Nigerian rapper Speed Darlington has expressed his desire to face Grammy-winning singer Burna Boy in a boxing match after his proposed bout with skit maker Carter Efe.
The rapper said he hopes a fight with Burna Boy can be arranged once his proposed encounter with Carter Efe is over, linking his desire for the matchup to the anger he says he has continued to carry over his previous arrest.
What Speed Darlington Wants
Speed Darlington made the comments during an interview with Nevo Media, where he discussed the possibility of facing Burna Boy in the boxing ring.
According to the rapper, he wants Burna Boy to become his next opponent after the proposed Carter Efe bout.
He said such a fight would give him an opportunity to release the anger he has been carrying over the dispute between them.
Speed Darlington also described a potential encounter with Burna Boy as something that would make the year particularly memorable for him.
Why He Wants To Face Burna Boy
The rapper linked his desire to confront Burna Boy to what he described as the singer’s involvement in his previous arrest.
Speed Darlington said the experience left him with anger that he has not been able to let go of.
He maintained that entering the boxing ring with Burna Boy would provide an opportunity to confront him directly.
However, the claim about Burna Boy’s role in the arrest is Speed Darlington’s account as presented in the interview material. The supplied material does not independently establish the circumstances of the arrest or provide a response from Burna Boy to the latest comments.
Speed Darlington’s Account Of The Arrest
Explaining why he continues to hold the position, Speed Darlington alleged that Burna Boy was responsible for having him detained.
He said:
“He had me locked up, that’s what he did to me. That’s the deal, I can’t forgive that.”
The rapper’s comments connect the proposed boxing encounter to the unresolved dispute he says has existed between the two entertainers.
No response from Burna Boy to these latest remarks was provided in the source material.
“Enemies For Life”
Speed Darlington made clear that he does not regard a potential boxing match as something that would automatically settle their differences.
Instead, he said the rivalry would continue even if the two eventually met inside the ring.
He said:
“The plan is after I finish with the Carter Efe, I hope they can make it happen. I want Burna Boy next so I can offload all my anger on him. That would be sweet, that would be the highlight of this year.”
He added:
“Even after the fight, we are still enemies for life.”
The remarks indicate that, from Speed Darlington’s stated perspective, the proposed fight would be an outlet for his anger rather than a resolution of the disagreement.
The Proposed Fight In Context
Speed Darlington’s immediate boxing plans involve a proposed bout with Carter Efe, after which he said he would like Burna Boy to become his next opponent.
The source material, however, does not establish that a Burna Boy fight has been officially arranged.
His comments therefore represent a stated desire for such a matchup rather than confirmation that the bout will take place.
Burna Boy’s Position
The latest comments in the supplied material come from Speed Darlington.
The material does not contain a response from Burna Boy addressing the proposed boxing match, the arrest allegation or Speed Darlington’s statement that they remain enemies.
As a result, Burna Boy’s position on the latest remarks cannot be established from the information provided.
Final Story Wrap-Up
