Controversial music stars Speed Darlington and Portable are squaring off in a celebrity boxing match on April 18, 2025, at the Balmoral Convention Centre in Lagos. The drama kicked off in March when Darlington offered Portable N500,000 to perform at his upcoming gig. Portable laughed it off, calling it an insult since he charges N20 million a show.

That sparked a fiery back-and-forth. Darlington said he regretted asking Portable and claimed Portable trashed his mom. Portable fired back, daring Darlington to a fight and bragging he’d knock him out, just like he did to actor Charles Okocha in a celeb boxing match back in December 2023. Fans demanded this showdown, and now it’s happening. The organizer, Mygamerush, hyped it up on Instagram: “You wanted it, and it’s here—two street kings battling for the ultimate street crown!”
