About
Shotty Horroh has battled since 2011 in several different leagues including Don't Flop and KOTD. In June 2013 he announced he would not be battling in DF again. Shotty Horroh is considered by many to be the best battler in the UK. His unique blend of URL style threats, chillling word play and sharp freestyling ability make him one of the most internationally respected batters of Don't Flop
Before his first ever battle, Shotty Horroh's debut was already well anticipated, due to the Manchester MC being well recognised in the rap scene for his music. Shotty Horroh began his battling career at his own event where he faced off against Grind Time legend and fan favorite Dizaster. Shotty gave a strong performance to beat a clearly underprepared Diz. Shotty then went onto face Don't Flop legend Oshea on Lab Battles, in a promo match up showing that even after two battles he could still clash with the top spitters on both sides of the Atlantic.
After Lab Battles disintegrated Shotty Horroh moved to Don't Flop and began battling from there. A string of victories led him to face off against the rapidly up and coming Unanymous. Shotty delivered a brutal onslaught of fat jokes to overcome the angry Plymouth rapper and this victory established him as a force to be reckoned with on Don't Flop. His performances were so impressive that he was invited to World Domination 3 where he effortlessly dismissed Fingaz, despite having a freestlye filled third round.
Shotty Horroh's next batte was to be his greatest. At the4th Birthday Weekend Shotty Horroh was gifted a battle with the 'undefeated' Arsonal Da Rebel. Both battlers brought exceptional performances to make this battle an instant classic and the second most viewed match on the channel. After his stunning showing against Arsonal, Shotty went onto battle numerous top tier battlers in quick succession. A match with Pat Stay on Sweden was alledgedly littered with chokes from both sides, the full extent to which being unclear as much of the footage was damaged or lost. Shotty suffered his first and only defeat in a disputed loss to Ness Lee at Blackout 3. Despite a choke from the Grind Time veteran, and a solid performance from Shotty, the judges controversially gave the win to Ness Lee. Ness himself felt the victory was undeserved going as far as to on camera immediately give the win to Shotty right after the result was announced.
Shotty battled the notorious Daylyt on UW, becoming the first British battlet to feature on the league. Shotty Horroh won over what is a normally a hostile New Jerzey crowd with an entertaining performance despite a couple of slip ups. Shotty made his fifth appearance for Don't Flop against Math Hoffa. The URL battler's much anticipated debut ended in cotroversy after a dissapointing choke and a deliberately short second round.

Shotty Horroh is confirmed to be battling at Blackout 4 for his return to battle rap where he is rumoured to be facing Aye Verb.
Controversies
Unanymous - in 2012, tensions mounted when Unan went to mention Shotty's dead relatives in their battle. Shotty threatened to 'bang him out' and Unan swiftly withdrew. Things were obviously forgiven as Unan remains part of Shotty's Mosh Pit crew
Math Hoffa - in March 2013 at their battle, Math's second round was only 50 seconds long. He announced he hadn't bothered writing anything as Shotty 'is a bum' and called time.
Don't Flop - Awarded Shotty Horroh what was to be the third title shot in June 2013 against Tony D. However, some weeks before the battle, Shotty announced due to a jaw injury he would not be battling at the planned event of Verdict.

Don't Flop - in 2013 Shotty announced that he would no longer be battling for Don't Flop. There are many rumours as to why, but his Twitter feed would suggest it is due to a dispute over money.
