Recap: Often lost in Ru Bando’s penchant for gun bars and name flips is just how witty and wordplay-heavy he can be with the punches. That and the fact that Bando can get personal when he wishes too, certainly doesn’t qualify him for the ‘one dimensional’ lane that some of his peers might be quick to ascribe him too. Then too, if 90 percent gun bars and name flips gets you on a Smack stage, you’d be an idiot to change what got you there. And that’s a lesson happily Bando showcases here versus Kid Chaos. Predictable? Sure. But if you’re going to rely on oft-elongated schemes and personal tutorials that might be above your pay grade to beat a Bando that for the most part is on his A-game, you’re going to get edged in the 1st and 3rd rounds as Chaos does here and Bando’s gonna move on, dap you and keep doing him….as he should.
Verdict: Ru Bando (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Ru Bando – “This shot? disgusting, hideous, I’ll pop the spirit outta Kid…insidious!”
