Recap: Never seen Alex Diamond before, but he’s definitely got a collection of gritty bars that combined with consistent aggression could make him a problem in future battles…if he can work on his sportsmanship what with all the touching and talking through his opponent’s rounds as we saw here during this Capitol Battlegrounds 1-rounder vs. Ryda. But battle vet that he’s become, despite the disrespect, The Silk Shirt kept his cool and with a gang of stifling name flips, rich storytelling bars, righteous darts and fierce punchlines/gun bars, It’s Ryda who handily took the win.
Verdict: Ryda (W) 1-0
Favorite line: Ryda – “You only get one life, you won’t live again, they gonna find Diamond with the fishes, it’s all about the Benjamins!’
