Chris Brown Backs Out of Fight with Soulja Boy

It appears that the much-anticipated fight between Chris Brown and Soulja Boy is officially a no-go.

Breezy posted a video to Instagram today (Feb. 21) explaining that he decided to bow out because too many people had gotten in the way.

“I’m bowing out of this Soulja Boy fight,” Brown said in the video. “I’ma tell you why, because it was a legit thing on a positive scale. All the wrong people got in the way. The middle man people got in the way. The homies, so to speak, got in the way cause they wanna get a piece of the pie. It’s immature, first and foremost. Second of all, ain’t no nigga gon’ ever hold me up. So, however everything goes, this how we rock. He gon’ see me, he gon’ see me. I ain’t out here moving, nothing crazy. But just don’t believe all that bullshit.”

Shortly after, a video surfaced of SB taunting CB, saying “I don’t give a fuck if you didn’t sign the contract. When I see you, I’mma slap this shit out you, nigga. Cause you a bitch, nigga. You call my phone talking about a bitch. And you call my phone talking about a bitch, talking about why I’m liking Karrueche’s pictures? You gone beat me up and shit and your bitch ass gone say ‘set up a boxing match. I signed my paperwork three weeks ago, nigga!”

Speaking of Brown’s ex-girlfriend, Karrueche Tran recently obtained a restraining order against Brown, after filing legal documents stating he tried to kill her and physically abused her in the past.

Leading up to the news of Brown’s backing out, SB went on a Twitter rant Sunday, as the fight was still in the air.
