Definitely. More good battles, more work put in. Has cor ever had any epic meltdown 30's? Verb killed him but it's not like cor was bad at all. Verb was just 10/10. I feel math is underrated but cor been over him for awhile.
Interesting, I still have Math being better than Cortez all time but at least you can make a legit argument for Cortez now.

So has Cortez surpassed Math? All time, not just right now...
It's crazy thinking about it, but yeah.. Tez surpassed him off statistics alone

Math's taken major Legacy damaging L's vs Calicoe, Bigg K, ShowOff and T Top.
Those are L's I can't just ignore when I judge his legacy.

Like @MicIsGod said, Tez lost to Verb but not because he was wack.
It's a difference.

Remember back in the day when a L could make you look at a nikka differently
Math has suffered a COUPLE of those, combined w/ lackluster performances.

His L's and lackluster performances have hurt his stock to the point where he's under Cortez simply because Tez was more consistent throughout his career.

It's crazy to come to that conclusion since Math was one of my favorite rappers in the DVDera.
And he has more memorable moments than Cortez

Interesting enough, Verb is not far away from that same fate w/ nikkas if he doesn't watch out.
We've been witnessing Verb goin on the same decline for 2-3 years now.

I can't believe I actually have Tez over Math smh
Cause I still think Math has peaked higher than Tez and I look at Tez as his lil nikka when I see them together. But he's under Tez at this point

You messed my mind up w/ this one breh lol

Damn Hoffa..

Look at it this way. Cortez just said that Brooklyn was his with no hesitation. Years ago he'd never say that out of respect to what math was doing and he was under him. Picture Cortez getting 30'd by showoff lol. Math has taken some really laughable L's.

So... for everyone who is putting Cor above Math....
Are y'all ready for my DNA deserves serious MT. Rushmore consideration argument?
lol I vaulted that shyt a few weeks back because I didn't like the idea of putting DNA up there, but I just realized it's a very similar argument to the one we are having here. Might have to let that one out....

Math needs to come back with a vintage performance, something reminiscent of his run in 2013

I think it would be easier to put his resume against a Cortez, or anybody really if he had redeemed himself at least once in the last year or two.

He's one of my favorite battlers and was very underrated at this peak but his last few battles have not been pretty, besides the one against Dialect

Nah I gotta disagree with a few of yall lol. Math >>>> Tez all time, even with the last shytty 2 yrs and change Hoffa had.

We gonna act like Math didnt battle like 12 times in a 8 month period and didnt take a single clear L back in 2013?

Or didnt have battle of the year candidates in back to back yrs following that run?

Cortez doesnt have a round to his name thats in the same building as Math's 3rds for Rex or Diz.

On the low though, ppl talk about Cortez but Math has just as many problems on a big stage lol
