From early novelty bouts to MTV-era experiments, the idea of famous names trading punches has often been dismissed as gimmicky. But long before influencer boxing became a billion-view ecosystem, one name kept pushing the concept forward. This guy battled against ridicule, obstacles and was ahead of his time. That name is\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/allhiphop.com\/tag\/damon-feldman\/\"><strong>Damon Feldman<\/strong>.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Based in Philadelphia, Feldman quietly built a parallel fight universe that blended pop culture, Hip-Hop energy, and real combat structure. His work with Celebrity Boxing revived a format many had written off.  He went from rappers to reality stars to former champions. After the pandemic, Feldman found himself in the right place at the right time.<\/p>\n<p>Now, he\u2019s doing it again with\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.officialcelebrityboxing.com\">XRumble Fighting Championships<\/a><\/strong>, a hybrid league designed to move beyond novelty and toward legitimacy. In a wide-ranging conversation with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/chuckcreekmur\/?hl=en\">AllHipHop\u2019s Chuck Jigsaw Creekmur<\/a>, Feldman breaks down his journey, the future of female boxing stars, Hip-Hop beefs that should be settled with gloves, and more.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><d## class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"><br \/>\n<d## class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Chrisean Rock Is Boxing: Promoter Damon Feldman Talks Adam22, DJ Akademiks, Shaq And More\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Dv12EjhwZWo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/d##><br \/>\n<\/d##><\/figure>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> Tell everybody what you\u2019re up to now, because your boxing game has been crazy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> It\u2019s crazy. When I first met you, I was on the grind trying to make celebrity boxing work. People didn\u2019t really believe in it. It ended up working. Now we\u2019re turning everything into XRumble Fighting Championships, which is a new boxing league. It\u2019s stand-up striking with MMA gloves. No takedowns, just striking. So they battle it out, and XRumble is really an alternative to celebrity boxing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> Celebrity boxing really put you on the map.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> Yeah, one hundred percent. I was undefeated, 9-and-0. When my boxing career ended, I didn\u2019t know what else to do. So I put together a celebrity boxing match here in Philly and sold it to Dick Clark Productions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> Oh wow, I didn\u2019t know that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> Yeah, only two years ago.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> Let\u2019s get right into it. Tell people what you\u2019re doing in April.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> I\u2019m really excited. We signed Chrisean Rock. She\u2019s one of the biggest female internet personalities connected to Hip-Hop. A lot of people don\u2019t understand she was on\u00a0<em>American Ninja Warrior<\/em>\u00a0and she won it. She was also one of the stars of\u00a0<em>Baddies<\/em>. I watched her spar with Ryan Garcia, and we ended up talking. I connected with her manager, Kimberly Ross, and now we\u2019re putting her fight together. She\u2019s fighting<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/znthpro\/?hl=en\"> Zenith Zion<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Chrisean is training with <a href=\"https:\/\/allhiphop.com\/tag\/gervonta-davis\/\">Gervonta Davis<\/a>\u2019 trainers, Calvin Ford and Kenny Ellis. I really think we\u2019re going to see boxing\u2019s next female star.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> Do you think you\u2019ll be able to take it to the next level with her?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> Yeah, no doubt. She has what it takes. You could see it when she was sparring Ryan Garcia. She was trying to knock his head off. You could tell something was different. She\u2019s a nice woman, she trains hard, and she\u2019s got star quality.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> She also knows how to cut through the noise on social media. AllHipHop has covered her for years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> That\u2019s wild. When we did the signing, you would\u2019ve thought I signed Michelle Obama. Everybody was losing it. Not many people have that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> I wouldn\u2019t be doing my job if I didn\u2019t bring this up. Blueface has a fight coming up too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> Yeah, he\u2019s fighting Swaggy P. He fought on our platform before. My brother\u2019s bare-knuckle promotion organized a boxing match for them. There was a fight that didn\u2019t happen because COVID messed it up.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> I didn\u2019t know that. That\u2019s interesting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> You\u2019ve done a lot of fights. What\u2019s your favorite celebrity fight?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> It has to be Lamar Odom versus Aaron Carter. Ice-T hosted it, Kid Chocolate refereed it. It was right after the pandemic. It felt like the revival of Celebrity Boxing. I was in the right place at the right time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> Tell people some of the other fights you\u2019ve put together.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong><br \/>Everybody. Vanilla Ice fought Todd Bridges. William \u201cThe Refrigerator\u201d Perry. Manute Bol. Lamar Odom. Aaron Carter. Blac Chyna. If you had your fifteen minutes of fame, you probably fought for me. Benzino fought for me. Peter Gunz fought Cisco Rosado. Rich Dollaz refereed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> There was one fight I didn\u2019t like. That virtual one.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> The Roy Jones metaverse fight. Shout out to <a href=\"https:\/\/allhiphop.com\/tag\/ndo-champ\/#google_vignette\">NDO Champ<\/a>. We were pitched the first AI metaverse match. We tried it. It was just before its time. The fighters actually fought in the gym and it was turned into a virtual experience. It didn\u2019t land how we wanted, but we tried.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> Still cool footage though.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> Yeah, and we still have it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> Give me your top five boxers of all time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> Mike Tyson. Floyd Mayweather. Muhammad Ali. Bernard Hopkins. Roy Jones Jr.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> Philly needs a Bernard Hopkins statue.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> Absolutely. The Executioner. We trained together at Champs Gym in North Philly. He showed you never quit. He\u2019s a hero.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AllHipHop:<\/strong> A lot of people try to do what you do.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-attachment-id=\"6125115\" src=\"https:\/\/allhiphop.com\/features\/chrisean-rocks-boxing-promoter-damon-feldman-talks-blueface-xrumble-celebrity-boxing\/attachment\/img_4734\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?fit=2560%2C1920&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1920\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.9&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 14 Pro Max&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1769782588&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;2.69&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.033333333333333&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_4734\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?fit=400%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?fit=640%2C480&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6125115\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?resize=837%2C628&amp;ssl=1 837w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?resize=400%2C300&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?resize=170%2C128&amp;ssl=1 170w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?resize=1536%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?resize=2048%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?resize=1240%2C930&amp;ssl=1 1240w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?resize=640%2C480&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?resize=1%2C1&amp;ssl=1 1w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_4734-scaled.jpeg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Damon Feldman:<\/strong> They do.
