Portable, Efe Trade Words Ahead Chaos in the Ring

The upcoming 'Chaos in the Ring 4' celebrity boxing event in Lagos is generating significant buzz, not just for its main bouts but also for the fiery exchanges between its participants. Social media personalities Habeeb 'Portable' Badmus and Carter Efe have escalated their war of words, promising a dramatic showdown in the ring. Portable, a two-time winner of celebrity exhibition bouts, confidently declared his intention to secure a third belt at Efe's expense, drawing parallels to his previous victories over larger opponents.

“

I will use you to collect my third belt. Charles Okocha was bigger than you, Speed Darlington was bigger than you and I beat them. I will beat you now.

Efe, however, remained unfazed by Portable's boasts, dismissing his record and warning that the fight would be short-lived. His retort, "One punch and you fall," signals a clear intent to end the bout decisively. This verbal sparring sets a high-octane tone for their clash, reflecting the often theatrical nature of celebrity boxing events where personal rivalries fuel public interest.

“

You can’t beat me. You that is scared of me — when we meet in the ring, I will beat you. One punch and you fall.

Beyond the celebrity bout, the main event features Ezra Arenyeka and Godday Appah in a fight billed as a symbolic WBO Peace Fight between the Itsekiri and Ijaw communities of the Niger Delta. The face-off revealed no lingering goodwill, with Appah issuing a stark warning to Arenyeka, framing the fight as a "war" for his belt, his people, and the win. Arenyeka responded with equal ferocity, promising to "break your head" and finish the fight within five rounds. The event, promoted by Balmoral Group Promotions in association with AK Promotions and sanctioned by the Nigeria Boxing Board of Control, aims to provide a significant platform for these athletes, showcasing the best of African boxing to a global audience via DAZN broadcast.

We were friends but there is no friendship in the ring. Right now, I am fighting for my belt, for my people and for the win. He knows who the king is. I am here for the knockout — this is war. You will not survive six rounds with me.
