Carter made the declaration during a heated face-off with Speed Darlington ahead of their much-anticipated celebrity boxing bout, which is set to take place at the Federal Palace Hotel in Lagos.
During the confrontation, Speed Darlington was heard issuing a warning to Carter, saying, “Na beating I go use beat you.”
Carter, however, fired back by questioning Speed’s decision to remain close to a bouncer and challenged him to confront him without security personnel around.
“Why you dey run follow bouncer? Make bouncer leave the two of us. I wan show you say I be 24-year-old boy,” Carter said.
Speaking with Hip TV ahead of the bout, Carter also dismissed any suggestion that Speed Darlington could reveal embarrassing information about him.
“Speed Darlington can never expose me. I’m the one with people’s secrets,” he said.
Carter further revealed that Speed Darlington’s alleged remarks about Nigerian music star Burna Boy have become a major source of motivation for him ahead of the fight.
“The major reason I want to beat Speed Darlington is because he called Burna Boy gay. How can he be saying it to a big artiste like that? If I don’t stop him, he’ll say it to Davido too,” Carter said.
The content creator made it clear that he is not simply aiming for a victory, stating, “I want to beat Speed to embarrassment.”
The celebrity boxing match, tagged ‘Chaos in the Ring’, is scheduled to hold on October 1 at the Federal Palace Hotel in Lagos.
