reports that Portable expressed his frustration during a live Instagram video shortly after the bout on Saturday morning, insisting that the fight was biased against him.

He claimed Carter Efe was unprofessional and accused the organisers of failing to properly count his punches during the match.

Portable said, “I was robbed. Carter Efe was not professional enough. He was strangling with his long hands and height. I threw him many punches, why didn’t you people count them? Any blow that I threw to him ought to count even if it meets him on the shoulder or hand. And to the organisers, I want my stream money amounting to about ₦200 million. Just give me my money before I cause trouble.

“They did ojoro for me. All of you are mad. Carter Efe was just holding my neck. I was punching him too but you people are not talking about that. They knew he is tall and has long hands but still put him in a boxing match with me.”

Despite his complaints, Portable said the loss did not matter to him, adding that the birth of his child was more important than any boxing title.

He said, “You can only buy a belt with money, but a child cannot be bought. You people cheated. They can’t pay the money amounting to the sum of N23 billion. I thought I was going to dance with my belt but I ended up with my new baby.

“My wife just gave birth to a bouncing baby boy. I value that more than a belt. You can buy the belt but not my child.”

Carter Efe Claims Victory By Unanimous Decision

Portable’s reaction followed Carter Efe’s unanimous decision victory at the Chaos in the Ring 4 event held at Balmoral Hall in Lagos.

All three judges scored the bout 27–30 in favour of Carter Efe, bringing Portable’s celebrity boxing run to an end.

Before the fight, Portable had confidently predicted victory, saying he would claim his third belt after previous wins over Charles Okocha and Speed Darlington.

“I will use you to collect my third belt,” he had boasted. “Charles Okocha was bigger than you, Speed Darlington was bigger than you, and I beat them. I will beat you now.”

However, Carter Efe dismissed the challenge ahead of the fight, responding, “One punch and you fall.”

During the match, Carter Efe used his height and reach advantage to dominate the three-round contest, landing cleaner shots and controlling the tempo throughout.

The win secured Carter Efe the new celebrity boxing championship title.
