Recap: Probably alluding to Bigg K rapping in different pockets outside of his usual pedigree of rapid punching, A. Ward might’ve been right when he told Bigg K that it was him that was forcing K to rap this way. Nonetheless with plenty of white-on-white violence, aggressive/raucous punches on both sides, a surprising display of solid rebuttals from K, a plethora of hard-hitting personals from Ward (esp. in round 3), stinging Christian-laces disses and wtty barbs from K, a bunch of dope wordplay/schemes from Ward and a shockingly elongated at times K showing off some strong versatility throughout this battle, all-in-all this matchup (which notoriously got pushed back from last year due to Ward’s last-minute bout with sickness) ended up being spitfire and competitive. A trio of rounds that were all close and had the RBE crowd buzzing throughtout, assisted by a couple of more haymakers in round 1 and some nasty off-the-dome work that edged him the 2nd round, it’s Bigg K for the win before a more direct and slightly more steadily hitting A. Ward edged the final round to avoid the 30 piece.
Verdict: Bigg K (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Bigg K – “I ain’t saying God fake, I hope he exist, but if he made you in his image, I know he a bitch!”
