Recap: With Tsu Surf locked up and very little top tiers facing each other these days, the majority of talk around battle rap nowadays seem to center around whatever drama is going on instead of a potential goodie like Fonz versus O-Red for 3 rounds on URL. Nonetheless, with plenty of mayhem dished from both sides, the two vets still put on a quality show, round one serving as the best one what with Red and Fonz offering up a gang of gritty and bombastic punches that the slightly more haymaker-lit Landlord ends up edging thanks in part to a couple of dry spots from the Jersey capo. From there, while Red stayed solid and boastful with a few dalliances of the wordplay-lit/old Red from back in the day coming back here and there, it’s the more consistently punch-bent, witty and personal-lit Fonz who would take round 2 too for the win before a slightly flow-challenged Fonz would get edged by the cleaner an dmore bar efficient Red in the 3rd.
Verdict: Fonz (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Fonz – “I’ll grab a gun with a beam and start clappin’ his hit, and it’s still transformeing ‘cuz when I’m done with the machine then it’s back to the whip!’
