Agree completely. Two players using characters they're just completely at home with? Also, they were loose and having a bit of fun. Some dumb plays, some perfect ones.. just a good match. Bonchan had some seriously tight plays.
Year from now bonchan sagat will be a bully. I remember when tokido akuma dropped. Took him a year to perfect and now look. I like seeing these guys get their favs and enjoy playing with them.
Miguel Flores with mid tier match ups yeah but top tiers like akuma or anyone with a very fast pressure game, sagats normals are too slow and his zoning is not that great either
Watersports I agree he struggles with serious pressure but you have to be on point with anti airs. If you can reset the match back into neutral he becomes strong, have to be good with fireball timing and dp. I'm not saying hes top tier, but I've heard people say he his bad as sakura and nash
Miguel Flores really? Anyone that says that has no fundamentals; he has a fucking DP, a kara one at that and fireballs to match Guile. Just add really good footsies and reactions and you're competing with the best.
Hyoubou relax man, I agree with you I think sagat is better then most people think. I guess my post wasn't written well enough. I'm currently using sagat and I like him a lot and think hes really good. He doesnt have big comeback factor, and slow buttons but his fundamentals are better then every other character. I think hes really good, hopefully that was a better explanation for you
I bet Bonchan's sponsors told him to use Sagat as much as he can. This would bring more people to watch his fights. Even if he loses, it's so hype that it would bring a perfect balance between money and people happy. I'm sure that's a pretty good thing for everyone
8:20 HE HAVE IT HERE, I dont know if Bonchan knows this, cause Sagat is super new, but EX TIGER UPPERCUT beat clean air projectiles, that round was Bonchan if he only knew he could have go to top 8 with Sagat, anyway the fact that Bonchan put TOKIDO in match point using Sagat proves the character is not weak as people say, still is a work in progress so yes Capcom can buff him a little bit, but the King is defined strong in this game.
Kusanagikaiser999 its also week 2 of Sagat being out vs a year 2 Akuma of Akumas, Tokido in fact. The fact he managed to force a game 3 with that new of a character shows also Bonchan's foundational understanding of both character and game. Don't take away the fact that this is Sagat of Sagat's getting back on the groove. It'll take time, but he's far along already.
At 10:12 the commenantors are misleading you guys , sagat can’t combo anything from that range from st mk into VT cancel if it’s not a counter . He could have used st lp to combo but you can see he’s too far away to so his best bet was to try to throw
Putting Tokido in the ropes with a character which dropped this recently? I think he has a lot of potential. Give Bonchan some time and let's see how far he goes. Well played, both of you!!
Isso é só uma pequena prévia do que vem pela frente, podem anotar, Bonchan vai calar a boca de muita gente com o Sagat, ele bateu de frente com o Tokido com apenas 2 semanas de treinamento com 1 personagem novo, perdeu porque teve medo de arriscar mais um pouco, justamente por ainda não estar nem 50% de sua performance com Sagat, ano que vem prevejo Bonchan vencendo alguns torneios capcom.
Oh man! When I saw Tokido go in the air to air fireball. I was so hoping for the kara cancel. To wait for a crush counter. Slip right under the fireball.
This is Tongpo!!! I’m so DEAD!!! Can’t believe he made that reference! Great commentary and reference to kickboxer! Edit: the commentator says “bloodsport” he is mistaken as Chong Li is from bloodsport and Tongpo is kickboxer movie!
It's sad that Bonchan had to wait for his main character for 3 years. Just think how strong he would of been with Sagat if they would of put Sagat in on release day is Sfv. The way these gaming companies do they business practices now really hurt player's that are character loyalist. It's one of the reason I don't play Sfv and other fighting games. I'm happy for Bonchan and I hope he feels good about the way they did Sagat in Sfv.
But then the game wouldn't last this long if they did. Capcom should put MenaRD in a Cammy thong costume on the front cover. That'll get people to buy the game.
Zhi is great... to me at least. I can get people not liking his commentary style though. He tries his best to make it fun, slipping some running gags or inner jokes inbetween the match. Just that it doesn't always work.
This guy is using references that is he is clueless about. And he can't even pronounce a long-time street fighter player like Bonchan? (Especially since he is supposedly fluent in Japanese.) Come on now! He butchered his name to sound like "bonechan" at least once in this video alone.
Man, Bonchan killed it in this match but lord, Sagat's throw range in this game right now is a real issue. He was right up against Akuma and it still whiffed.
Damn bonchan dropped some confirms. He was out playing tokido all game, but he just choked up at the end of rounds. From how well he did against tokido I’dbe surprised if bonchan dropped sagat.
Paul Muad'dib this is week 2 of the character being out vs Akuma whos been out for 2 years and is being played by a veteran of the MU and character. Im not sure what more you could have expected from such a short timespan.
Well you can see the difference of the characters, sagat has a very big disadvantage, akumas normals are very op while sagats are too slow....sagat should have been the zoning character yet akuma outzoned him with fireballs.....this is why a lot of people hat sfv
Watersports i will retort with the fact Tokido has been playing and honing this character for a good two years vs Bonchan at 2 weeks. Even with how experienced Bon is in SF in general it takes time to get used to it. Sagat actually had longer range normals than Akuma and normal fireballs don't travel full screen while Sagat's does forcing commitment of red fireball. Sagat will be the zoner but you seem not to give him ample time to develop. Besides, if Bon/sagat was winning handily against Tokido. I bet you would say that Sagat has potential to be top tier/he's broken. So there's no real connection to hating SFV based on that.
Akuma e sua bagagem cheia de ferramentas, Cmp e Smk , Cmk que a hitbox vai bem longe , seu Bhp que serve como Dp e ainda tem juggle e fora seu Dflip que tem varias opções de atack e que da hit em Ex quando esta perto, ate que o sagat só andando para trás e se defendendo durou na luta.
I genuinely wonder how Sagat's zoning will fare against the characters with projectile invincible v-skills. Akuma doesn't have one. . . I'm truly curious to see how Sagat's zoning works against say Balrog, Cammy, Karin, Laura etc.
It's so amazing to see this. I was never a Bonchan or Sagat fan, but seeing these 2 together... I can't explain it but it just feels right.
Kid Matsuda Do you know the artist for your pfp?
No idea, sorry about that.
Agree completely. Two players using characters they're just completely at home with? Also, they were loose and having a bit of fun. Some dumb plays, some perfect ones.. just a good match. Bonchan had some seriously tight plays.
Year from now bonchan sagat will be a bully. I remember when tokido akuma dropped. Took him a year to perfect and now look. I like seeing these guys get their favs and enjoy playing with them.
Agreed. It's coming together for this game. Bonchan is already nasty, I can't wait to see what he has in store.
big difference with akuma and sagat though lol.
Sagat isn't as good as Akuma, and Bonchan isn't as good as Tokido.
Hotobu wasnt my point. But ok.
Tokido won evo 6 months after Akuma release and always made it to evo/capcom cup grand finals since
8:52 I'm over here clapping and cheering and the Mai cosplay literally stopped me...I was like: Oh wow
Go Bochan the king have to go forward.We always support you.
Bonchan and Nemo are ridiculous. That was a great performance.
Nemo is trash cant top shit.
Alondre Hunt when the last time you topped?
Alondre Hunt stfu
Dat Mai doe.
5:00 I got tears in my eyes. Sagat is back!
We will be back
"He's gonna wakeup tiger... like the cereal. Frosted Flakes!" Oh you
Damn..... bonchan the hype was real
I think sagat is way better then people think
Miguel Flores with mid tier match ups yeah but top tiers like akuma or anyone with a very fast pressure game, sagats normals are too slow and his zoning is not that great either
Watersports he has the best zoning in the game, period. Guile is a close second
Watersports I agree he struggles with serious pressure but you have to be on point with anti airs. If you can reset the match back into neutral he becomes strong, have to be good with fireball timing and dp. I'm not saying hes top tier, but I've heard people say he his bad as sakura and nash

I think hes really good, hopefully that was a better explanation for you
I’m so glad bonchan got his character back
“got the Jergens and the cleenex out” the best thing ive heard a commentator say in a while LMAO
God seeing bonchan and tokido go at with akuma and sagat again is amazing. Bonchan sagat is pretty sick.
"I will gift a sub if bonchan plays sagat"
Ohhh sweet summer child
Bonchan's Sagat: takes a step forward
Zhi and crowd: :O OMG WOWOWOW INCREDIBLE!!!
Street Fighter is back, Baby!
Oh?
I bet Bonchan's sponsors told him to use Sagat as much as he can. This would bring more people to watch his fights. Even if he loses, it's so hype that it would bring a perfect balance between money and people happy. I'm sure that's a pretty good thing for everyone

これだけ仕上げて大会に投入して来る…素晴らしいアパカ精度でした。勝ちたがりTVのサガット大会でコパ対空して負けたのはもう忘れて良さそうですね。サガットでプレイする事が本当に楽しいそうで何よりです。
Anyone know the name of the Mai cosplayer who shows up around the 5 minute mark?
Fb search 小菜xiao tsai or twitch search sugar_tsai.
By the way, she is RB's GF
Asa Akira
goat12733 RB?
Angel Acevedo García He is a StreetFighter player from taiwan, you can search "SFV RB" on youtube then you will know
More Mai here

For a 2 week sagat, that was god but you coyld see unfamiliarity in combo path. He coulda had it.
At 10:12 the commenantors are misleading you guys , sagat can’t combo anything from that range from st mk into VT cancel if it’s not a counter . He could have used st lp to combo but you can see he’s too far away to so his best bet was to try to throw
Love the kickboxer references. “I will BREAK you!”
Putting Tokido in the ropes with a character which dropped this recently? I think he has a lot of potential. Give Bonchan some time and let's see how far he goes. Well played, both of you!!
Sagat is only person who can out fireball Akuma besides Guile
Sagat always has had one of the best zoning ever...
this match brought me back to Tokido(Gouki) vs Bonchan(Sagat) USF4 Red Bull Kumite 2015 Grand Finals
"You maybe The King, but I am the Master of the Fist" - Akuma
HeavyMetalLink05 and I'm am the master of masterbation
Shs Zja you misspelled it...
Oblividiot Sue me
"He's Touching Himself...!"
10:21 - when two pro got overloaded with decisions
Isso é só uma pequena prévia do que vem pela frente, podem anotar, Bonchan vai calar a boca de muita gente com o Sagat, ele bateu de frente com o Tokido com apenas 2 semanas de treinamento com 1 personagem novo, perdeu porque teve medo de arriscar mais um pouco, justamente por ainda não estar nem 50% de sua performance com Sagat, ano que vem prevejo Bonchan vencendo alguns torneios capcom.

The graceful dance between a lion and a tiger.
Welcome back to the show bonchan and the Muay Thai 👑 🐅🇹🇭
A matchup as old as time itself
Bonchan is the best
Oh I get the Tong Po reference! Kickboxer, baby! You keep doin' you.
That was freaking amazing!!!! Nothing like Bonchan's Sagat!!!
Ok..the best so far for celebrate the return of Sagat!!
Does the touching of the scar do anything or is it a taunt?
It's sad that Bonchan had to wait for his main character for 3 years. Just think how strong he would of been with Sagat if they would of put Sagat in on release day is Sfv. The way these gaming companies do they business practices now really hurt player's that are character loyalist. It's one of the reason I don't play Sfv and other fighting games.

But then the game wouldn't last this long if they did. Capcom should put MenaRD in a Cammy thong costume on the front cover. That'll get people to buy the game.
With sfv gameplay design, sagat and ryu will always be mid tier...
nelly ville too many shotos on release day. Glad they waited.
Agree especially since Sagat is an old classic character, pure bullshit
Watersports
Tf r you on? Zoners like Menat and Guile are top-tier rn. Ryu’s just trash. Don’t lump him and Sagat in the same category of viability.
Did anyone else notice that Sagat is only 216lbs. Was that a capcom typo?
Sagat is 7'5" tall and only weighing 216lbs
UltimateSage101 wait wat, that's a skinny boi
He actually doesn't have a single bone in his entire body. He's pure muscles
Lmao yea. Akuma is 200 lbs and 2ft shorter... something doesn't add up here
UltimateSage101 That man like 3% body fat out here lol
the fat body is nonexistent
apart from that commentary this was fun to watch
There's always someone ragging on the commentators
When there are so many shitty commentators it's bound to happen.
Zhi is great... to me at least. I can get people not liking his commentary style though. He tries his best to make it fun, slipping some running gags or inner jokes inbetween the match. Just that it doesn't always work.

Septimiusify it's actually an English name ... Bong-chan*
Good to see bonchan with Tiger King. Always cheer for him
Good match. Bonchan is very good with only 2 weeks of training with Sagat
The mind games in this were intense
Much More entertaining than Mr Daigo 'sonic boom' matches..
Sagat is so new. Impressive how fast Bonchan take him already to the top! O_o !
I've heard old sagat mains say he plays very similar to sfiv sagat so it probably wasnt that hard
Where can I buy a good fight stick for sfv. I want something that is not expensive.
Man, Bonchan killed it in this match but lord, Sagat's throw range in this game right now is a real issue. He was right up against Akuma and it still whiffed.
Good to see bonchan back on his ish wit SAGAT!💪👍
I'm not sure why, but I just want Bonchan to win, and I bet there are many people are like this.
thios is only a week old sagat. wait until he really sinks into him.
yuske05 exactly
It was nice to see a new character.
Why doesn't Sagat's tiger have an eye patch...?
Is the audio way off sync for anybody else?
Would like to see bonchan sagat vs problem X bison. Must be awesome
Week 2 and Bonchan is a beast. All hail the worlds best Sagat!
Wow. Didn't watch SF for like 2-3 years and Bonchan is now so serious. Lol. Can't get used to it
"I body"
Damn bonchan dropped some confirms. He was out playing tokido all game, but he just choked up at the end of rounds. From how well he did against tokido I’dbe surprised if bonchan dropped sagat.
I’d be ok with referring to Sagat using Angry Scar as “touching himself.”
Esperamos años para ver esto. Genial
The commentator making references to famous tigers is Grrreat!
*Sigh* I stopped playing SF after SF4, when the game was actually fun and exciting to watch. Capcom what have you done?
Lol that one guy
Sagat would a beast in the *right* hands. Bonchan had Tokido on the ropes and then he let him live 🤜🏾👊🏾🤷🏾♂️
Paul Muad'dib this is week 2 of the character being out vs Akuma whos been out for 2 years and is being played by a veteran of the MU and character. Im not sure what more you could have expected from such a short timespan.

Commentators: I wonder if he'll use Sagat?
*Me who searched up Sagat tournament and found this*
Give it a few months and his SF5 Sagat will be deadly.
Bonchan deserves respect, but not recognizing Tokido first was pretty rude...
Bonchan’s honorable return to form.
Akuma e sua bagagem cheia de ferramentas, Cmp e Smk , Cmk que a hitbox vai bem longe , seu Bhp que serve como Dp e ainda tem juggle e fora seu Dflip que tem varias opções de atack e que da hit em Ex quando esta perto, ate que o sagat só andando para trás e se defendendo durou na luta.
looks like street fighter is back
Hold up Sagat is 7’5” and he only weighs 216? Being as big as he is he should be around 390-430.
390-430? That's a little much don't you think? 280 should be max.
Awesome! Love it.
Why people says this game don´t have footsies? real question
I genuinely wonder how Sagat's zoning will fare against the characters with projectile invincible v-skills. Akuma doesn't have one. . . I'm truly curious to see how Sagat's zoning works against say Balrog, Cammy, Karin, Laura etc.
Bison would give sagat nightmares.
SOOOOO how long until nerfed sagat and G?
I personally don't care if they nerf G or not but seriously they NEED to nerf Sagat
Bonchan ir inflitration is?
All I wanted was this akuma exo03 😭 I don't have that color, I would do anything to have it!!!
"Sagat is weak"
Bonchan: "BITCH BET!"
Remember things before covid...
Mai Shiranui knows who the King of Muy Thai is
Great set
Great Showing Bonchan. You almost had it
I miss Bonchan's Nash so much. Now Nash is totally dropped by all major players. Too bad.
Wow i was hating on sagat but he beat some respect out of me😊😊😊 bravo sir bravo
The commentators just described League of Legends in the first 10 seconds.
If they drop fei long I’m playing tournaments
"Mai from CVS2" Uhhhh
fadedsun303 CVS2 Sagat was broken
damn. great play from Tokido
Sagats english voice is so badass dude
Disappointed. I really wanted bonchan to win.
Irwin Archer maybe later on when the two have synced up some more.
Tiger, tiger knee, tiger Uppercut, tiger assault, tiger scar... Better just call Sagat the Tiger-Man. :P
Who's that kid commentator
I don't care both them, I just watching Mai on behind
We sure "216 lbs" isn't a typo? Lol. I'd believe 316 at 7'5".
I understand the casters are excited but seriously. You're YELLING INTO A MICROPHONE.
Ryan Smith nigga it's the FGC get sum knowledge
Commentators or casters. This ain't a Harry Potter fucking video
The announcer doesn't sound very neutral.
Damn, that's a nice Mai cosplay
