"This win means a lot to me. It is the perfect closure for this year, I have been working very hard for it. The battles weren't easy we only battled three rounds but my opponent Killa Kolya went all in. I'm very happy to take this title back home - it is dedicated to my next kid," said B-Boy Menno, representing the Netherlands.

"I didn't think about the title. I thought about growing in my understanding of dance and hip hop culture. But when I got the title, I was very happy, and it's great to take the belt. The dance will grow when you put in the hard work and know more about yourself," said B-Girl Kastet, representing Russia.
