Ghanaian Hip-hop star, Sakodie, has playfully expressed his intention to test his boxing skills at the Bukom Boxing Arena in a Royal Rumble match style with dancehall musician, Shatta Wale.
The challenge was made during a recent trip to the Arena to watch some boxing bouts.
Sarkodie, who was asked to deliver a verdict on what he had witnessed so far, expressed his happiness to be there and promised to return to watch more bouts going forward.
However, it was his challenge to Shatta Wale that caught the attention of many. “You can arrange a boxing fight between myself and Shatta Wale to confirm this,” he said full of mirth
Known for their lyrical prowess and energetic stage performance, Sarkodie and Shatta Wale’s celebrity boxing match would undoubtedly attract a lot of attention from their fans, and it would be interesting to see who would come out on top.
The two who settled their rift with a performance at Sarkodie’s Black Love concert in 2020 could ignite a new rivalry with a boxing match.
Recall that the two had been at loggerheads for a while, and their beef took over from the Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy feud, which was squashed in 2019 after the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards brawl.
Sarkodie and Shatta Wale threw jabs at each other in their songs, social media posts, and interviews, till the matter was settled but it remains to be seen whether Shatta Wale will take up the challenge.
