The judges for the title shot were Ogmios, Dialect, Big T, 100 Bulletz, Tony D, Copywrite and Tenchoo. All seven voted for Soul.
This is the Scottish emcee's first defense since winning the vacant title over Cee Major at last year's "Checkpoint 2." Since then, he's had several battles in Don't Flop (and beyond) but this is the first time the title has been on the line.
Heretic (Don't Flop's official 2015 Newcomer Of The Year) was running BattleRap.com's Twitter account at the event and gave a play-by-play of the battle while Eurgh live-streamed the first round from both emcees on Facebook.
Who do you think will win the @DontFlop title match today?

1, 2, like a mic check ain't what the guy meant

You and your woman tied a knot in the bandages you put her in

Standing at the altar, before she'd spoken her vows

She had a hole in her face before she opened her mouth

You end your round with 'bitch' cos you're such a bitch you have to pretend you're battling a woman

He didn't even name you homie, just sent me a snake emoji

Soul is going WILD right now. Long ass scheme on the same multi with a punch every bar. This is wild
— BattleRapDotCom (@battlerapdotcom) April 23, 2016
Raptor corrected Soul on a mispronunciation.. Soul had pre-empted it and ran with the new pronunciation on a new scheme. This is too much
— BattleRapDotCom (@battlerapdotcom) April 23, 2016
Soul scheming so long it's impossible to put in 140 characters. All fire though

Soul still on fire, back to back punches

Does he even rap?
Crowd: nah he's the DJ
You couldn't even beat the guy who produced the beats you rap on
— BattleRapDotCom (@battlerapdotcom) April 23, 2016

Soul hit him with the "behave yourself" and that's a wrap. I don't think this is particularly debatable
