Recap: Elongated throughout the battle, but still stunting in his opponent’s hometown with enough gritty (“I’m Arsenal, I could teach you to be a winner, I’ll Coach Carter you, let a shotgun rearrange your eye, formation without an audible!”) punchlines, relentless mayhem/gun bars and fiery personals (towards Aye Verb and fellow St. Louis battler Hitman Holla), although amazingly lengthy throughout the battle, Arsonal survives some at-times scathing condemnations from a scheme/personal-heavy Verb to earn a draw (Ars took Rd. 1, 2nd round was a tie and Verb edged round 3) in this 3-rounder from Smack/URL.
Verdict: TIE
Favorite line: Aye Verb – “There’s a bigger G than being a gangsta, it’s called being a grown man!”
