Street-pop singer Portable loses his celebrity boxing rematch to Nollywood actor Charles Okocha in Lagos after walking out of the ring during the opening round. Multiple outlets report the bout takes place at the Balmoral Convention Centre, Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, under the “Chaos in the Ring” event banner. Portable’s decision to quit leads to his disqualification, and the fight ends in a chaotic manner.
After the match, Portable publicly apologises to fans and the event organisers for abandoning the bout. In a separate account, he explains he walked out because he says he was subjected to unfair treatment during the fight, including claims of attacks such as biting and wrestling. Other coverage also describes the incident’s fallout, including Portable responding to the outcome with diss content. His management issues a statement after the defeat, saying he plans a stronger comeback.
Across reports, the central points are consistent: Portable is disqualified following a ring walkout, Okocha is declared the winner, and Portable later acknowledges the incident and offers apologies.
