Recap: In this punch-lit 3-rounder from IBattleTV, KOTD champ (belt not on the line here) Real Deal gives Xcel all he can handle with a wide array of piercing 4-bar set-ups, boastful barbs and blistering personals. But with a consistent run that featured some stinging wordplay, plenty of righteous darts that landed, some rarely seen wit and a gang of rigid mayhem, it’s Xcel who edges both of the opening rounds for the win.
Verdict: Xcel (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Xcel – “And I got the biscuit, I’ll lift your spirit up, I’m optimistic!”
