The long-running feud between Speed Darlington and Burna Boy just took a physical turn. The outspoken entertainer has publicly challenged Burna Boy to a boxing match, and AfrobeatsGlobal has the full story.
Speed Darlington Says He Can Beat Burna Boy
Speaking during a recent interview with Hip TV, Speed Darlington insisted he was confident of defeating the Grammy-winning singer in the ring. He also offered to stake a huge sum of money if Burna Boy accepted the challenge.
“I challenge Burna Boy to fight me. I will drop a huge sum just to fight him. I want to fight him. I will beat him. He’s all hype. He can’t beat me. Just because some people like his music doesn’t mean he can beat me. I am challenging him,” he said.
He dismissed the idea that Burna Boy’s popularity would offer any advantage in a physical contest.
The Challenge Follows a Long-Running Feud
This is not the first time Speed Darlington has taken aim at Burna Boy. The two have clashed publicly for years, and the tension previously escalated after Burna Boy’s camp took legal action against him.
The latest challenge also comes months after singer Portable claimed he had defeated Speed Darlington in an earlier celebrity boxing match, reportedly earning a financial reward from Burna Boy afterward.
Will Burna Boy Respond?
There is currently no indication that Burna Boy has accepted the proposed bout. AfrobeatsGlobal will continue monitoring the situation for any official response from his camp.
