Because he's muthafvckin' Sagat.
Hayate, as good as he is, is no match for the Emperor. Sagat does got some speed on him (i.e., T. Blow, T. Crush, T. Raid and T. Genocide/Destroyer) and he's been fighting ever since Hayate was in diapers.
Aside from losing to Ryu (in a Dark Hadou outburst), Adon (who he could have beaten, but was pissed at Ryu) and Dan (in which Sagat threw the match), Sagat has a better win streak than Hayate as well.
- I don't care who he is.
- So because he's got some speed and since he's been fighting ever since Hayate was an infant despite of there being no proof of difference in timeline between the Street Fighter and DOA verse, he's way above Hayate? Sure.
- A better winning streak proves nothing, also. Heihachi had a better winning streak than Kazuya in Tekken 1, and lost to Kazuya. 😬
Frankly I choose winners based on showings. What showings does Sagat have besides having some moves and being tall and muscular?
