Recap: If this 3-round, LABattleGroundz battle was just about jokes, Cali Smoov would’ve had this one easy as those racial angles he took with the quips were often hilarious. Unfortunately for Cali tho, outside of showing off his funny bone there really wasn’t much else he could bring to the table in terms of a robust punch game, leaving opponent Stricc, armed with a shitload of consistently nasty punchlines, some head-ringing wordplay, righteous struggle bars and his own slew of hitting personals, with a working man’s 30.
Verdict: Stricc (W) 3-0
Favorite line: Stricc – “Nothing stands out about you squares, I’m color-blind with a Rubik cube!”
