This was a high-level, debatable classic, but E Hart's intricate writing and haymaker-heavy rounds gave her the edge. Badnewz landed one of the biggest punches of the battle in the second round and clearly won it, aided by a stumble from Hart. However, E Hart's surgical pen game in the first and third, highlighted by unforgettable schemes like the 'P or K' and 'asterisk' bars, was too much to overcome. She controlled the narrative for two rounds with a masterful performance.
