Recap: Going forward Philly Haze may want to insert more of his wit in his bars, cuz the not-really-from-Philly (he’s actually from the BX) certainly funny when need be. That said, in this 3-rounder from BullpenBattle League, it’s all Cortez as the Brooklyn, NY, vet (despite a dope ‘off the wall’ freestyle by Haze in round 1) sticks it to his opponent with a gang of boastful barbs, searing heat, feel-good wordplay and more consistently lit punchlines to score the 3-0.
Verdict: Cortez (W) 3-0
Favorite line: Cortez – “Y’all pump Haze, but my block different, see y’all don’t get it, it’s Carlee Russell in my hood, that girl was never missing!”
