Recap: Honestly, but for a couple of 2nd round slip-ups, Ryda won this battle. Jerry Wess, who overall, despite a solid turn throughout, probably had his worse battle here with filler aplomb, edged the first round with a slightly better mix of (“I was at your girl house last night…I’m just here to give you her keys back!”) bars, rich schemes/personals and an ill performance. From there it was plenty of haymakers….but mostly from (“Hey Clip, you chose to put two dough on it?, I’ll make Jerry Wess feel like Jerry West, his front get the .44 [44] on it!”; “You start shit, I end shit…this is Genesis vs. Revelations!”) Ryda, who stepped it up in the 3rd to easily take round and would’ve had the 2nd too if he was better prepared.
Verdict: Jerry Wess (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Jerry Wess – “Wait, enough with the schemes, before he start thinking he punch better than I do, you gonna leave here on a bad note…like he lost on American Idol!”
