Speaking exclusively to Briefly News, Njilo said he is eyeing Naakmusiq's belt and will stop at nothing to get it.

"Yes, NaakmusiQ won the Celeb City boxing belt from Cassper, but I want that belt. NaakmusiQ will be a very tough fight for me, but I believe I can knock him out in 3 rounds. Also, people must know that I’m not a professional boxer; I’ve never had a professional fight before; I just do exhibition fights."

Should NaakmusiQ agree to fight Njilo, it would be his third boxing match after winning the first two matches.

Phumlani wins 2nd boxing match

Njilo said Pholoso put in a good fight and surprised him with his blows. He would like to see him challenge Priddy Ugly, who lost his match against Cassper Nyovest in 2023.

His very first match was with Inkabi Records owner Big Zulu, where he won the game, which took place at the Olive Convention Centre in Durban.

"Big Zulu was three weight divisions heavier than me, so I couldn’t showcase my fighting skills properly. Pholoso is the same weight as me, so I was more comfortable in the ring. He was definitely tougher than I thought, and I thought it would be an easier fight. I would definitely love to see him in the ring again with someone like Priddy Ugly, who lost against Cassper last time."

Phumlani Njilo stated that he rigorously works hard at the gym, making him a formidable opponent. In addition to that, he studies his opponents thoroughly.
