Yujiro Hanma vs Master Roshi

I do think for the most part they are able to handle energy better than physical force. A lot of times the energy attacks are spread out. Since like you said, they survive explosions all the time. But with physical attacks they can concentrate a lot of force into a small area of the body. So if someone survives an explosion that levels a city it doesn't mean you need to be able to physically one shot a city in order to do physical damage.

I believe this is also why attacks like Frieza' death beam tend to be more lethal, because they are small focused beams of energy rather than a wave of energy or an explosion of energy.

Goku tanked Frieza death beam though but Frieza punches were doing damage.

Well what I said doesn't apply all the time, I'm just saying the focused energy beams are more dangerous. You can still eventually get to a power level where it doesn't hurt you, especially if you're opponent is far below you in power level.

If Frieza was on an equal power level with Goku..I think it would be wise for him to not get hit by the beam.

If they were on equal power level, it would be best not to get hit by anything from Frieza because it is going to hurt. Don't know if you've seen the Cabba vs Vegeta fight but Cabba blast received more notice from Vegeta than his punches. I think power level have a lot to do with this than anything else.

In the Funimation Dub, Raditz says that Goku's PL increases when preparing to use the Kamehameha.

Its safe to assume that the same goes for Roshi in that regard, on top of that, DB characters Physical Traits aren't nearly as good as their energy attacks.

My point stands, if Yujiro gets his hands on Roshi enough times, Roshi's done for.

Bug its doubtful that will happen due to Roshi's obvious speed advantage, as well as being able to bulk up and land some equally devastating shots.

Roshi Roshstomps

Raditz isn't ftl. Can roshi break through iron? No. Yujiro will just stand still and let roshi weak ass tire out from hitting him. Can roshi stop the baki punch? No. Do you think roshi can beat mahammad Ali junior? HE'LL DIE. Even though the writer expressed his speed at light speed, he was clearly indicating that he move faster than the human eye can keep up when compared to an average human being. Notice the fighter in front of him (kaiou, obviously faster than the human eye when up against an average human being). Baki beat him in under 5 seconds (just an estimation, but it was real quick) that means mahammad Ali is slow as hell when facing a character like baki. Remember when BAKI used super speed against yujiro and the audience couldn't keep up? Yujiro could see him, it's just his attacks has little power. He's testing his fighting ability (all through out the fight he had no chance). Now what is roshi going to do but die in under a second? But DIE in under a second.

*Open Dvampire's claims as he is on ignore*

*laugh*

*Close Dvampire's claims*

The hell did I just read.

You read yujiro winning and you getting a 0 (it means youre gone forever). Still think Andre (jehovah in human form) needs to see you? Didn't think so. You see read roshi catching bullets and yujiro not giving a **** because he's to powerful! Bye. And alllllll the way left. You know what comes next the merchant (black, and that's a metaphor).

Yujiro could be a match for Batman, Cassandra Cain and Iron Fist but he is a bug to Muten Roshi.

Given the strength difference, you're sadly mistaken. Yujiro will take roshis head and shake him on conscious.

Roshi ragdolls Sayan Saga-level characters.

GG NO RE.

Yujiro can go fight his usual street-level opponents in Hell.

Wasn't Roshi's power level like... 101 or something?

He is over 9000.

Yeah something like that but he can improve or he was hiding his true power since the beginning. That's why the scouters aren't used later in the series.

Don't compare scurbs to yujiro or his age since he spent most of his time with one fighting style. Does he know karate? No. Yujiro will smash his face and so will dopo.

Ew.

Yujiro wins.

I don't know if this discussion is dead or not, but for what it's worth, please consider this:

Speed: In DB, Roshi turned and caught all the bullets from automatic gunfire (having to react to the gunfire, turn, and then catch all the bullets from the spray).
Roshi had an entire battle with Krillin in 1 second (including exchange of attacks, a conversation, and a moment to think), while he was holding back.
Roshi can create afterimages, and blew away a superhuman with wind generated from moving his hand.

Power/strength: In DB, Roshi (ultimately) was stronger than mercenary Tao (who can throw tree trunks/stone-pillars at speeds around 10,000 KM/hr). He was stronger than Goku/Krillin's when they first came under his tutelage (and both Goku & Krillin could push a 400 Ton boulder). And of course,he obliterated the moon.

Keep in mind, this was all before he got stronger than Frieza soldiers (all at least as strong as Raditz (who was stronger than all DB characters; keep in mind, DB Goku flipped a probably 50 foot tall Piccolo, and that's really lowballing how strong DB characters were at the end of DB).

I really think Yujiro is outmatched. Yujiro is a titan in a world of characters not on the same level of the DB universe. Roshi is a respected master in world of gods and cosmic threats. DB isn't as gritty and serious as Baki the Grappler (in overall, prevalent tone), but DB still bolsters feats that are utterly greater than Baki the Grappler ever did.
