Nollywood actor Charles Okocha has defeated street-pop singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, in a dramatic celebrity boxing rematch that ended abruptly after the opening round in Lagos.
The much-anticipated bout, tagged “Unfinished Business,” was held on Friday, July 31, 2026, at the Balmoral Convention Centre, Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, as part of the Chaos in the Ring franchise.
The contest quickly descended into chaos after both men exchanged punches before Portable grabbed Okocha and took him to the canvas.
Amid the commotion, Portable stormed out of the ring before the officials could resume the contest, drawing boos from spectators, including fans in the VIP section who had turned out for the highly anticipated clash.
Although he was persuaded to return to the ring, officials subsequently disqualified him, handing Okocha victory.
Speaking backstage before the fight while holding his son, Portable had 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.
