Portable challenges Cubana Chief Priest to N100m boxing match
Controversial Nigerian street-hop star Habeeb Okikiola, widely known as Portable, has once again set social media buzzing—this time by calling out nightlife tycoon Cubana Chief Priest for a celebrity boxing match.
In a viral video making rounds online, Portable expressed his desire to take on Chief Priest in the boxing ring—not out of personal beef, but as a strategy to make more money and elevate his fame.
“Na money I dey look for. I wan fight for money. I want to be fighting big people. I am bigger than Chief Priest… Chief Priest, did you learn boxing? I want to fight, no be sey I get you for mind. I want to cash money, make we make money together,” Portable said in his signature animated style.
This challenge comes shortly after Portable’s victory over Speed Darlington in a previous celebrity boxing showdown. Now, he’s aiming higher and wants his next opponent to be a more prominent figure—proposing a ₦100 million bet to sweeten the deal.
The proposed bout, if accepted, could spark a major entertainment event in Nigeria’s pop culture scene, blending drama, clout, and cash—elements both Portable and Cubana Chief Priest are no strangers to.
As of now, Cubana Chief Priest has yet to respond publicly to the challenge.
