Street-pop singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, lost his celebrity boxing rematch against Nollywood actor Charles Okocha by disqualification on Friday after walking out of the ring before the end of the opening round at the Balmoral Convention Centre, Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos.
The bout, tagged “Unfinished Business,” was organised as a rematch of their controversial first encounter, which Mr Okocha had insisted was unfairly awarded in Portable’s favour.
Portable appeared to have the upper hand before the contest descended into a wrestling-like scuffle, with the referee struggling to separate both fighters.
The bell was eventually rung to end the round, while security personnel and bodyguards intervened to restore order.
Amid the commotion, Portable stormed out of the ring before officials could resume the contest, drawing boos from spectators, including fans in the VIP section who had attended the highly anticipated clash.
Although he was persuaded to return to the ring, officials subsequently disqualified him, handing victory to Mr Okocha.
Singer reacts before fight
Speaking backstage before the bout while holding his son, Portable said, “I am not happy, but I want God to make me happy and my family.”
The defeat marks a reversal of fortunes for the singer, who won their first encounter and had boasted during the final weigh-in that he remained the better fighter.

Okay… ‘ugliest mustang’ being a keyword associated with Cassino222 is… interesting. I’m not sure what that’s about, but I guess check out ugliest mustang if you’re curious. Maybe there’s a slot game with an ugly Mustang theme Who knows!

Just wanted to share how impressed I am with the recent interface overhaul. Navigation is intuitive and I can switch between live casino and slots in one tap. Payout requests get confirmed within hours and the support chat stays polite even during peak hours. Consistently top notch experience. idepicwin138
