After the third round, Nigerian street-pop artist Habeeb Badmus, aka Portable, was announced as the winner of the celebrity boxing fight against Nollywood actor Charles Okocha on Wednesday.
The fight, which was sanctioned by Heritage Boxing Entertainment, held at Landmark Beach in Victoria Island, Lagos State, kickstarted past 1 am and lasted for about 40 minutes.
The pair had finally settled their scores with their fists after Portable alleged contractual issues, which led them to engage in an online feud over an alleged N40m rip-off.
Portable claimed Okocha cheated him out of the money, only sending him a small amount, contrary to a contractual agreement.
