The singer took to his Instagram page (@portablebaeby) to issue the challenge, triggering a wave of reactions across social media, where fans and critics alike have been sharply divided over the proposed matchup.
DJ Dimple has in recent weeks shared several boxing training videos and sparring sessions online, earning praise for her speed, strength and aggressive approach. Her growing confidence has fuelled speculation that she could pose a serious challenge if the bout materialises.
However, concerns have also emerged over the nature of the contest, with critics questioning the appropriateness of a male artist facing a female opponent in a regulated fight. Others, however, view the potential clash as part of the growing trend of celebrity boxing in Nigeria, where entertainment often takes centre stage.
Media personality “If you are close to Portable, advise him not to fight DJ Dimples. She’s got hands,” he said.
Despite the mixed reactions, Portable has shown no sign of retreat. Known for his outspoken personality and relentless self-promotion, he appears determined to bounce back from his recent loss with another high-profile showdown.
As online reactions continue to pour in-ranging from support for DJ Dimple to scepticism over the matchup, the Nigerian social media space has already branded the proposed fight as the next major celebrity boxing spectacle.
