Initially, E-Money was not interested in the sport, but after getting involved, he has come to see it as the next big thing in entertainment. He further hinted at a major boxing event to be held in December, featuring top celebrities, though he has not disclosed their names yet. E-Money is also looking for an opponent to fight himself and is open to suggestions.
