Portable and Charles Okocha are set to clash again in a celebrity boxing rematch. The bout, tagged "Unfinished Business," is scheduled for July 31 at the Balmoral Convention Centre in Victoria Island, Lagos.

Balmoral Promotions announced the event as part of the Chaos in the Ring series. It will be broadcast live on DAZN.

The rivalry traces back to 2023. Portable accused Okocha of shortchanging him in a business deal reportedly worth millions of naira. This led to their first boxing match, which Portable won by stopping Okocha in the fourth round.

At the recent press conference, tensions escalated quickly. Portable declared, “You that I have beaten before, I will break your bones.” Okocha responded confidently, stating Portable “won’t last more than two rounds in the ring.”

A thrown soda bottle triggered chaos. The exchange involved flying chairs and brief physical scuffles before security intervened.

Portable recently lost a bout to Carter Efe. Okocha has trained visibly and expressed determination to avenge his earlier defeat.

The card also features other matchups, including Agbaje versus Musa. Social media reactions highlight the hype and drama surrounding the rematch.

Both fighters have engaged in additional face-offs, including at Ikeja Underbridge. The buildup continues to draw public attention as the date approaches.
