In the latest twist in the ongoing saga between Slim Jxmmi and Hurricane Chris, the two rappers have taken their beef to another level, hinting at a potential boxing match.
Slim Jxmmi, part of the duo Rae Sremmurd, recently shared a video on Instagram, where he confidently showcased his speed and strength on a punching bag. “Whenever you’re ready to box, I’m ready,” he declared, adding a casual, “Your boy stay ready, I ain’t gotta get ready.” This bold statement came alongside a swig of Luc Belaire, setting the stage for what could be a memorable bout.
In the caption of his video, Jxmmi tagged Hurricane Chris and reminded him to start training, emphasizing, “I’m working with @officialbelaire.” This public taunt hasn’t gone unnoticed by Hurricane Chris, who responded with a stern warning on his Instagram, “Now when I sleep him, y’all don’t cry.”
The tension between the two performers heightened last month due to disagreements over the Super Bowl halftime show selections. Hurricane Chris voiced his disapproval over Kendrick Lamar being picked over New Orleans local Lil Wayne, leading Slim Jxmmi to chime in on social media. This prompted Chris to challenge Jxmmi with the phrase, “mind yo business unless you wanna see these hands.”
Despite the escalating war of words, no official boxing match has been arranged. Slim Jxmmi, who has embraced boxing as a hobby, seems eager to turn these heated exchanges into a sporting event. However, whether the punches will be thrown inside a ring remains uncertain.
As of now, the battle remains purely verbal, but the playful insults and challenges have caught the attention of fans. Whether or not it leads to an actual fight, the rivalry between Slim Jxmmi and Hurricane Chris is heating up—and promises to entertain.
