John John Da DonvsLotta Zay

In a Grind Time Now rematch that fans would later dub a 'classic,' John John Da Don and Lotta Zay both stepped into the ring determined to prove a point. The battle was a lyrical slugfest from the jump, with Zay bringing his signature sharp pen and consistent delivery. But the night belonged to JJDD, who showed a massive leap in star power and performance.

He set the tone early with a complex rock band scheme that had the crowd buzzing, showcasing a new level to his writing. While the second round was a tight exchange, with both battlers showing grit, John John turned the third round into a career-defining moment.
