Nigerian street-hop star Portable has protested his defeat to social media comedian Carter Efe, insisting he was unfairly judged in their celebrity boxing clash.

Carter Efe secured a unanimous decision victory in what many described as a dominant performance at the “Chaos in the Ring 4” event held at the Federal Palace Hotel, Lagos.

The bout marked Portable’s first loss in the celebrity boxing scene.

Reacting via Instagram, the “Zazoo Zehh” crooner alleged that organisers failed to properly count the punches he landed during the fight.

He also questioned the fairness of the matchup, pointing to Carter Efe’s height and reach advantage.

“I was robbed. Carter Efe was wrestling while I was throwing punches. He was strangling me with his long hands and height.

“I threw many punches—why weren’t they counted? Even if the punches landed on his shoulder or hand, they should count,” Portable said.

The singer further demanded payment of his earnings from the event, claiming he is owed about ₦200 million.

“I want my streaming money. Just give me my money before I cause trouble,” he added.

Portable also maintained that the fight was unevenly arranged, arguing that organisers knowingly matched him against a physically taller opponent.

Despite his protest, the judges’ decision stands, with Carter Efe emerging as the new celebrity boxing champion after controlling the fight across all three rounds.
