Nigerian music star Speed Darlington has thrown down a challenge to Burna Boy, daring him to fight in a boxing ring and promising to put up serious money for the match.
In a recent interview, Speed Darlington said he wants to go head-to-head with Burna Boy and insisted he would beat him.
He dismissed the Grammy-winning artist as all hype, saying popularity in music doesn't mean he can win a fight.
The challenge comes after Portable claimed Burna Boy gave him 20 million naira for defeating Speed Darlington in a boxing match back in April.
Portable said Burna Boy rewarded him because Speed Darlington had been trolling the singer and making allegations about his personal life, including claims linking him to American rapper Diddy in exchange for his Grammy award.
