Synopsis: I don’t know if I’d call this a great battle or a classic, but it was a pretty good nonetheless because of the fact that both Surf and Big T came with it during all three rounds, therefore making it close throughout. Yet the overall edge here goes to Surf for these reasons: while Big T had some great lines (the set up for the Keenan Ivory Wayans scheme in round 3 was dope), alomng the way he hurt himself quite a bit with filler. On the other hand Surf was more consistently hard (esp. in round a brazen, punch/wordplay-heavy and classic round 3) and aggressive. Then too, while rounds 1 and 3 were debatable, I thought Surf clearly won round 2 with better personals, jokes and clever bars, while Big T repeated a couple of lame schemes towards the end of rounds that he might have won. I didn’t like Surf talking a bit of smack during Big T’s round, but Jersey still got this one.
Verdict: Tsu Surf (W) 2-1
Best line: Tsu Surf – “What female would want to put her face between these knees?, that friction could only give off a ranch dressing smell or cream cheese, bagel things!”
