Not as impressive as Paul's feats.

I don't care. No where in my statement did I say they were more impressive. I simply pointed out his ability to downplay feats to benefit others.

Another reason why games versus is going down hill.

Alright, though I didn't say you did. 13jockey

I still see Paul having better feats.

Blame the emu.

This isn't related to the fight per se, but Paul doesn't brawl Sado22

some of his movements are a little brawlish but hey, maybe that's just me. 😄

Why must you always twist everything up?

i'll just tell you why you are wrong.

Sagat fought and beat Dan Hibiki's father. The fight cost him his eye. Dan's father was actually very strong.

you people always talk about feats and proved facts. what is known about Dan's father? nothing. all we know is that he was a good fighter. but how good? at what level could he possibly be if he was beaten to death? and don't even tell me that he's very tough just cuz he took out Sagat's eye. that is not a feat. its like me telling you that Terry is too tough because he scared Geese up.
so its unimpressive.

He lost to Adon and yet Adon is the fighter that ends up weeks in a hospital.

which is exactly what i said...unfortunately its considered a feat.

Sagat owned Ryu in SF1. The fight was pretty much over, and then Ryu cheapshotted the crap out of Sagat with the mesatsu go shoryuu.

it was the metsu shoryuken actually.
and Ryu was a guy who was fighting for the first time outside his box of dojo dorkness, was young, inexperienced, a rookie while Sagat was stronger, faster and everything else. so don't tell me that beating up a 23 year old rookie is a feat.

hence Sagat really has no feats to write home about. Paul on the other hand does.

He was a good fighter. That is all we know about him. I can't gauge his level because nothing is known about him.

So...you're right about that.

I don't think it should be discarded though. Sagat simply let Adon beat him to satisfy Adon's ego.

Thanks for correcting me. I am far from a SF expert and all those special moves are hard to memorize.

True. However Ryu did make it to the finals in order to fight Sagat. For a rookie her performed quite well.

I am not trying to change your opinion in regards of Sagat.

he lost to adon because he wasn't focused. he was too pissed with ryu and his disgrace. its impressive that he still managed to hospitalize adon but then not TOO impressive since Adon was the guy who Ryu beat in a single move in SF1 🙄

try kongou-koku-retsu-zan 😠
if i was akuma it'd take me a day to do the move and a month to do with while yelling out the name

not takign anything away from rookie ryu. just stating the difference in their skill levels.
see ya

Feats:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------

Durability: Sagat survived a metsu Shoryuken from Satsu no Ryu without dying. Note he was caught by suprise meaning he took the maximum damage possible from said attack.

Experience: Sagat became the God of Muay Thai as a teenager, when he defeated the previous God of muay thai Nuah Kahn. Sagat is/was considered the national hero of Thailand. Oh, byw Go Hibiki (Dans father) was a good fighter:

When he was defending his first title, he was challenged by an unknown
but skilled fighter.

When he was defeated by Ryu, he went on a rampage destroying Street fighters

Originally posted by Sado22

Adon lost like that because he got too cocky.

when he fought Ryu, he got cocky and Ryu just took him out with a
single shoryuken, and he was eliminated from the tournament

Please do not underestimate Adon when he could do this:

Oh, Btw:

Sagat was undefeated before he loss to Ryu.

I thought about Go Hibiki for a while...and I'd say at the very least he was better than Ryu was during the first street fighter tournament. Capcom made it clear Sagat had Ryu defeated without trouble, and Go Hibiki's match with Sagat was so brutal to the point that Sagat lost his eye and Hibiki lost his life.

That's because Go kept aiming for Sagat's eye, which was already bad in the first place. When Go Hibiki gouged Sagat's eye out he got mad and beat him so bad that his internal organs were all ruptured. He later died at the hospital.

who only happens to be the unofficial winner of Tekken3. but that's not a feat.
-who can KO bears with one hit. but that's not a feat.
-who can shatter boulder to dust and walls to bits without using his full strength. btu that's not a feat.
-he stalemated with kazuya. but that's not a feat.
-he took on and defeated a god of war. but that's not a feat.

hence Sagat wins since SF fighters always win. i mean, sure paul has been fighting since childhood is a master of brawling and judo, has taken down monsters and gods and part demons while being an ordinary human..............but it doesnt matter since he's up against an SF fighter with multiple "feats".

Cut it out Sado, not one person in this thread said his feats were unimpressive. I for one respect Paul Pheonix and believe he has what it takes to beat Sagat. But, he needs to get close.

-Sagat defeated the God of muay Thai as a teenager
-He's the greatest Muay Thai fighter in the history of the Street Fighter Universe
-Sagat would have one the First Street Fighter tourney had he nnot been robbed by a cheap shot
-He was undefeated before he lost to Ryu
-Survived a Metsu Shoryuken

Also, Juni & Juli have analyzed almost every Street Fighters capabilities in the form of BP & SP

Note:
Sagat: BP 12600 SP 10900
Zangief: BP 11400 SP 12100

Sagat has more biscep power than Zangief, a man who wrestles with bears for fun and breaks barbells. Not saying Sagat can automatically do the same, but it's food for thought.

Ok. Do you agree with my assessment? At least he was smart enough to target Sagat's weakpoint. Something Ryu, unless proven wrong, failed to attempt in Street Fighter's final.

Ryu, sucked in alpha, alot of fighter should have been able to beat him. I dunno if that makes him more skilled than Ryu, but he's skilled nonetheless.

Ok. I'll stop trying to gauge Go Hibiki's level.

You don't have too, because sagat was undefeated back then. We know he's skilled becuase:

-He never lost
-Defeated the previous God of Muay Thai as a teenager. This is a big deal because in Street Fighter, teenagers are always weak.
-He wanted to be the greatest fighter in the world and hosted the first world warrior tournament. He made it to the finals, and would have won.
-Greatest Muay Thai fighter in history of the Street Fighter Universe.
-He's on par with Third Strike Ryu

Durability: Sagat survived a metsu Shoryuken from Satsu no Ryu without dying. Note he was caught by suprise meaning he took the maximum damage possible from said attack.

Paul survived fighting bears without even a lasting scar...that's impressive aint it not.

Experience: Sagat became the God of Muay Thai as a teenager, when he defeated the previous God of muay thai Nuah Kahn. Sagat is/was considered the national hero of Thailand. Oh, byw Go Hibiki (Dans father) was a good fighter:

Paul's been fighting for 48 years and even after being around 50 he is at the top of his game and was still undefeated till Tekken3...TWENTY YEARS LATER. He was practically unbeaten till T4...at the age of 48 and even that was because he wasn't focused after being ripped off as badly as he was in T3. also Paul is an American national hero and a role model for various dojo (tekken4 ending). He's also not only unbeaten in the Tekken tournaments till Tekken4 but also unbeaten as a street fighter.

he could be beating up lameass competitors for all we know. after all SF1 mainly had losers in it who couldn't even take out a talented dojo dork. tell me this when at least ONE of these fighters actually has a name.

[quote]Adon lost like that because he got too cocky.


he has always been cocky. he lost.

Please do not underestimate Adon when he could do this

he couldn't even destroy the head properly. don't make me laugh. but fine...at least he's not as much of a puss as i thought he was. granted out of courtsy.

Sagat was undefeated before he loss to Ryu.

takuma was unbeaten till he met ryo, Geese was unbeaten till he met Ryo, Krauser went on a rampage of beating KNOWN fighters with a NAME and was unbeaten till he met Terry, Rugal was unbeaten till he met Kyo etc. etc. etc.
don't bring up such useless things. oh and Paul was unbeaten for 48 years in ALL tournies that he took part in.

Cut it out Sado, not one person in this thread said his feats were unimpressive. I for one respect Paul Pheonix and believe he has what it takes to beat Sagat. But, he needs to get close

no YOU cut it emp. this thread was made right after the Ken-Paul thread.

Sagat defeated the God of muay Thai as a teenager

...impressive but not really a feat. Jin beat Ogre as a teen...i don't see you giving him props for it. Kyo beat rugal at 18, i hear no props. Terry beat Geese at 20. i hear no props.

He's the greatest Muay Thai fighter in the history of the Street Fighter Universe

*yawn*
Paul one of the hightiers of Tekken

Sagat would have one the First Street Fighter tourney had he nnot been robbed by a cheap shot

would have been champ of Tekken2 and tekken3 hadn't he been robbed in a worse fashion.

He was undefeated before he lost to Ryu

paul has a longer unbeaten streak...48 years and various tournaments.

Survived a Metsu Shoryuken

granted.

Never claimed it was not impressive, Sado. I know paul is strong, and this fight is close.

Just like Sagat:

-Sagat was undefeated until he fought Ryu and was cheap shotted
-He defeated the God Muay Thai as a teenager
-National Hero just like paul
-Considered the greates Muay Thai fighter in history

He destroyed the head with one blow and this was right after his fight with Sagat. You know, the one where he spent four months in the hospital.

Oh, and there is no indication that Adon was always cocky.

-Ryo
-Terry

-Geese

Have nothing to do with Paul or Sagat, please cut the Red-Herrings. Your a good debator and you do not need to resort to illogical tactics my friend. 🙂

Because Jin is a jobber, and I give Paul mad props for beating ogre.
Terry has nothing to do with this, but I feel that terry is jobber as well.

Yeah, but Namco doesn't care. I do, and I agree.

granted.

~Sado

ok 🙂

would help the fireballs and other special attacks that Sagat has ?

or his super attacks. Paul has none

yeah a punch

really? i was under the impression that it was non-canon since SFA2 takes place around an year after Sf1. oh well, i'll take your word for it.

as for the rest, fine then, we both agree then. Good fight. close fight and i'm fine with whoever you believe will win. Paul and Sagat are both great.

people disagreeing with me doesn't bother me but the underrating of Tekken characters for being 3D fighters is retarded and has to stop. THAT is what i hate.

sorry for being a little cranky but i am alternating between this and the Paul-ken thread where i am being asked to prove a fighter's movelist😛
