Congrats to J Wong for beating Iyo

I like that Jwong and Iyo both use characters that aren't ryu. I also like Mike Ross' Honda being in there.

Poongko definitely has what it takes to beat Justin Wong, he was just too cocky after raped Justin with those signature SA combos, countless unnecessary DPs and mistakes through out the match. Consider few in Korea can match Poongko's level, his performance was not out of the expectation.

Daigo on the other hand was just pure 'efficient', just think of who he fights in Japan in a daily basis

Daigo was baiting iyo, failed the 1st try and nearly got KOed and still keep trying, nailed it at the end, it's all about the experience

Yep, looked like master baiting to me.

Also, holy hell that j.FP, FP, EX hurricane, EX hurricane did a lot of damage (although I realise it IS sim)
