Recap: Without the chokes, this one might’ve been up there for Battle of the Year as both Shotgun Suge and Shotti P came with their A-games in this 3-rounder from KOTD. First round saw Shotti P get off to nice start with frenzied (“You wanna talk guns, my nigga’s strapped ready to shoot the breeze, you try to run, that toy airing his back like Scuba Steve!”) gun lines and witty personals that scored with the crowd. But Suge wasn’t having it, coming right back with one his best rounds we’ev seen in awhile, what with intense performance bars and aggressive (“Oh, you wanna spar? I’ll put you under the car like an oil change!”) punches that landed hard and edged him the round. Intent on even things up, Shotti P turned it up in the second with wittier (“If this fat fuck ask me what my life like, then Lord help me….What my life like? Nigga, more healthy!”) punches and potent (“I’m killing purple niggers like San Andreas!”) wordplay that beat back what started to be a pretty solid turn by Suge, before he lost his way and had to spout ‘Jersey!’ at the end. The deciding 3rd round saw Shotti ably continue with the jokes before surprising choking at the round and the battle as all Suge had to do was get through his round without stumbling/choking, which he (“Me and mt team play in the D, we’ll come through and fuck his Place up like we the Pacers!”) aggressively gamely did, pardon the background chatter around the stage
Verdict: Shotgun Suge (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Shotgun Suge – “You look mad, [but] this the thug way pussy, man I got this round in a bag like a Subway cookie!”.
