa] is in. 100%. He’s 100%. That’s the guy on the receiving end of the punch.”
Both rappers seemed open to the offer when rumors of a $500,000 purse began floating around on Twitter, but when Dizaster realized the far-smaller scope of the possible fight, the idea was quickly sidelined and Diz called it "another publicity stunt to make Math relevant." Notably, Celebrity Boxing promoter Damon Feldman's offer of a $10,000 purse is the exact amount AHAT owner OD offered shortly after Dizaster punched Math Hoffa at BOLA 5.

Meanwhile, Organik alluded to the publicity in his own tweets when the bout was first being discussed.
