Recap: Don’t know if you’ll find a better 3 rounds from Fettuccine 20 than this one versus the ever lyrical/off-the-dome-specialist Bangz. An exhilarating battle from jump, with Bangz kicking at least 5 mid-round rebuttals with each receiving the love they deserved, let’s just say that if Fetty came with anything less with his A-game, this one would’ve been a wash. But no worries there. After a first round littered with solid punches and some excellent wordplay by Fetty that was somehow edged by Bangz’s more condensed and fire (“So you could save the chat, ‘cuz lately I showed nigga’s it’s levels, bodies on top of bodies and fetti is something that’s made to stack!”) punchlines as well as a few of those aforementioned rebuts, Fetty stepped it up. First there was a spitfire 2nd round laced with haymakers, that is when he wasn’t scoring with salacious punch after punch. Then in the deciding 3rd, more of the same rigorous (“You see the arms waving and the medal clicking when it kick, it ain’t a tap dance show, first a POW!!! and then ‘Bangs!’ in the air, this the old Bat-Man show!”), steeze from Fetty, capped off by his own mid-round rebuttal that seemed to surprise even himself. A solid Bangz, still competing hard with plenty of wit, a nice freestyle and another rebuttal in the final round, would just fell short, what with a too few many dry spots and not quite as many bangers as his more noteworthy opponent.
Verdict: Fettuccine 20 (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Fettuccine 20 – “The first step [pop] or I could raise a nigga son, lift him all the way up, yeah, I keep a semi by, [leans back] Lean Back, rock Bangz [bangs] better than Remy Ma!”
