Controversial singer Speed Darlington has called for a rematch with his colleague Portable following his defeat in their much-talked-about celebrity boxing match.
The Friday night bout ended in a technical knockout (TKO) win for Portable after Speed Darlington failed to get back on his feet in the second round.
The clash kicked off with a heated first round, where Portable took control by unleashing a flurry of aggressive punches.

After the fight, Darlington took to Instagram on Saturday, claiming that Portable had an unfair advantage due to his street-honed fighting experience.
“It’s so unfair,” he said.
“I have never been in a ring before because I did not come from poverty. I never needed to learn how to fight. We didn’t need to snatch food from people, so I didn’t need to learn how to fight that’s why it looks like I don’t know how to fight.
“But now, I’m a man and I feel like it’s important for a man to know how to throw a fist. So now, I’m going in and I need a rematch. You do not deserve that money.
“Give me two months and 15 training sessions, and I’ll be ready. That prize money should be mine.”
The singer also revealed that he intends to use “juju” (voodoo) to gain an advantage in their rematch.
The feud between the two singers began when Darlington extended an invitation to Portable to perform at his show, offering him N500,000 in return.
Portable dismissed the offer, ridiculing Darlington for being “poor” and insisting that his performance fee was N20 million.
In his reaction, Darlington claimed that Portable had insulted his mother.
Portable fired back by daring Darlington to a fight, boasting that he would defeat him just like he did with actor Charles Okocha.
