Okocha denies biting Portable, says singer should accept defeat

Nollywood actor Charles Okocha has refuted claims that he bit singer Habeeb Okikiola, known as Portable, during their recent celebrity boxing rematch in Lagos. Okocha asserted that he wore a mouth guard throughout the match, making the accusation impossible.

During an appearance on TVC Entertainment, Okocha dismissed Portable's allegations, stating, "I would rather chew grass than bite him. I don’t want to catch rabies. Have you seen how Portable’s skin looks? Hell no, I wouldn’t do that. He should just accept defeat."

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.

The rematch, held at the Balmoral Convention Centre, saw Okocha emerge victorious after Portable was disqualified for resorting to punches instead of wrestling techniques. Portable had previously accused Okocha of biting his back and locking his neck, questioning his involvement in the fight.

Okocha emphasized that Portable should accept the outcome of the contest rather than making unsubstantiated claims. The actor's comments follow the highly publicized bout, which garnered significant attention after their initial boxing encounter.
