In the middle of an escalating feud, Soulja Boy and DDG might soon settle their differences with gloves and a ring.
The clash between the two rappers began with allegations against DDG. Soulja Boy accused DDG of violent behavior towards his ex-girlfriend, Halle Bailey. This heated exchange has now pivoted to a challenge for a physical showdown, potentially dragging superstar Drake into the mix.
During a recent livestream with both parties, popular streamer Adin Ross threw in a surprising suggestion. He proposed that Drake could finance the bout, considering Drake’s known interest in boxing and celebrity matches. “Guys, actually knowing Drake, Drake would actually probably pay to make it happen. Dude, I’m not even joking. … Let me cook,” Ross said. Despite Ross’s enthusiasm, Drake has remained silent on the matter.
The verbal tussle saw Soulja Boy taunting DDG with aggressive words, challenging him to prove his boxing skills in the ring. “You know how to fight, right? You a boxer, right? Let’s get in the … ring,” shouted Soulja Boy. DDG, unfazed, responded by mocking Soulja Boy’s past and questioning his sobriety, implying that talk of a fight is nothing more than a drug-induced rant.
DDG, who once fought TikTok personality Nate Wyatt, winning by decision, clearly has some experience in the ring. However, his history of proposed matches hasn’t always played out. A planned fight with rapper PnB Rock was canceled, and another challenge to rapper Toosii over personal issues fizzled out.
The celebrity boxing trend has been a burgeoning scene with artists like Blueface, Benzino, and KSI stepping into the ring. However, whether Drake will involve himself as the financial backer or if this fight will even happen remains to be seen.
In the wild world of celebrity boxing, what started as a feud might soon transform into a spectacle. As fans hold their breath, the question remains: Will Drake step in, or is this just another round of verbal sparring?
