Gouken vs Takuma Sakazaki (as Mr. Karate)

Ansatsuken vs Kyokugenryu.

With their respective students watching in the audience, the two old men warm up before going into their stances.

Gouken pops his neck muscles, while Takuma makes sure his mask is secured.

This is going to be one hell of a match.

Hmmmm, bit of a tough call. Mr. Karate has truckloads of ki power while Gouken survived the Shun Goku Satsu.

Very very close.

It will be an epic match

I'm sticking with Gouken here.

SNK VS Capcom sucks for hyping up Takuma like that..

His power in SNK canon is far below Geese Howard or Rugal Bernstein lolz.

Gouken wins. He's just as strong (or stronger) as Shin Akuma.

Ditto. Good ****ing post!!!!!! They should have done the smart thing and just used Rugal as the boss again. Takuma just doesn't cut it & neither did the game. Gouken honestly stomps him.
