Carter Efe Claims ₦50m Prize and ‘Carter Mayweather’ Nickname After Unanimous Decision Win Over Portable at Chaos in the Ring 4

Carter Efe has broken his post-fight silence following his unanimous decision victory over Portable at the Chaos in the Ring 4 celebrity boxing event held in Lagos on May 1, 2026, declaring himself an international star and adopting a new nickname in the process.

“I’m feeling like an international world star, my name is Carter Mayweather,” Efe said in a video posted to X, formerly Twitter. The self-styled ‘Carter Mayweather’ backed up the confidence with the scorecard: all three judges scored the bout 30-27 in his favour, handing Portable his first loss in celebrity boxing.

Efe described the contest in straightforward terms. “The fight was soo easy, first round I don swell up him face. Second round, e don dey shake. Third round, defence,” he said. The scorecard offers little room to dispute that assessment. In the opening round, Portable came out aggressively with wide, looping punches, but Efe absorbed the pressure and responded with composed counterattacks. The second round saw Efe land cleaner combinations while Portable struggled to connect with his shots, and the third round followed a similar pattern as Efe maintained control through to the final bell.

Of note was Efe’s admission that he entered the fight with minimal preparation, reportedly directing his focus toward a separate talent hunt event he was organising at the time. “I didn’t even prepare — I prepared for my talent hun,” he stated. If accurate, the claim adds further weight to the margin of defeat for Portable, who had arrived at the event in confident form, publicly targeting a third celebrity boxing belt following previous victories over Charles Okocha and Speed Darlington.

Portable, however, did not accept the result with composure. Speaking on Instagram Live after the fight, he alleged that he had been wronged. “I was robbed. Carter Efe was not professional enough. He was strangling with his long hands and height. Any blow that I threw to him ought to count even if it meets him on the shoulder or hand… They did ojoro for me,” Portable said. He also called on event organisers to release what he claimed was ₦200 million in streaming revenue, reportedly threatening to “cause trouble” if the funds were not forthcoming.

Beyond the fight result, the evening carried significant material reward for Efe. The ₦50 million prize was gifted by billionaire socialite E-Money, while Super Eagles striker Victor Boniface added a trip to Germany as a further reward for the winner. Efe departed the event as the new Nigerian celebrity boxing champion.

The Chaos in the Ring series has grown into one of Nigeria’s more prominent celebrity combat sports platforms, drawing large audiences and significant social media engagement. The fourth edition continued that trajectory, with the Efe vs. Portable matchup generating widespread online discussion both before and after the bout. Portable’s demand for streaming revenue reflects the commercial scale the event has reached, even if the financial arrangements between fighters and organisers remain, according to reports, a point of contention.

For Efe, the victory represents a notable crossover moment — a social media and entertainment figure who entered a competitive sporting format and emerged with an unblemished record, a substantial prize, and a self-assigned nickname that references one of boxing’s most decorated champions. Whether Portable pursues a rematch or escalates his dispute with organisers is likely to shape the next chapter of Nigerian celebrity boxing.
