Nollywood actor Abimbola Kazeem, widely known as Jigan Baba Oja, has sparked fresh conversations after predicting the outcomes of possible celebrity boxing matches involving some of the biggest names in the Nigerian movie industry. His comments come shortly after the highly publicized boxing match between singer Portable and skitmaker Carter Efe, which saw Portable suffer a decisive defeat.
Jigan Predicts Lizzy Anjorin Would Defeat Iyabo Ojo
During a livestream session with social media commentator Tunde Perry, Jigan was asked to weigh in on a hypothetical boxing match between Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham. The actor, famous for his viral Yoruba comedy skit Sho Mo Age Mi Ni?, explained that Funke Akindele possesses remarkable strength, particularly in her left hand, which would give her an advantage over Toyin Abraham. Jigan stated, “Funke’s left punch is crazy. Funke is left-handed. She’s a lefty, and you know that left-handed people have strong and sharp punches that can destroy anything.”
The conversation then shifted to a potential face-off between Iyabo Ojo and Lizzy Anjorin. Jigan described the clash as intense and extreme, recalling his university days at Ogun State University (now Olabisi Onabanjo University), where Lizzy Anjorin was known for her fearless and stubborn nature. He noted that Lizzy often fought men, led groups on campus, and was never afraid to break bottles during confrontations, while Iyabo, in his view, is softer and less aggressive. Jigan elaborated, “Lizzy Anjorin and Iyabo Ojo. Haa, that fight will be tough. It will go far. Lizzy Anjorin was my mate in my university days back in OSU. She was a tout, and a fearless lady back in school day. She’s an area leader in school. Woman leader. I don’t think Iyabo Ojo has a chance against Lizzy. She’s very stubborn, she fights men in school, breaks bottle and all that. Iyabo Ojo is soft, she cannot fight. Maybe if she undergoes a very extensive training, only then maybe she can stand a chance, but I doubt it. Don’t try Lizzy.”
Netizens React to Jigan’s Predictions
The comments quickly drew reactions from social media users. @zlabrich said, “Lizzy go beat iyabo ojo blue black ? Lizzy be ogba, woman leader from day 1 ????? jigan you sabi Lizzy wella ??????????? we love both of them sha.” @pelumi88888 reacted, “Funke wey Dey train almost everyday U wan kill Toyin.” @olori_bewaji commented, “Una dey underrate iyabo ojo bcos she get soft skin???she go shock u??o ma pa lizzy danu.” @kay32042 wrote, “Awon arindin, toyin won't even want to stain her fine skin, make una go rest.” @twinwithme_fabrics_and_style added, “AJE, Lizzy go beat Iyabo Ojo blue black. Lizzy na osu babe ooo.”
