I don't think Hayao is really any better than YSB, I think Hayao's greater success probably comes from his more conventional style.
The fact that YSB consistently fares so well with such an absurdly aggressive strategy is phenomenal, I think. I love Hayao, but his typical watch/react style is far easier to maintain against other pros than YSB's out-and-out rampaging berserker style.
I agree with your comments about fighting KO on paper though (even if Hayao did rape KO at SBO3).
@GargantuanBreadfruit so 2 matches are enough to decide which one is better? Considering they probably play(ed) dozens of matches in the arcades every week, I don't think so. Even if they didn't, 2 matches don't come even slightly close to judge players, else J would be the best player in the world, right?
I was just responding to the comment by Jankenpop. All I wanted to do was say that Hugo's not necessarily always "fucked" in this match up. And KO was a damn amazing Yun to boot.
no one beats kungfu style !!!

1:47 I was looking forward to a Keeper Jin. But that works too, I guess.

Watch KO vs Hayao then make your call.

Hayao's a better Hugo, but in this fight YSB would fare better. His almost reckless parrying and poking kept KO off-balance in the first two rounds.
Credit to KO, though -- even when he's about to lose, he doesn't run away and build his super meter.

Decent Hugos often upset that matchup though.

@Jankenpop No. Any good player stands a chance, it's just that Yun has it easy.
