Damon Feldman has made good on his threat to sue Farrah Abraham over the boxing match she backed out of last month.
The Celebrity Boxing promoter has reportedly filed a lawsuit against the former Teen Mom OG star, and, according to TMZ is seeking damages of $12,000. (This is, of course, an amount far less than the “millions of dollars” Damon had originally threatened to sue Farrah for.)
The Ashley reached out to Damon for comment on the lawsuit, and he was more than happy to explain why he is suing Farrah.
“I have to destroy her,” Damon told The Ashley. “She stole my money and sponsors and falsely said she was fighting and took people’s money.”
As The Ashley previously reported, Farrah backed out of the much-promoted Atlantic City boxing match against Nicole “Hoopz” Alexander, stating that Damon and the fight’s promoters failed to fulfill the terms of their contract. According to Damon, Farrah quit the fight because Damon wouldn’t allow the match to be fixed in Farrah’s favor, as Damon claims Farrah demanded. (Both sides have denied the other’s claims.)
In a recent interview with CeleBuzz, Damon explained what else Farrah was allegedly demanding.
“We paid her in advance, got her money, met her in Florida, and she pulled out,” he said. “Everything was good to start-— I signed her up with training, we set up a press conference, then she started making these ridiculous demands.
“We signed an agreement, then she sent a second contract saying that she had to win the match,” Damon added. “The week of [the fight], she asked for 36 hotel rooms, six first-class flight tickets, just abnormal stuff.”
Last month, Damon offered to forgo suing Farrah— if she would agree to box Teen Mom 2 star Kail Lowry. Farrah’s father Michael Abraham told The Ashley that this match– or any match that included Farrah fighting for Damon’s company– would never happen.
“Farrah’s not going to fight anybody, period, anymore,” Michael told The Ashley earlier this month. “[Damon] had an opportunity he messed up, he lied.”
Damon told The Ashley that the promotion Farrah received from the boxing match helped revive her career.
“She was done,” Damon said. “I gave her her 16th minute [of fame]. She thinks it’s a joke. It’s only the start. She is a zero.”
It does not appear that Farrah is worried about the lawsuit. Her manager, David Weintraub, released a statement to TMZ after Damon filed his lawsuit.
“We are truly wishing Damon the best with his frivolous lawsuit,” David stated. “Everyone must realize this guy broke his own contract with us and runs this ‘so called’ business out of his studio apartment and doing ‘basement style event fights’ that no one watches.
“He should work a little harder to pay for travel/accommodations for the talent and team and then perhaps the talent will actually come. Get ready for the counter suit from Farrah.”
The Ashley has reached out to Farrah and her team for comment on this story.

Hoopz is an athlete and very fit. Nobody would have believed that Farrah actually beat her.
Right?! This was most apparent when watching the promo vids each of them posted with their trainers. Hoopz was putting everything into her punches, and her trainer had put put real effort into keeping the block up.
By contrast Farrah seemed more focused on her camera angles. Every punch was slow and weak. This was clearly not something that she took seriously.
Damon got “engaged” to Octomom after her “celebrity” boxing match. I can’t root for either side in this one…they are both trashy self-promoting idiots.
Two low life thugs looking for some words on them. No one cares!
Didn’t they pay Farrah more than $12K for the fight?
I agree that Farah is a zero, I think most of us wish she would just go away. Nobody likes her or her kid.
I am all for destroying Farrah but $12,000? That’s probably only one yacht trick for her.
I thought that was a low amount too, but that’s probably really all that he was out – it’s easier to win a suit when you ask for what you should actually get instead of being all “dramatical” and asking for millions.
Just because this is being reported on TMZ doesn’t make it a major suit – it’s a simple breach of contract with very little damages.
If she settles, it will be $12,000 (one yacht trick). If it goes to trial and she has to pay legal fees, too, it will be two yacht tricks. 🙂
“I have to destrot her”…what a childish looser…
I mean destroy..
No farrah fan but, when Dorito was made the ref, thats when it was ok for farrah to back out.
Good!!
And Did anybody watch her on “ex on the beach?” Holy SHIT, she is insufferable. There’s no way I can watch that garbage with her bitching and complaining constantly on it. “I’m the biggest star here.”
She really thinks she’s better than everyone and it’s so sad.
She lives in Farrahland on a planet that has not been discovered
Maybe it was from aware, but when they got up close, they realized it should be abandoned..
I watched it and as usual she was her narcissistic self ! I won’t be watching anymore episodes !
Will she be proceeding pro se? Writing her own briefs, no lawyer involved? I might just have to send the judge a case of Everclear and a box of stress toys.
I am 1000% here for this. I was busy laughing while she slowly destroys herself, but if this guy can expedite the process, he at least has everyone on the planet rooting for him to win. I can’t wait to see how this plays out. It’s about damn time someone holds this idiot accountable.
I get the feeling we’re about to start getting stories about how Farrah is broke and the victim of bullying soon? Losing that MTV check is really hurting her
Please take her down a notch or 1000 if that is possible. So tired of these lowlifes from teen mom just thinking that the law doesnt apply to them. Ugh. Pathetic. Anyways…. Happy Holidays everyone!!! And to @theashley!! Thanks for cracking me up on the regular. Best recaps on the internet.
What “talent” exactly was Farrah bringing to this fight? Her lawyer sounds just like her ?
She deserves to be brought down
This is still a topic of discussion??? Damon, sue her and shut up about it already! You should’ve known what you were getting yourself into with this piece of trash. She’s unreliable and 100% a lunatic.
Very true… now hes just being a publicity whore
