Singer Krg The Don and social commentator Andrew Kibe have announced the date for their highly anticipated boxing match. The bout is set for August 10 at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC).
The rivalry between Krg and Kibe has been brewing ever since they declared their intention to face each other in the ring. Krg has been hitting the gym hard, focusing on building muscle and preparing for the showdown. He issued a stern warning to Kibe, saying, “Jipange mzee Kibe, wewe tarehe kumi mambo itakuwa mbaya sana” (“Get ready, old man Kibe, things will get bad on the 10th”).
Kibe, on the other hand, has mocked Krg, suggesting the fight should be a mixed martial arts (MMA) bout. “I’m thinking of changing it to MMA so that I can really give him a proper beating. The lesson about to be taught here will never be forgotten,” he said.
The two online personalities have been trading barbs since 2023, when Kibe frequently criticized Krg in his videos, commenting on the singer’s lifestyle. Krg responded by challenging Kibe to a face-to-face confrontation should he return to Kenya.
This match places Krg and Kibe among a number of international celebrities who have stepped into the ring. In 2009, Kim Kardashian participated in a celebrity boxing match for charity. In 2012, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau thrilled fans with his boxing skills. In 2016, Idris Elba impressed viewers by documenting his year-long training in Thailand for a boxing match on the Discovery UK series.
With the date set and the tension building, the Krg-Kibe boxing match promises to be an exciting event for their fans and followers.
