She said:
"Let's fight Tiwa Savage and me. Mummy, I will beat you till you enter bush. Me that's is angry, I wouldn't even look at Jamal's face. I will cut my eyes. One, one billion. How much them dey buy all these cars? If they pay us N1.5 billion, can I buy a Bugatti? Make we first start from there. Mama, make we fight. Tiwa, I beat you, then sing 'My Darling' for you."
The comedic twist at the end, where Teni promised to perform a love song for Tiwa after knocking her out, summed up the energy perfectly.
Tiwa Savage responds
What turned the joke into a full-blown conversation was Tiwa's reaction. Rather than brush it off, the "Somebody's Son" singer headed straight to the comment section and wrote: "Pick a date."
The response sent fans into a frenzy, with many treating it as an unofficial confirmation that both women were at least willing to entertain the idea.
The playful challenge arrives in the wake of a real celebrity boxing event that had Nigerian social media talking. BBNaija reality star Phyna squared off against actress Nkechi Blessing in an actual boxing match, suggesting appetite for celebrity bouts in Nigeria is very much alive.

Whether Teni and Tiwa's ring rivalry stays a joke or turns into something more remains to be seen, but for now, the date is very much up for grabs.
