Charles Okocha, a popular Nollywood actor, has begged that his ring battle with controversial artist Portable be called off.
metrowatchxtra.com confirms that Portable defeated the actor in a celebrity boxing bout on Wednesday to resolve a financial disagreement between them.
Okocha accused the referee and match organisers of rigging in response to Portable’s victory.
Expressing his grievances on his social media page, the actor alleged that Portable removed his boxing gloves during the third round, an action that should have led to immediate disqualification.
He said; “How can you give up in the 3rd round when we have 4 rounds? How do you take off your gloves in the third round, leading to total disqualification when the fight hasn’t ended?
“You all know this was rigged, with an incompetent referee who knows nothing about boxing rules. Nevertheless, we move on. Rematch is coming soon.”
