The fan consensus heavily favors Math Hoffa, with many calling it a clear 2-1 or 3-0 victory. The unique 'no crowd' format stripped the battle down to pure lyricism, which played to Math's strengths. Fans felt his bars, personals, and schemes were much heavier and more effective than Hitman's performance-driven style, which lost impact without an audience to react to.
In a unique and unconventional presentation, Math Hoffa and Hitman Holla released a 'no crowd' version of their battle, stripping the confrontation down to its lyrical essence.
