Recap: From AVL Battle League, Anderson Burruss and A. Ward go head-to-head and it’s a real goodie what with both battlers lighting up the room with plenty of biting personals, boastful barbs, some edgeworthy racial zingers, Christian-themed disses and righteous darts between them. However, when it came to never letting his foot come off the metal, in the first couple of rounds anyway, AB was clearly the better battler. The part-time ‘camera guy’ besting his opponent with a gang of crazy back-to-back-to-back punchlines, ill personal breakdowns and blistering jokes in rounds 1 and 2 to handily beat back a pretty solid, but too often pedestrian-peddling Ward for the win. That said, despite another blazing turn from AB in round 3, Ward would go on an equally punch-heavy run to tie it up and avoid the 30.
Verdict: Anderson Burrus (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Anderson Burruss – “Bro, Jesus is your mascot, you draw crowds with it, you just profit off a prophet like compound interest!”
