ILLo beat DaDDiO when he was coming back and doing a run of a few battles after years of activity. It's a worthy victory that shows ILLo was above his peers (who DaDDiO smoked) but I wouldn't read too much into it, just like Lock's victory over DeNiro or RULE's victory over Lock. None of those battles were against the person in their prime.

I don't think that's fair to the challenger. Imo if you are ready to put out a verse you should have that verse stand for you period. Illo won that battle and it's not his fault daddio wasn't at his peak. That's on daddio.
