Recap: Loud, bar-heavy, heat-ready, name-flip savvy, close and gritty PG battle between the rarely seen, but always on point (“I will shoot you in front of your son, you can crawl with him”) Illanoiz and lyrical barsmith (“City gave me my own platform to build a brand, that’s why I’m called Brooklyn!”) Brooklyn Carter comes down to the 2nd round, which a more condensed and consistent B.C. edges after also taking the 1st. An aggressive and pretty solid battle overall, even with B.C. getting the win early, peep a versatile and fire 3rd round from Illanoiz that’s riddled with haymakers.
Verdict: Brooklyn Carter (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Brooklyn Carter – “This battle like Jazz walking away, it’s a flat body, but it’s still cool to look at!”
