Nigerian singer and social media personality Speed Darlington has stirred fresh controversy after publicly challenging Grammy-winning artiste Burna Boy to a boxing match.
The outspoken entertainer made the challenge during a recent interview with Hip TV, where he declared that he was willing to put a huge sum of money on the proposed bout if Burna Boy accepted.
Speed Darlington, who is known for his bold and often controversial remarks, expressed strong confidence in his ability to emerge victorious.
He insisted that Burna Boy’s fame and musical achievements would not necessarily give him an advantage in a physical contest.
According to him, popularity in the music industry should not be confused with fighting ability, as he maintained that he could defeat the Grammy-winning singer.
The latest challenge adds another chapter to the long-running tension between the two entertainers, whose public exchanges have previously generated significant attention among fans.
Speed Darlington’s call for a boxing match comes amid renewed interest in the rivalry, with the singer appearing determined to settle the matter in the ring rather than through verbal exchanges.
However, Burna Boy has yet to publicly respond to the challenge, leaving fans wondering whether he will accept the proposed bout or ignore it.
For now, it remains uncertain whether the proposed fight will become a reality, but Speed Darlington’s latest statement has already sparked fresh reactions across the entertainment space.
