In late June 2026 Portable announced a rematch with actor‑boxer Charles Okocha for 31 July at Lagos’s Balmoral Convention Centre, billed “Unfinished Business” in the Chaos in the Ring 4 series. The rivalry stems from a 2023 dispute over a ₦40 million deal and a first bout that Portable won. Both fighters brought high‑profile trainers and a press conference that erupted into a physical clash, triggering the rematch clause.

During the opening round of the July fight a wrestling‑style scuffle broke out; security intervened, Portable left the ring and was subsequently disqualified, awarding Okocha the victory and overturning Portable’s earlier win. Portable alleged a bite, which Okocha denied, saying he wore a mouthguard.

On 4 August Portable released a diss track targeting the officiating, accusing Okocha of choking him and threatening to settle the score through local wrestling. Okocha responded that he would rather chew grass than bite and reiterated his focus on boxing. The track went viral, intensifying debate over the credibility of Nigeria’s emerging celebrity‑boxing scene and prompting calls for a possible third showdown.
