Recap: A couple of We Go Hard’s brightest stars, Chess and Dougy, leave it all on the floor and put forth an epic show, both battlers using fiery (Chess: “Head tap, get one shot like you can’t do it over!”) gun lines, boastful (Dougy: “Cross both arms and box Chess, that’s a casket!”) punches, aggressive performance bars, sturdy name flips, gritty (Dougy: “You from the Bronx, right?, well if my hand cock the jawn, I’m a flatline Chess right next to the X with my signature arm, grab on him, it’s a grip in my palm, then dab on him, he get hit with the arm!”) street darts, potent (Chess: “I can lightly black on bodies, I’m two-toned!”) wordplay and even some spicy personals to make for a close and competitive showing during all 3 rounds. Still, for all the surplus in bar efficiency, mutual respect for each other’s pen and Gwitty and Steams in the crowd competing with each other for best reaction’s, it’s really not too hard to call a winner as for all of Chess’ grit and charming parlance, a confident and less flow-challenged Dougy just landed more haymakers in the 1st and 2nd rounds to seal the win, before Chess salvaged the 3rd with a much stronger turn there.
Verdict: Dougy (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Dougy – “Two different demeanor’s, you thinking about homework, I’m thinking about some new work…A Boogie daydreaming in the cleaners!”
