Famous hitmaker NaakMusiq says he almost pulled out of the celebrity boxing match with Cassper Nyovest due to sickness.
A while after their acclaimed boxing match, NaakMusiq has finally opened up about what went down before the match. He shared in a conversation with Mo Flava on 947, that he fell seriously ill and asked to have the match postponed. However, Cassper’s team declined his request and went ahead with it.
He said, “Six weeks before the fight, I got a chest infection. The doctor said, ‘You cannot do any training for the next four weeks.'”
“We called the opposing team and asked ‘Is there any way we can move this thing because when this guy is deemed fit to train, he’ll only have two weeks to do so.’ And we just got a big, fat NO.”
However, he decided to consult his trainer and went ahead with the match.
“He said, ‘There’s no way you’re gonna be fit in 10 days; just try your best to remember everything we’ve learned and use your heart.”
Naak ended up teaching Cass a lesson.
“I was fitter than what I appeared in the ring, and I was surprised that Cassper was huffing and puffing, considering that he did not have a chest infection.”
