Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, also known as Portable, and Nollywood actor Charles Okocha renewed their feud on Friday following a furious exchange ahead of their much-anticipated celebrity boxing battle in Lagos.

The tense incident occurred during a pre-fight event, when the two celebrities faced off on stage before security intervened to keep the situation from escalating.

Videos from the event, which have since gone viral online, showed Portable and Charles Okocha exchanging insults, standing toe-to-toe and throwing mock punches, while a moderator attempted to keep the discussion focused on the upcoming bout.

Portable expressed confidence that he would emerge victorious once again, insisting he had prepared thoroughly for the contest and would repeat his previous win over the actor.

He declared that he was the man for the job, that he had prepared and would go on to win and fight again, boasting that he would beat Okocha once more.

Okocha, however, brushed off the singer’s verbal jabs, urging him to save his energy for the ring.

He told Portable to reserve his talk for the fight on the 31st, warning him not to disrespect him, insisting he was not on the same level as Portable.

The dramatic face-off quickly drew reactions from fans and celebrities online, with many sharing clips of the confrontation and offering predictions on the outcome of the rematch.

Organisers have confirmed that the boxing event will be streamed live.

The rematch comes months after Portable claimed a unanimous decision victory over Okocha in their first encounter. Following that defeat, the actor invoked the rematch clause, setting up another showdown between the two celebrities.

Popular Nigerian actor Charles Okocha , has responded to Portable after the singer accused him of ripping him off for a show/endorsement in Abuja which he was invited for.

Portable claimed Okocha collected 40 million naira from some promoters and then paid him 5 million which he says is too small compared to how much Okocha got.

He asked Okocha to add more money, calling him a thief for giving him 5 million out of the 40 million.

Reacting to the accusation, Okocha said he was the one who got the deal and only invited Portable as his guest. He said he flew Portable in from Lagos to Abuja and after the promotion, gave him N5,000,000 as his cut.

He said they didn’t sign any agreement so he gave Portable what he deemed fit, as he was the one in charge.  He then warned the singer to stop talking about him, threatening to give him a serious beating if they meet one on one.
