I would rather chew grass than bite Portable — Charles Okocha

Nollywood actor, Charles Okocha, has denied claims that he bit singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, during their recent celebrity boxing rematch.

Speaking during an appearance on TVC Entertainment, Okocha dismissed the allegation, saying it was impossible because he wore a mouth guard throughout the fight. He also said he had no reason to bite his opponent.

“Portable has been going around telling people I bit him on the back. I was wearing a mouth guard; how is that even possible? He was just lying. I would rather chew grass than bite him. I don’t want to catch rabies. Have you seen how Portable’s skin looks? Hell no, I wouldn’t do that. He should just accept defeat,” he said.

The actor’s remarks came in response to claims made after the celebrity boxing contest, in which Portable alleged that Okocha bit him during the bout.
