After exchanging insults via social media, Gillie Da Kid and Soulja Boy have been offered $1 million to fight in a boxing match. Gillie Da Kid has accepted the offer.
“I’m ready,” Gillie Da Kid says during an interview with Who?Mag TV that is premiering on HipHopDX. "I’m gonna beat the breaks off this nigga. I would’a be the breaks off you for free, nigga. I was gonna beat the breaks off you for free, but now I’m getting a check. This the easiest money I ever got in my life.”
The rift between the two rappers stems from when Gillie made an Instagram post mocking Soulja's recent transgressions regarding jewelry he owns that may be fake. "N I Got 1 N I'm Lookin 4 U Niggaz!!!! #HideNseek #Ctfuuu #ImaCatchUniggaz #souljaboyassniggaz ," was the caption of the post that originally caught the Chicago native's attention. He then retaliated with a tweet saying he'd "slap the shit" out of Gillie.
On August 11, Soulja Boy sent a series of Tweets threatening Gillie Da Kid. The tweets have since been removed, but a screenshot of some of the tweets is below.
In the Who?Mag TV video in which he accepts the $1 million purse to fight Soulja Boy, which would net the winner $750,000 and the loser $250,000, Gilie Da Kid says he doesn’t care if Floyd Mayweather, Sr. trained Soulja Boy.
“I don’t give a fuck who you get to train you, boy,” Gillie Da Kid says. "That ain’t gonna help you. Do you realize that training don’t mean nothing when there’s another grown man standing in front of you throwing bombs? Hurry up and sign this contract, boy, so I can beat the brakes off your pussy-ass."
