He finally met his end in season 2 after 47 assassinated him in the ring during a last man standing match.

Episode 6

In the middle of the match between 47 and Battler, none other than Max Payne, now bald and wearing brazilian clothes, runs in to attack Battler. However, even this has no effect as Battler still manages to beat 47, who is now dazzled by being defeated twice by such an unimpressive looking opponent.

Episode 7
It turns out, Payne wasn't really killed by 47, but was merely pretending to fill out the contract and was having a vacation in brazil. In reality, they are good friends, and their real objective is Battler Ushiromiya.

The cause of this is that he once cornered 47 during a police investigation, and he offered Payne a chance to meet the murderers of his family and enact revenge. Ever since they have been friends, and when his contract told him to kill his best friend, he simply couldn't do it.

Episode 8

47 took the mental warfare to the next level, decided to create a phrase that would rival Battler's BCW, he wore a hat that said BIG, for "Battler Is Gay", and had prepared an all new speech.

He had Max fight him this time, but not even this could stop him.

Episode 8.5

In some alleyway, a battered Man and an Assassin lay down, defeated once again. They failed another contract to defeat their target. How could we fail? We are the best Assassin and Vigilante, forming a Tag Team group. That should cover all of each other's weaknesses. It's all the fault of that bloody haired Japanese man, we should have been able to kill him and fulfill our contract. Weren't we good enough? We always terminated our targets up until this point. Maybe this isn't our thing anymore. But what do we do then? Nowhere to go... I... don't know. Another contract, if we can pull another job we should be back in the game, and we won't fail next time. Yeah...

Season 3
During the Dimensional Merge, Payne recovered his hair.

Episode 3

47 thus decided to send a video to Battler while Payne records; bragging about his free time with his championship and mocking his defeat at the hands of Darkholme. He mentions that next week some losers will fight to determine who is next on his list, but such easy contracts are boring, and even him would put more of a fight.

Episode 6

Max decided to enter "Battler's" room to teach him a lesson to about beating his friend 47, but it seems it was actually a trap for him set by "Battler" and now he's missing.

Episode 9
