Recap: From The News Battle League, what his opponent P.A.Y.N.E. lacked in rich metaphors and sturdy punches, Ave more than makes up for it, while also adding a gang of fiery name flips, feelgood wordplay and boastful barbs to handily the win over his mostly pedestrin opp in this 1-rounder.
Verdict: Ave (W) 1-0
Favorite line: Ave – “You think not?, you still the trauma what we not about?, man my whole gang be steppin’ P.A.Y.N.E. like we got gout!”
