E-Money has said celebrity boxing is gradually taking over Nigeria’s entertainment industry
E-Money, one of the figures behind the Chaos in the Ring celebrity boxing series, said the sport has attracted growing attention from Nigerians, particularly after entertainers and social media personalities became involved.
Speaking in an interview with Channels Television on Tuesday, he said boxing had previously received little attention in the country before its growing connection with entertainment.
He said celebrity boxing was becoming the next big thing in Nigeria’s entertainment industry, adding that he had developed a strong interest in the sport since becoming involved.
“It is actually taking over the entertainment space.
“Initially in Nigeria, nobody really paid attention to boxing; when you talked about the sport, people would just ignore it—including myself. But when they brought me on board, I got deeply interested. In fact, this is the next big thing in entertainment,” E-Money said.
He also disclosed that another celebrity boxing event would take place in December, featuring some of the country’s top entertainers.
“The next fight is coming up next month in December, and it involves top-tier celebrities”, he added.
