According to slim corleone URL next big card looks crazy

Lux vs surf
Ars vs Cassidy
Mook vs hollow
Rum vs calicoe

And Tay roc will be on the card too

Looks too stacked to be true but slim is normally right on 90% of his info so...


You know what? The funny thing about this card is that although it’s stacked with names, these are all “meh” battles individually on paper imo. I’d still buy it though because battles arent fought on paper at the end of the day.
You really never know how they turn out.

I know a lot of people on here will disagree with my point of view on these battles.

Rum/Cal is a stylistic clash that doesn’t make sense. Cal is more suited for RBE like Math.

Cassidy needs so much more work before he’s even ready to hit the stage. I don’t even want to talk about Arsonal.

Mook/Hollow makes sense, but it has all the ingredients for a boring battle.

Lux/Surf is the most appealing battle. I’ve never been high on Surf as a battler, but If he comes like he did against Gotti this can be entertaining.

I don't agree with you about Rum/Cal, but not vehemently, it's not that too big of a style clash imo. They both talk street shyt, Rum just punches a lot more. I'm here for the crazy Cal/Cow, Calicoe gun metaphors and movie references from Rum. I do agree that Cal is better suited for RBE at this point; the smedium stage as I like to call it. not a small room, but not a big stage where Cal is shytting the bed these days.

I agree about Cass, he's just coming back to stink up the joint, again. How bad this battle is depends on which Arsonal shows up though. If Ars is trash and Cass is trash? This'll easily be the one of the worst battles of all time, surpassing Mook/Iron.

Agree about Mook/Hollow too. but like Cass/Arsit depends on which Hollow shows up. If Hollow's unorthodox style doesn't do well, then this battle can be horrid too. If Hollow does his thing I got him winning easily.

Lux/Surf has classic potential imo. If Surfs comes short he's gonna get killed, and Beloved will be Beloved. I have a feeling he has better angles for Surf that he can use so he may have a great 3rd. he might even answer Big T's question he asked when he battled Surf :sas1:

"Now Surf....how you do that?' :sas2:

The income they must be getting from the app can’t be understated. It’s no surprise that they can put together these big cards on a more regular basis now.
You had cats earlier in the thread saying it’s only because the big names stopped charging high prices but that’s clearly not it. No way Cass, Lux, Mook, etc., all decided to take shorts at the same time, Smack and Beas are just eating good off of that PPV and app money.
