Rican didn't deserve the chance either IMO. I beat him twice recently, coffin dodger beat him recently, he didn't even bother to pen a verse. Why not give cats that are actually putting in work a chance.

I'll leave it up to RULE but nothing you're saying can be disputed.

Lockhart beat the person you are speaking of and asking to battle (Bobby Milk) in 2014.

Yeah, these old heavyweights can't even fuck with current era middleweights.

this one's already dealt with tho.. Lockhart/Jimmy Hoffa beat him in a 32

I mean, I would disagree pretty strongly with that decision, and Deniro's best work was a long time ago. I dont' know if he's at the level of some of the top cats today, but he is a legend and should he compete a strong competitor to win.

Nah he lost to 2014 Lockhart. No offense to Lockhart, I would place him as middleweight in 2014. Lock is generally considered upper-middleweight now. but Esso is also better than Lockhart (imo) so Esso won't have any trouble..

Depends, I think it would be interesting to see.

Let's also not forget that the talent level on this site is way higher than in the past, mainly due to the fact that everyone left is actually decent at this stuff. I remember back in like 07 when people were considered pretty good when they could string together actual lines and shit, since there were hundreds of trash accounts posting garbage everywhere. Lockhart is considered a middleweight now, but would have been rated way higher in the past simply because he would have looked better against the crowd.

Almost?

Nah man. the talent level in 2014 was way higher than it is now. We lost a lot of good talent over the past 3 years. Anybody that was active then will tell u that..

I was just generally talking about LB after say like...2010 or so. ever since it stopped being a popular site with armies of noobs everywhere spamming 'fv, vb' on every battle.

I wouldn't happen to know if the talent is getting better or worse, I've been dropping by once a year for almost a decade now to vomit out some garbage ass bars and disappear again.
