Portable has refused to accept defeat following his boxing loss to Carter Efe, insisting the fight was manipulated against him.
The celebrity showdown, held at Balmoral Hall in the Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, ended with Carter Efe claiming a unanimous decision victory, handing Portable his first setback in the ring.
Taking to Instagram shortly after the match, the ‘Zazzu’ crooner argued that many of his punches were ignored by officials. He also raised concerns about the pairing, saying his opponent’s height and longer reach gave him an unfair edge.
“I was robbed. Carter Efe was wrestling while I was throwing punches. 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 at 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 N200 million. Just give me my money before I cause trouble.
Carter Efe was just holding my neck. I was punching him, too, but you people are not talking about that. They knew he was tall and had long hands but still put him in a boxing match with me.”
