Even if it is still a rumor, we are getting closer to Act 3 of the Modou Lô-Balla Gaye 2 duel. After having dismissed Tapha Tine and Sa Thiès, the King of the Arena is “forced” to make a choice between Balla Gaye 2 and Reug Reug by the end of this week (between Thursday and Friday), assures his godfather, Birame Gningue.
The rumor invaded social networks. The king of the arenas, Modou Lô, would be ready for a third duel against Balla Gaye 2. Moreover, according to the information relayed on the web, the Roc des Parcelles Assainies has already given his agreement to face the son of Double Less. Wrestling fans who dreamed of a thrilling clash will still have to be patient. “ We learned, like everyone else, this information according to which Modou Lô would have given his agreement for a fight against Balla Gaye 2. As far as I am concerned, Modou and I never talked about it, especially since it I am the one who receives the proposals from the promoters. Since his fight against Siteu, we haven’t discussed wrestling », Specifies Birame Gningue, the godfather of Parcellois, quoted by L’Observateur.

However, he lets it be known that several promoters are vying for this possible third confrontation between the two giants of the arena. “ Indeed, I have been contacted by almost all the promoters, and most want to organize the Modou Lô-Balla Gaye 2 fight. Others have proposed Reug Reug, Sa Thiès, Tapha Tine, and even Siteu. But so far no decision has been made. Within 48 hours, I will meet Modou and submit all the proposals to him. By Thursday or Friday, we could agree on our next opponent », suggested Birame Gningue in a statement taken up by L’Observateur.
On the roof of the National Arena for five years, Modou Lô continues his rise. Winner of Siteu, he remains waiting for his next opponent. Among the potential contenders, Reug Reug is among the wrestlers best placed to cross his path. However, the “Foudre de Thiaroye-sur-Mer” is already engaged on two fronts: it will have to face respectively Boy Niang 2 (January 1, 2025) and Ama Baldé (June 22, 2025).

For his part, Modou Lô said he wanted to extend the pole to young wrestlers who have proven themselves, while excluding from his plans revenge or fights already fought. “Modou Lô had set himself the objective of fighting three fights before retiring. But he showed a willingness to have another fight before calling it quits for good. Now, after giving the young people a chance, the names of Reug Reug, Tapha Tine, Sa Thiès and Balla Gaye come back to the table”reports L’Observateur.
However, facing Sa Thiès and Tapha Tine seems unlikely, the latter having each suffered a defeat. From now on, the King of Arenas will have to choose between Balla Gaye 2 and Reug Reug. This possibility gives rise to keen competition between developers to raise the stakes. According to L’Observateur, Modou Lô’s response will depend on the financial proposals from the promoters and the issues that will be put on the table.
