All of Mzansi is excited for the upcoming boxing match, set to be the biggest we have seen in a while. And as Cassper Nyovest warms up to fight Slik Talk, the YouTuber has issued Cass with a final warning.
Controversial YouTuber Slik Talk has been picking fights with every single celebrity in Mzansi. He insulted Kamo Mphela, body shaming her and calling her talentless. And although he eventually took it all back and apologized, the vicious things he said still live rent free in many fans' minds.

He has also insulted countless other ZAlebs, including Minnie Dlamini, Amanda du Pont and Dj Maphorisa. There is no known criteria for how he decides who to attack; he just insults them unprovoked.
But he may have punched above his weight - no pun intended - when he went after Cassper. He called the rapper insecure and said he acts like a teenage girl, who constantly thinks people are ganging up against him. He told him to grow up and stop being paranoid.
As you can expect, these words did not go down well with Cass, who challenged Slik Talk to a physical fight. If he can sit behind a camera and talk smack, he has to be able to defend himself in a physical fight.
To make the deal sweeter, Cassper offered the YouTuber R100K if he lasts 3 rounds in the ring, and R200K if he knocks him out. In response, Slik Talk accepted the challenge, putting up a wager of his own. If he wins, he will take the money. But if he loses, he will never talk about Cassper again.
Naturally, it has all been very exciting to fans from both sides of the divide as they root for their fighter. And now, as the country counts down the hours to the legendary match, Slik Talk has offered Cassper one last chance to back out of the fight.

Tweeps are wondering whether it is a sign that he is getting cold feet suddenly. He has told Cassper that it is not too late to call it off, and promised to forget about it all and act like it never happened.
But considering he is the first to offer an out, could it mean he has realised he bit off more than he can chew. Cassper has been gearing up for the fight, even mentioning it as one item on a long list of commitments he has, as though it will be any other errand for him. You know, like pick up groceries, fight Slik Talk, get a haircut.

Perhaps Slik has realised that the fight will be unmatched and he would do too much damage to Cass, which is certainly an interesting prospect. Of course Slik Talk's fans are willing to bet on this as the right analysis.
Either way, we are all excited to see how it plays out. With both sides bragging about their prowess in the ring, it will be fun to see who is all bark and who is all bite.
