Recap: A battle that was in the air for a couple of years, Danny Myers versus Nu Jerzey Twork, finally takes place in Danny’s West-coast stomping grounds and for the most part it was well worth the wait. The always excited-just-to-be-here Danny, does his thing with a wide load of eccentric gun bars, some righteous/mocking personals and flexing punches that outside of a angle-muddled 1st round, kept him in the match. For Twork, a sublime 1st round with a barrage of visceral (“I’m looking for the Target near me, like Google maps!”; “Everything come out his mouth bloody, like a British nigga!”) heaters and rousing schemes easily git him 1st, before a slightly more versatile, mayhem-dishing and personal-driven turn in the 2nd was able to equal a standout and more focused by his opponent. With Twork still up one going into 3rd, even without Danny’s use of a couple of dope freestyles/rebuttals, Myers’ steely pontificating, gripping vet talk and fiery punchlines/wordplay in the final round was more than enough to beat back a solid, but not-nearly-as-potent turn by Twork and thus, force a draw.
Verdict: TIE
Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Me on the big stage, no reason too, I ain’t never did Summer Madness because my bars ain’t seasonal!”
