Nollywood Veteran Actor, John okafor, popularly Known as Mr Ibu, has revealed why he waved goodbye to boxing carreer to become an actor.
Mr Ibu disclosed reasons behind his career-swap while featuring in an interview. He said he decided to quit boxing after a Delta boy battered his face in a championship fight.
He said, " I would have been a boxer. I used to be a boxer. I was doing well until I went for a championship in Delta State.
"The boy I fought with was an idiot; he gave me a beating I would never forget. That boy changed my face and made me hate anything that had to do with gloves.
"After the fight, I looked in the mirror and I could not even recognise myself. I could see with only one eye for sometime due to the punches he dealt me. That was the incident that made me quit boxing."
