Controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, and his rival Darlington Okoye, aka Speed Darlington, were involved in heated verbal exchanges on Thursday.
The duo have promised a fierce confrontation at the ‘Chaos In The Ring’ boxing event, set to take place on Friday at the Balmoral Convention Centre in Lagos.
The weigh-ins for all the other boxers went smoothly, with only a few taunts and shoves, until the celebrities took their turn.
During their weigh-ins, the two musicians had a brief altercation and had to be separated by bouncers. Following the incident, Portable demonstrated his boxing skills through shadow boxing.
“You better say you’re not fighting again. I just came out of prison, I’m a former prisoner, and they’ve cut my hair. It’s all the bad side of my life that they cut away. I have already won this fight,” Portable taunted his opponent.
The “Zazuu” crooner, who was recently released after Fuji star Saheed Osupa dropped a cyberstalking case against him, proudly bragged about his fighting skills.
“I am a street fighter, and they (Balmoral) paid me money to beat you, so I will beat you. I am sorry in advance. If you think it is because I just left prison, forget that, I will beat you. You are a mosquito, and a mosquito can’t beat a lion,” he said.
This follows statements he made weeks ago, where he expressed interest in facing former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua for N100m, rather than Speed Darlington, whom he regarded as an “unworthy opponent.”
Speed Darlington hit back just as fiercely, stating, “You can’t beat me, let’s go now! Nothing can happen. It is here that they will wipe your blood, just show up tomorrow. I will take your belt home with me.
“I will bring the coffin for you and bury you in it after I beat you. You can’t compare Charles to me, he is a father and he is old, no worry.”
The ongoing feud between the two artists reportedly intensified when Speed Darlington offered Portable N500,000 to perform at his event, a gesture that Portable found insulting.
