Singer Nigerian Street Hop Habeeb Okikiola, known among music as a portable, has refused steps to fight his colleague Darlegonton Achakpo Okoye, aka Speed Darlington.
The controversial singer, who made a decision in the video posted on his Instagram page, stated that Speed Darlington was an inappropriate opponent when he tried to fight with Anthony Joshua instead.
In the video, Portable calls Anthony Joshua, demanding the N100 million for the match, while suggests that Speed Darlington hopes to fight him to promote his upcoming performance in April.
He also boasted about his status in the music industry, said he was bigger and more popular than Speed Darlington, which was released from Kuje’s prison in January for slandering Burna Boy.
“I’m not F! Ghting Speed Darlington anymore; I want Anthony Joshua with 100m,” Portable said.

This happened a few days after Darlington’s speed went to the gym in preparation for the proposed boxing match against his colleague, Portable.
In a clear prick on Portable, Darlington posted a video of himself on social media who bought coffin before going to the gym with his coach.
To prepare for a big battle with portable, the rapper is seen practicing his latent boxing technique, throwing blows, and increasing his fitness.
However, the anticipated celebrity boxing battle, which is scheduled to take place on April 18, 2025, at the Balmoral Convention Center in the State of Lagos, will not apply because of the potable decision not to fight Darlington’s speed again.
