Recap: Jersey legend versus Jersey legend meet up for the 1st time in Cali of all places with longtime vets Arsonal and Serius Jones going at it for 3 rambunctious rounds. Edge the first round to Arsonal, who with a more well-rounded turn that featured his usual panache of extra-disrespectful bars and aggressive heaters, beat back a lofty, but less gripping turn by Jones. Highlighted by a well-thought-out freestyle that a seemingly bored Arsonal brought onto himself by literally doing push-ups in the middle of the round, a more polished Jones also turned it up a notch with some banging punches to even things up. Clearly more intent on winning than his opponent as the battle continued, Jones stayed proper and matched his ever-cocky swag with more consistently fiery darts, whether they were righteous pontifications or well-aimed personals that more than landed to get the edge over a albeit funny at times, but not as consistently nice turn from da Rebel.
Verdict: Serius Jones (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Serius Jones – “And you could do push-ups, but that ain’t gonna help you at all bro, what you need to do is pull-ups because you need to get in tune with your bars bro!”
