Recap: A couple of bars or two maybe. But other than lazy penmanship, can’t imagine why a seasoned vet like Big Kannon would drench himself in so many old and tired E. Ness/Making da Band personals as he does here in this RBE Straight To It 3-rounder. And with Ness (not only one of the most consistent battlers in the game, but also an underrated puncher) doubling up on the piercing wordplay when he wasn’t already excelling via a steady, oft-entertaining and bruising punch game in the 1st and 3rd rounds (had BK edging the 2nd), it’s the more persistently hard-hitting Bad Boy alum who gets the win.
Verdict: E. Ness (W) 2-1
Favorite line: E. Ness – “QB on vacation, I can’t go without the strap, grumpy old man I can’t go without my nap!”
