Tony DvsMixy

In a highly anticipated clash on the Don't Flop stage, Tony D stepped up and delivered a performance that stamped his authority, proving why he's considered an elite in the UK scene. He came out swinging, showcasing that gritty, consistent style fans have come to expect, leaving little doubt in the early rounds who was dictating the pace. But don't get it twisted, Mixy wasn't just there to fill a slot.

He may have flown under the radar for some, with elements of his delivery getting 'slept on' by the crowd, but his pen was undeniable. He brought a spoken-word influenced flavor, dropping creative schemes, including a standout alphabet flip in the third that had heads nodding. Ultimately, Tony D's veteran presence and relentless barrages over the first two rounds secured the clear decision.

However, Mixy's third-round surge and overall improved showing from previous outings earned him props, leaving battle rap connoisseurs curious about his next move. This battle was a solid showing for both emcees, with Tony D proving he's still a problem and Mixy showing he's got more than a few tricks up his sleeve.
