Recap: From the URL Update 2.0 card (an app only event), a more versatile than usual Rum Nitty adds a gang of witty personals and provocative zingers to his customary palette of spitfire punchlines and steadily ringing gun bars to edge a close round 1 over a dope, but a little filler prone turn from Th3 Saga. That’s before Rum would easily take the 2nd round with a more condensed and consistently punch-heavy go-around that beat back an opponent who while solid throughout, was hurt by one too many thematic name flips and some mediocre punchlines. In the 3rd round, an introspective and more intricate with the punches Saga gets past a still-scoring-with-the-heat Rum via more overall potency within his raps to avoid getting shutout.
Verdict: Rum Nitty (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Rum Nitty – “Heat shot, his legs kept moving tho…the nerve of ’em!”
