Recap: More a battle with a host of showmanship, rigid gun lines and “moments” (R. Streetz dropping the water bottle by Mack Mel to accentuate his ‘distracting’ 2nd round gun bar, being the best one) rather than a clean and fiery barfest, a surprising choke by Mel in the 2nd prevents this battle from being a classic. However, the PG battle’s competitive nature, sterling punches on both sides, a debatable 1st round and Mel coming back in the 3rd with a (“But I seen you came here in a new J’s, UCLA, nice chain, Norbes, I see you like the nice things, [swish!!!] buck-50 aside, I gave Streetz a bike lane!”) too-fiery turn that easily beat back a pretty standard round from Streetz, while normally making this one a draw, instead, thanks to the choke, gives it to R. Streetz.
Verdict: R. Streetz (W) 2-1
Favorite line: R. Streetz – “.22 in the boot, done rubbed on my Achilles so much, the skin don’t grow there!”
