Portable vs Okocha celebrity boxing fight

Nigerian street-pop artist Habeeb Badmus, aka Portable, and Nollywood actor Charles Okocha, are set to clash in the ring tonight at the Landmark Beach in Victoria Island, Lagos State.

The pair look to resolve their alleged contractual issues with their fists after they have been engaged 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.

They have, therefore, agreed to settle their differences in a boxing match scheduled for Boxing Day with Heritage Boxing Entertainment sanctioning the bout.

Ahead of the Tuesday night fight, both entertainers clashed severally during a press conference, exchanging insults and threats.

“The belt is mine, I am the owner, and I will beat him. This is not about English, I will use my punch to beat you.

“I am going to take this belt on the 26th and I will take it to Sango and show everyone at home. If you want to start it here, we will start it here, I am ready for you,” Portable said.

Okocha responded promising to knockout the ‘Zazu’ crooner saying, “Bring it on, I am going to knock you out to sleep.”
