David Sirlin on Daigo Umehara

[n30g30]

This camera man sucks.

[mark2bit]

I thought this was going to be one of those silly videos where someone places David Sirlin on top of Daigo Umehara

[roggy12345]

yes he is special, he is asian

[Calwah]

just kicking back at a gym

[excaliburomega]

pussy face

[AlphaQSilly]

Who is this daigo dick rider?

Poongko > Daigo

[qqquake]

@AlphaQSilly fuck who the fuck is Poongko, he just won a match. remember the past.

[NY5tillMiCASA]

@AlphaQSilly who is this hater?

[playtoyx]

@AlphaQSilly You'd be insane to deny what either of those players have accomplished. Why must people knock others down to praise someone else?

[ACTUALLYrussell]

@AlphaQSilly poonkgo dick rider coz he won one match.....did you forget how daigo after evo beat him 22-8 then 10-6....thats what i thought

[SamosIMP]

So Daigo is Flash Gordon

[JohnnyBoy933]

I was expecting gay porn..fix the title

[Rewonn]

I like how he says "I don't know what to say" after 4 minutes 19 seconds of talking about Daigo. It's the way of the beast, he can't be explained and therefore he cannot be tamed.

[SeventhSun]

@Rewonn

Ah I see... so that's how it is. Thanks!

[Ch0colat3Cr0wn]

last uchiha

[pratikh]

I like how they are interviewing at a gym... so random.

[Chaldean4life91]

description is very wrong. Sirlin is wrong. Daigo is not the best of all time (not in SF2 anyways). ever heard of Tomo, Sirlin?

[Xecutionner2K]

@Chaldean4life91

OFC, in SUPER TURBO, the level has been the highest ever. Daigo has been beaten in this game, clearly. Because the old vets only played super turbo and sticked to it.

Daigo get recognizion you know why ? He plays 24/7 every games. Other don't, even though some are better than him.

[Chaldean4life91]

@Xecutionner2K

yea thats why i clearly stated in SF2 Daigo was not the best of all time. but your right though, im not disagreeing with you. when it comes down to whos been the top in almost every fighting game its clear Daigo is the best.

[SuperLoligator]

@Chaldean4life91 You can't call Tomo the best at SF2. He stopped playing when Super SF2 came out, before players where traveling internationally.

[Chaldean4life91]

@SuperLoligator

i CAN call him the best because of one simple fact. you eve heard of a guy named Jeff Schaeffer? this guy was on over 10 year break...was playing a shitty irritation of ST (the one on AE edition where Blanka isnt the same) and still perfected Daigo a bunch of rounds. he totally outplayed him. wanna hear the best part? Schaeffer said Tomo was 10X stronger then he was...to the point of saying in the OG days no one could touch Tomo except Mike Watson...but Tomo was still better.

[SuperLoligator]

@Chaldean4life91 Daigo & Schaeffer went back and forth the few times they did play, & like you said Schaeffer was rusty. Just because A>B doesn't mean A>C. Tomo's the best in many's opinion, but he quit too early (b4 ST) for us to find out.

[Chaldean4life91]

@SuperLoligator

Schaeffer had the better win rate, plus not to mention getting a lot of perfects on him. anyways your theory is right in a way. A>B doesnt mean A>C, so i will say this. Tomo is better then Daigo in SF2 (even though he never played for long). in a hypothetical fight... i think Tomo would dominate in a match between him and Daigo.

[MrHyerty]

@Chaldean4life91 daigo started playing in the st days. Whereas tomo is just oldschool sf2. When super turbo came out, he could hardly beat Mike watson. Thats why he quit.

[HakeroTurkishBoy]

suck daigos balls you ass face

[mynameistnb]

daigo's got better mindgames and he reads people well. nuff said.

[russiankgbagent9]

IT'S BIFF FROM BACK TO THE FUTURE!!

[evilaj2010]

@eatshroomzallday I will answer it once you know how to spell correctly.

[evilaj2010]

@eatshroomzallday Oh really? I thought HDR was short for Hot Dogs Raw. Moron, learn how to spell.

[evilaj2010]

@eatshroomzallday It's HDR and not a port of ST you moron, if you want to play ST then feel free to do so on classic mode.

[vpholwanna]

I was hoping for a four second video of him saying "Niggers crazy."

[Jonassoe]

What are you doing at the gym?

[j0nmelb]

that rooster sound at 0:32 scared the fk out of me!

[ikillcops]

is there a reason this interview is going on in a gym??

[yellowhelloable]

WTF! David looks like a young version of Bill Clinton lol

[iorilamia]

im jealous you got to play him in guilty gear T_T

[SuckXmyXchickeN]

There is an explanation. He sold his soul to the devil.

[playtoyx]

@SuckXmyXchickeN then he played him for it back. He now has his soul back.

[Triskitout]

@playtoyx Wait, that's only death.

[SyaoLin213]

LOL @ Daigo spamming DP in Guilty Gear and winning. DP's really aren't that solid as anti-airs in the game. Takes some raw skill to be able to crush people using just that.

[strongnoob]

BEASTS ARE BIG, BUT YOU CAN KNOCK THEM DOWN.

[mrmacross]

Why was this shot in some apartment complex gym? So random...

[captainflapjacks]

your lack of a chin indicates that this is your first time in a gym

[YourHomieHenry]

@captainflapjacks  LMMFAO!!!!

[akathetruthteller]

dude, daigo's combo execution is more than very good. maybe he doesn't like to do some crazy combos in game very often. but look at him does the ryu ssf4 trials in ssf4. i mean he did it some easy. plus i haven't seen nobody in game did that

c.mp + c.hp+dp + FADC + ultra consistently!! shut up david!

[SELG88]

@akathetruthteller he has being doing the same motions for over a decade,so how do you expect him to miss a goddman combo dude. he sometimes fucks up his combos. in terms of fighting game execution kof or vf are harder

[xXxSeTTriPxXx]

@akathetruthteller he said it was good,but not the best in japan.ryu combo's are not that hard to pull off compared to other characters like viper or cammy.and it's pretty ez to setup ryu combo's since his pokes and footise game is so godlike.his combo execution and dex is nowhere near sako's.the dude is telling the truth but isn't not good enough for you daigo dick riders.he said his one of the best,everybody got holes in there game.

[WarriorsAnonymous08]

@akathetruthteller you are aware this was filmed along time ago right? i dont think sf4 was out except for arcades. fan boys like you werent on daigos nuts yet

[StBeasty1]

Daigo is legend

[gt22]

just ask him how many hours he practises a day man. fighting games are very psychological so it's not all about combo execution. and daigo HAS lost to people, not casually. if he was undefeated until now, then i'd understand SOME of the exaggerations people are making. But it's gone beyond that. Fans need to calm down a bit.

[whyldephaier]

@gt22 just because he's lost doesnt mean he deserves any less credit. the stories about him arent even that crazy. people call him a beast, and thats what he is. he's not a god and no one calls him that. i'd say the praise he gets is justified

[gt22]

@whyldephaier i'm not saying he doesn't deserve credit. I was talking about his fans and how some describe him - i'm guessing u haven't heard them judging by ur last comment. In other sports, professional athletes are not talked about like this.

[19TSEliot48]

Justin Wong met David Sirlin in Central Park one time in New York City. Read all about it on Wong's Twitter.

[c0dec]

It's Voodoo

[MaxPDavies]

description says it all "tries"

[cliffburton333]

[El6t6one]

Interesting insight into what he isn't, Sirlin thinks that deep shit.

[bsmcnair]

Dat yomi.

[bobaryanmage]

Nice vid 

[polarity55]

STOP LAUGHING

[Kuya1991]

Daigo was playing Street Fighter 2 in his mothers womb.

[Step2Thiz]

@Kuya1991 LOL you damn right lol.

[echo1v]

Good story, brah... no really it is, I'm not being sarcastic :)

[woofycakes]

Sirlin at the gym FTW

[JapkoKellyConnection]

@woofycakes yeah he's at the gym but he's obviously not there to work out

[DannyCybar]

The answers in the letters of his Family / Surname

D A I G O = I A GOD |^_^|

Peace

[IEOA]

@DannyCybar

Daigo is his first name. Umehara is his family name.

[DannyCybar]

@IEOA

Oops, my bad man. I meant to type "first name". I just woke when i typed that LOL.

Anyway, what i meant to say was DAIGO rearranged I A GOD.

Hence the incredible skills.

Peace.
