Cape Town – With celebrity matches growing in popularity, fans of Cassper Nyovest and Priddy Ugly will be bursting with excitement, as the two celebrities go back and forth with verbal assault ahead of their fight on October 1, at the Sun Bet Arena in Pretoria.
Despite Nyovest confirming that sponsors and TV partners – including SuerSport – have pulled out of the fight, the bout will still go ahead in front of a live audience.
Good news & bad news. The bad news is that we lost SS as a partner so the fight isn’t showing on TV. The good news is that tickets are still available at web tickets. If you wanna see the fight you can come see it live next week Saturday. Buy tickets here:https://t.co/IJwMb0PyXz
