Their basic showings of skill are pretty much that of any typical japanese action game/JRPG with the high-jumping and enhanced at best leels of strength. In the long run though, Hayabusa's victories are not only higher in number, but his greatest ones aren't the result of pure CIS as is the case with Cloud and fights where he'd've gotten his ass kicked otherwise. At the very worst, Hayabusa's best wins were PIS, or at least simple ordinary plot device.
Then there's the factor of Hayabusa also not being the representative of everything that's wrong with JRPG protagonists, and their seemingly perpetual lack of masculinity.

What the **** is up with the recent Ryu Hayabusa wank?Physically, Cloud is stronger, but they are comparable in speed, with Ryu maybe being slightly faster, and Ryu has the better weapon.
Fight is close. Shall be no "rape" here today.
In what way is Cloud stronger than Ryu? He easily and quickly wields weapons larger than anything Cloud wields. He's also faster, and although he doesn't have materia his piercing void ninpo would likely be the end of Cloud.

The Buster Sword is larger than the Diabora or whatever the hell the name of that sword was from NG. FAR larger.
Cloud not only easily wields the Buster Sword, but he uses it to cut large, falling debris from buildings in half without effort. Cloud is stronger.
Not much faster.
That's nice. Too bad he does not have it.
