What's not to understand? Lux's name is ringing everywhere after what he did to Calicoe. He had a less than perfect performance, any rust SHOULD be off. Again Hollow is good, but if he's rusty, or not on point, he could catch the bag Cal was supposed to get. I'm not on the Hollow hype train like that, maybe I look at it different.
i always thought hollow was nice but seeing arsenal bodyslam that nicca for the bread and watching him fold under the pressure is still fresh in my mind for some reason :heh:

I can respect the first part, wanting to see more before you fully endorse Lux, cool. But not applying the same wait and see to Hollow and downplaying what just happened in the actual battle (No 50) as if Lux wouldn't have beat Calicoe with those rhymes under any circumstance looks like hate. I'm not selling anyone short, I just personally prefer Lux. The short selling is downplaying that ether he gave Calicoe. He broke his spirit toward the end there. [Nas] Look at his face![/Nas]:sadcam:

i have seen enough of hollow to know that in a fair crowd hollow would be a issue for lux.

i seen hollow literally survive a bodybag vs verb in st louis. cause he saw it was looking lopsided and he took it to another level for his 2nd rd (still lost) but i have seen hollow in every type of enviroment do his thing.

now again, no way would calicoe beat lux, we know this, but cmon, lets not act like there is not a point in the choke and the very complex 2nd rd where people were cheering not even understanding what the hell lux was saying would have not went differently in another environment. after the 1st rd and then starting the 2nd rd slowly he could have lost the crowd all together in another arena, then them lines like the larry merchant joint dont get screamed for like it did in a very forgiving webster hall crowd. i mean really you think lux wins with that performance in detroit?

lets open our eyes and keep it real a lot is being over looked by some due to them being lux fans. i recall battles like x factor vs tech 9 where x factor was miles better than tech 9 lyrically but the who place turning on him for 1 choke that wasnt nearly as bad as what lux did. so instead of people coming out saying listen to x factor bars, all they was talking about was his choke, giving tech 9 the win by default. with lux this is being heavily overlooked.

and im not saying if you choke you lose, cause i still think lux won, but i can recognize if he was in another city that might not have flew over very well with them. i can see lux doing his 3rd rd in st louis and most of the crowd screaming boooo verb did that already, cause due to the choke and the slow start to the 2nd rd, he might have lost the crowd for good.

yall taking this shyt as calicoe getting his soul snatched, shyt seem like calicoe got more fans than ever now standing up for him. im just saying its all perception

That's the one match up I thought of right after Lux/Calicoe. Must happen.
