Recap: From Gates of the Garden, gritty with the street bars but so-so overall until he started scoring via some fiery usage of assonance in the latter half of his round, Jack Diesel ends up making this 1-rounder competitive. Still, with a boatload of hard-hitting boastful barbs, scorching name flips and gritty gun bars/punches, it’s Cortez who unleashes more than enough damage for the win.
Verdict: Cortez (W) 1-0
Favorite line: Cortez – “Today bro you gonna have to some more than some regular rapping, this ain’t the URL TV app, but this whole batle ya boy gonna be pressed just to get a reaction!”
