so you seriously got him beating magic? :upsetfavre: and you really think day/lux would match up well? you dont see how 2 nikkas who go completely over nikkas heads would have the room on some :yawn: type shyt?

No, he got his ass kicked by Magic....i will never forget how everybody on the board that day was quotin' Day like he was goin' off i was hype as shyt....once the footage leaked that night, i watched every round from day and had the :stopitslime: face.

He played with Magic, he wasn't trying to kill him....he had a goal which is to make magic "disappear" which is pretty much what happened but there were very little bars directed at magic maybe 2 the whole time, everything else was shots fired at Lux.

Even if Lux & Day go over heads, they both have the delivery, performance and stage presence to make the crowd go crazy no matter what they say do they not?. So that's really not an issue. For every 2 lines that go over heads, it's 3 more lines that the crowd can understand and ohh and ahh over.

He lost clearly to magic, he lost to ice in most people eyes. All those battles he took serious are debatable or he lost, its not like he's clearly winning these battle he took serious. He's really done nothing at all to warrant a battle with lux. I'd rather see verb honestly. Rewarding daylyt with a lux battle would be sad. If he beats clips and verb then I'd be more open to the talk :ld: Till then I don't see it.

He didn't lose to Ice, not even a little bit lmao. Day didn't lose to Shotty, CT, KG, Lotta, or Rich. Chilla is the only real argument imo. I didn't say he smoked em' all but majority of these i got Day 2-1 easily.

:heh: i was hypin up day shyt cuz nikkas was actin like he aint rap AT ALL in that magic battle, gotta play the devil's advocate sometimes breh :yeshrug:

as far as him playin with magic nah that whole 3rd round was on some "i fathered you wannabe crip nikkas" type shyt, it wasn't like he showed up spittin 2002 level bars and sprayin silly string in the crowd.

and nah i dont agree with the last statement, there's a reason day usually has to take to twitter or somethin after this battles to explain shyt like the MK scheme, the delivery is what makes people miss alot of shyt he says, and as far as lux the only battle where he showed real stage presence was against Cal, in the battle vs. hollow he was just standin there for the most part, no where near the amount of swag he had at SM2(which imo, was basically lightning in a bottle)

and you really think his battle vs. ice wasn't debatable at all breh? i gotta disagree

I liked the first half of Ice's round.....his sh!t died out after awhile he just kept going and going. He ain't got nowhere near the performance or presence to rap for that long and still have that same energy and keep the crowd rockin' with him. Day was just bar after bar and kept the crowd in tune. To me it was a horrible clash in styles that just didn't mesh well.

I think Lux vs Cal was Lux putting on a show from all aspects especially in performance, stage presence is always there because i mean it's Lux. His overall character as a battle rapper damn near commands the stage, cypher, whatever. He always been animated anyway to a degree. Hollow was more so do another theme/angle/prop but more direct, bring a few more bars, and be more aggressive.

Even if you feel he won they are all very very debatable. Most people have Ice beating day :manny:

Lux and daylyt makes sense to me. Heres why.

Who can stick with lux lyrically for 3 long rounds? The only "logical" choices.

Verb? I don't think so. Plus said he wouldn't battle lux (pretty sure he'd change that for a big check)
Clips? I don't think so. Would be daniel-san vs Mr. Miyagi anyway. They might take it easy on each other who knows.
Chilla. Lyrically yes, but he's not ready for that word to DNA. Still has "showmanship and performance" questions.
Daylyt. Lyrically yes, Daylyt is his own biggest weakness but he can perform and entertain while bringing bars for 3 straight rounds. Has put in work in numerous battles all over the place and always brings bars. He's the best all around choice.

still looking for that post that says daylyt is undefeated :beli:
:beli: stop it, it's right here

Day ain't lost a battle yet that he took serious. Chilla is the only debatable one. He got busy in every last one of them, that's why he deserves Lux. He'll take a battle at the drop of a dime, his work ethic is crazy. People can argue views and popularity, how he did it was on some other sh!t, but regardless he became one of the most relevant battle rappers out there. Ain't nobody have wordplay like Lux, let alone put it together in the same caliber as him except Day. You can't say he doesn't have performance and crowd control. If he can smoke everybody on his list which is clips on the 28th, verb in august apparently, Red, Big T, and Surf. I don't see how anybody could deny Day that shot at Lux in that ring after all that. That's if he can actually accomplish all this though, none of these people are a walk in the park on they A game.

Its gonna take bars and angles to beat lux. Day is the king of just random bars. Lux is gonna bar you to death and pick apart your character like no one else. Day fails badly in the angle category. Verb is the best choice imo, even tho I think he'll lose too. Hollow will go down as his most competitive battle in the new era :manny:

I don't have day or anyone beating lux.That's a hard lyrical onslaught to overcome. Verb would have to showtime it all 3 rounds from beginning to end and. I don't think he has that in him.I have day as the most entertaining matchup that we as fans can get from lux. That's why I said day is his own biggest weakness. I'm personally tired of saying "If day takes it serious or If day doesn't use a gimmick..." He gets in the ring and throws random bars or uses a gimmick and lets lux melt his face off for 3 rounds. He can't blame anyone but himself. We can only hope he's smart enough to show up lyrically for a battle he's been calling for.

this is the part that kills me, i understand nikkas might prefer one battler over the next but when nikkas straight up act like close battles aren't even debatable :smh: you already know you can't convince them shyt

for the most part unless it's a clear bodybag(like the skill level isn't even close, on some JC vs Timebomb type shyt) or major chokes are involved, alot of shyt is debatable imo
