It's called opinion, which every one of us here have.
And until you provide proof that UDON show canon abilities that isn't an article typed up by a fan, UDON is as noncanon as Dragonball GT.
To start you off, you may want to look up an official link owned by Capcom, or information in a game, game booklet or an interview (documentary) with Capcom.

I already have proved it, in an interview it was blatantly said, and the comics are officially licensed by Capcom.If you think that all of that means nothing, you are an idiot.
And once again, official info (from a magazine, game manual, whatever) and not crap like Fuuma showed earlier (not that he was using it as evidence. He pointed out that it was crap, and it was).
This:
The Street Fighter comic is not canon to the authentic history compiled
in this guide. Udon employees even said so. The storylines are checked over
by Capcom of Japan and approved, but that doesn't mean it's canon. It just
means that Capcom of Japan wants to make sure Udon isn't butchering their
characters etc etc. It's a good comic, though, I feel, and there are many
details in it where Udon (the comic's creators) ask for details from Capcom
regarding various things.The creators and writers are more interested in keeping close to the
spirit of Street Fighter than the canon of it, since the latter could be
hard to do and also inflexible in a comic, so the comic isn't exactly a
good source of canon. They also stated that they had to go by the US
names, including Shotokan instead of Ansatsukan for Ryu's fighting style.
Finally, Nash is named Charlie Nash in the comic because they decided
that was basically the best way to please both people who preferred Charlie
and people who preferred Nash. His name in the actual canon still isn't
Charlie Nash, though. The comic I think is really good, a great
read, and I love the art, but just to stave off any possible feature
e-mails, I need to say that ANYTHING in the comic which seems off from the
canon probably means it really is indeed a liberty the writers took. I
still recommend it, though, because it's pretty cool and has nice art.
So if you can real quick post the evidence again, that would be great. Frankly, I want to know if UDON is CANON (get it 😛)?
And once again, official info (from a magazine, game manual, whatever)
*Edit* on second thought, there isn't even anything in there saying the abilities are the same. "Butchering" could mean they don't want them to make the characters look so differently. It could mean other things also, ofc.
That all is from Tiamat, and this was from what he himself feels, his opinion, not facts. Tiamat has a bad habit of putting opinions in his FAQs.
And I already refuted it.
It is common knowledge that UDON's storyline does not follow the strict canon. The characters personalities and abilities are the same though.
