Soso Soberekon Pledges N20 Million for Speed Darlington vs Portable Rematch
Celebrity boxing may soon return to the spotlight as Nigerian music executive Soso Soberekon has offered a N20 million incentive for a rematch between controversial artists Speed Darlington and Portable.
The proposal follows Friday night’s much-publicized bout dubbed “Chaos in the Rings”, which ended with Portable claiming victory over Speed Darlington. The match sparked reactions online, with Speed Darlington taking to Instagram shortly after the fight to allege that Portable used supernatural powers—commonly referred to as “juju”—to secure the win. He demanded a rematch to “correct the outcome.”
Soso Soberekon, reacting to the controversy in the comments section of the post, expressed his willingness to fund a second showdown. “Rematch 20m for the winner,” Soberekon wrote. “@speeddarlintv you have my number or tell the promoters to reach out to me.”
The unexpected celebrity clash drew widespread attention on social media, with many calling for a follow-up match given the theatrics and drama surrounding the event. With a significant cash prize now on the table, fans may not have to wait long for round two.
