Recap: You know Chef Trez might be in some trouble when he barely rebuttals or freestyle’s. Indeed, outside of a seismic, gritty and haymaker-lit round 3 that he handily took, in this Nexus bout from URL, while he was still able to deliver a couple of pretty rounds, Trez’s inability (or choice) to dish any off-the-dome heat ends up costing him here against Arsonal. Da Rebel, while still a bit smitten with subpar here and there, overcoming that with a gang of piercing braggadocious raps, disrespectful personals, able wit, hitting trap talk and filthy name flips/punchlines in both of the opening rounds to out-punch his opponent and earn the win.
Verdict: Arsonal (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Arsonal – “I hold Nina tight at night, that’s a cuddle, show up to ya funeral, open the casket just to tell you I’m still waiting on that rebuttal!”
