Recap: As long as Ty Law’s been out of the ring, you had to know he was sitting on a shitload of bars. Still, up against a resilient punchline fiend like B-Magic, the main question here was if Law’s long break would give way to rust. Apparently not as from the jump Law’s pronounced, slow-punching and for the most part (one too many lines on Magic’s past brouhaha with the S.O.N.S’ Fox), consistently biting lines definitely made their presence felt throughout the battle. B Magic, on the other hand, quicker and adept with the punches, while also fierce with the name flips, wordplay and unorthodox polemics, would take advantage of Law’s worst turn of the night (a hitting at times, but somewhat pedestrian 3rd that came right after he tied things up by edging round 2) with a condensed, but ably proficient and punch-heavier round that worked effectively enough to edge him the battle.
Verdict: B Magic (W) 2-1
Favorite line: B Magic – “You better break when it clap like a football huddle!”
