Also among the Ultimate Madness 5 competitors is three-time Champion of the Year Geechi Gotti. He reached the final of the contest, battling Rum Nitty for $100,000 at URL’s Drake-sponsored NOME XI event in June last year. The match was so close that the judges were unable to decide on a winner. Drizzy stepped up and dropped an additional $50k on the prize fund, and the two finalists walked away with a $75k bag.
