Portable claimed Okocha cheated him out of the money, only sending him a small amount, contrary to a contractual agreement.

To resolve their issues, they have consequently decided to fight on Boxing Day, with Heritage Boxing Entertainment serving as the sanctioning organization.

Before their Tuesday night bout, the performers sparred multiple times at a press conference, hurling taunts and threats at each other.

Portable pledged to win the boxing match at the meeting. He said, “The belt is mine, I am the owner, and I will beat him. This is not about English, I will use my punch to beat you.

“I am going to take this belt on the 26th and I will take it to Sango and show everyone at home. If you want to start it here, we will start it here, I am ready for you.”.

When the boxing match was analysed, it was evident that Portable was winning because he was able to withstand the more potent blows that Charles Okocha was throwing after each round.
