Popular social media activist VeryDarkMan has lashed out at music executive Soso Soberekon, accusing him of disrespect over a boxing match proposal.
The drama began after Soso reportedly offered ₦120 million for a celebrity boxing match between VeryDarkMan and controversial singer Portable. However, VDM wasn’t having it.
In a video posted on Instagram, the activist strongly rejected the offer, describing it as an insult to his value. He referenced a previous deal from 2024, where he allegedly turned down $100,000 to fight American rapper 50 Cent, demanding $1 million instead.
“Alright, so make I quickly respond to Soso Soberekon for this disrespect. What I’m about to say now, you confirm it from Tunde Ednut because my phone is with EFCC. So last year I was supposed to have the biggest event in Africa.
“It was a fight between myself and 50 Cent. You can confirm from the president of the boxing federation, Omo-Agege. Tunde Ednut was following the process but it didn’t work from my side. First thing, 50 Cent was requesting for 2 million dollars upfront from his complete payment of 5 million dollars. They now said they want to pay me 100,000 dollars, and I said no it won’t work. I said if 50 Cent is going to take 5 million dollars then I will collect 1 million dollars.
“Early this year again after I came back from China, they brought another offer but the money wey them still they talk no dey reasonable. So, you see where the level dey? It didn’t work because I’m not going to take one kind low thing to go and be on the ring, I know my worth.
“Now, let’s go back to Soso Berekon. It is disrespectful to say you won carry me now go fight for as low as N100 million. Do you know how much I don take do charity this period? What is N100 million? If you want to insult me, just tell me waka.
“N100 million cannot even buy you a good house in Abuja. Soso you are very very disrespectful, forget about age. So, if you want me to fight, you go bring 500,000 dollar first before I can sit together with you to discuss the balance, but I doubt if you get that kind of money. If dem dey respect you respect yourself Soso. If you don’t have that money I talk please don’t put my name on your page again.”
The online feud has sparked widespread reactions, with fans taking sides in what could have been one of the most talked-about celebrity boxing events in Nigeria.
