After much hype, controversial artiste, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable and Nollywood actor Charles Okocha aka Igwe Tupac, locked horns in a celebrity boxing match with Portable emerging victorious.
The celebrity bout took place on Wednesday at Landmark Beach in Victoria Island, Lagos.
Portable won the fight after the fourth round.
The match which kickstarted around 1am saw the ‘Zazuu Zeh’ crooner in his blue armless shirt and shorts, pouncing on Okocha. Several punches were delivered at the actor who made futile attempts to dodge the jabs.
After the fourth round, the Zeh Nation boss was announced as the winner in the match which lasted for about 40 minutes.
A video making the rounds online captures the singer happily showing off his championship belt and being hailed by his supporters who crowded the venue.
Daily Trust reports that the boxing match was fixed as a way of settling a monetary dispute after Portable accused the Nollywood actor of cheating him out of a deal worth N40million.
Okocha claimed the singer did nothing at the event, arguing that no agreements were signed. He added that he “transferred a whopping N5million” to Portable after the event.
The pair resolved to settle their scores with a ring fight after a lengthy online spat.
