In a bold and unexpected move, controversial Nigerian street hop singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has set his sights on a new opponent.
The "Zazuu" crooner wants to fight former heavyweight boxing champion Anthony Joshua.

Portable made this known after a viral video surfaced on his Instagram page, where he declared his intention to face the British-Nigerian boxing star.
According to the video, Portable is willing to get in the ring with Joshua for a staggering N100 million prize.
In the same video, Portable dismissed his previously scheduled celebrity boxing match with rapper Darlington Okoye, aka Speed Darlington, calling him an unworthy opponent.

Portable was recently seen training for the reported celebrity match against Speed Darlington but it seems it is now out of the picture.
This challenge for Joshua comes on the heels of YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul’s recent callout of Joshua, adding another layer of intrigue to the former champion’s list of potential opponents.
Portable’s challenge to Joshua follows Jake Paul’s provocative comments.
The influencer-turned-boxer claimed he could “easily beat” Joshua, even labeling him as having a “glass chin.”
