Actor Charles Okocha denies biting Portable in boxing rematch

Nollywood actor Charles Okocha has refuted claims made by singer Portable that he bit him during their recent celebrity boxing rematch. Portable had alleged that Okocha bit his back and locked his neck during the contest.

“

Portable has been going around telling people I bit him on the back. I was wearing a mouth guard; how is that even possible? He was just lying.

During an appearance on TVC Entertainment, Okocha dismissed the accusation, explaining that he wore a mouth guard throughout the fight, rendering biting impossible. "Portable has been going around telling people I bit him on the back. I was wearing a mouth guard; how is that even possible? He was just lying," Okocha stated. He added that he had no reason to resort to biting, humorously remarking, "I would rather chew grass than bite him. I don’t want to catch rabies."

Okocha urged Portable to accept his defeat, noting the singer's appearance and stating, "Have you seen how Portable’s skin looks? Hell no, I wouldn’t do that." The recent bout saw Okocha emerge victorious after Portable was disqualified for using wrestling techniques and subsequently leaving the ring. This was their second boxing encounter, with Portable having defeated Okocha in their first match in 2023.
