Recap: Besides a rim-rocking, personal and punch-heavy 1st round from JC, for two battlers well-known for their ferocious pens, JC vs. Iron Solomon, while solid throughout, certainly didn’t live up to the conventional hype. Still, with only 3 weeks prep, it’s probably not fair to have expected more to what turned out to be a tight and exciting match. And while Iron, after an up-n-down 1st, came back in the 2nd with a wittier, more potent turn that featured more braggadocio lines with an upturn of polemic wizadry, it’s a back-to-flexing (and more versatile) JC who takes the deciding 3rd with one too many haymakers to beat back another solid, taciturn round from Iron that like his 1st, just came with a few too many dry spots.
Verdict: JC (W) 2-1
Favorite line: JC – “Ask K-Shine, Smack is the only thing separating you from Charron!”
