Portable releases diss track after boxing loss

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Portable released a diss track days after losing to Carter Efe at the Chaos in the Ring 4 event in Lagos.

In the song, he spoke about using his street experience and claimed the entertainment industry worked against him.

Portable also alleged that the fight was unfair and claimed it was stopped early because organisers could not afford to pay large betting winnings, insisting he was still fit to continue and that pouring water on him would have allowed him to go on.
