“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.
The challenge comes months after another controversial boxing encounter involving Speed Darlington and singer Portable.

In April, Portable claimed that Burna Boy gifted him N20 million after he defeated Speed Darlington in a boxing match.
Portable alleged that Burna Boy gave him the money because he had beaten Speed Darlington, who had repeatedly mocked the Grammy-winning singer and made allegations about his relationship with embattled American rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs and the circumstances surrounding Burna Boy’s Grammy award.
