Recap: One thing one has learned from years of recapping battles: when everybody and their mother says it’s a 30, it’s usually not. Not to take anything away from Jerry Wess here, because he’s always been a dangerous opp for any battler. But this URL Summer Madness 13 against DNA was still close and competitive throughout. DNA scoring with a gang of dope 4-bar punches, some fire rebuttals (esp. during the start of his round 2), hitting personals and potent/mayhem-lit darts, came to win. While the underdog Wess’ performance-lit punches, jaunty name flips, props, hardbody boasts and full embrace of his ‘scammer’ rep also lit up the scoreboard. Still, a slow start of both battlers in round 1 ends up with the more haymaker-lit Jerry edging the opener before the trio of aforementioned rebuttals by DNA edged him round 2 to tie things up going into the 3rd. And while DNA had another pretty solid round, the deciding 3rd saw Wess go ham with the punches, performance and variety during a more steady showing that earned him the win.
Verdict: Jerry Wess (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Jerry Wess – “You wanna be a nigger’s top 5?, cool, but Mt. Rushmore this bitch buggin, when it comes to legends we don’t really consider you DNA…5th cousin!”
