Recap: The hurting Born’s been consistently putting on dudes for the past couple of years just begs for a return to the URL stage. Indeed, it’s another strong showing here against a (You’ll get cut out the picture by the cream of the crop”) game, but overmatched Xcel. Delivering exquisite (“Run up on him like ‘give it up’. but he broke as hell, nuthin’ on him but Android, I guess we all can’t be perfect Cel [cell]”) punchline after (“Try me, get a single hit like Def Loaf”) punchline with steady ease in addition to a flurry of rich name flips. Born’s consistent verbal hijinks prove to be too much for Xcel, whose shortened rounds and elongated set-ups, didn’t help matters either.
Verdict: Born (W) 3-0
Favorite line: Born – “I said what up nigga, I know you hype to me, but the only way I’ll lose my footing? diabetes”
