Recap: Pretty solid matchup between O-Red and A. Ward on RBE ends up a draw as a more direct and punch-heavy Ward takes the 1st round before Red comes back with a more condensed and wordplay-lit 2nd to tie things up going into the final round. A competitive battle already featuring a bunch of gritty sports references, fierce double-entendre’s, religious (O-Red : “You fishy with that Bible, I said it Peter…now pop off!”) derision, witty personals and festive name flips, would spout more of the same in a 3rd round that was equally potent with enough haymakers on each side to force a debatable.
Verdict: Debatable
Favorite line: A. Ward – “You picked the worst time, y’all had me meet [meat] Red on a rare plate?, this ain’t fair wait, I’m locked in, he Ricky Bobby, I’m Sidney Crosby, he think he fire, I’m a top Pen!”
