Morning of Owl is dominant as a crew. This is evident in their unique and amazing routines. They have won multiple major competitions this year, such as R16 and UK B-Boy Championships. However, as individual bboys, they are not as dominant. You can argue Pocket is the most dominant powerhead, but that alone will not win a bboy competition, unless its WPS. With that said, that's how they lost the tiebreaker. Also, I feel that the judges might have seen a lot of MOO's routine in other battles and were not as impressed.
morning of owl might be using different styles then clean bboying, but everything is an evolution. Bboying dident have certain moves untill the past years, some are invented others are perfected... Clearly MOO had more style, flow, skill, attitude and power then the russians... Imo the russians looked like newbs
Siracusa Foertune Russia has alot of style, really clean, really good overall bboys, Top 9 crew is one of the best in the world, an im not just sayin that, you have to know alot about bboyin before you can say someone STINKS cause he all sucked at one time when your a bboy Morning of Owl is a good crew but overall they cant match Top 9.
Siracusa Foertune Russia may very well stink in some places like anywhere on earth but Top 9 most definetely do not stink, the judges will back me up on that one!
To me, I feel as if top 9 was dominating the flow of the battle making MOO play there game. However morning of owl took the battle. But top 9 won both tie breakers. There shouldn't have even been a tie.
Robin must have felt like a million bucks after that tie break. He had moves, stamina, was on beat, on rhythm, and knew it the whole time. As much as I've loved MoO's evolution the last year or so, they had nothing that could beat Robin's final set - straight up on fire.
I was there it was really a great final ! Pocket is getting better and better no matter what some people say about his sets being the same (which I think is not true). Too bad Morning of Owl didn't win this battle, each B-Boy in their crew is really unique and their routines were awesome. ( I remember the crowd went crazy after each of MOO's set )
Says the guy who uses and emphasizes the term "breakin". Originally, it is called "bboying", so stop acting like you know shit, you ignorant eboy. MoO did deserve that win, no tie-break was needed. Haters like you always love to watch and wish for a champion's downfall, so your opinion is invalid to begin with. Amateur.
Kneefur Irrelevant. The definition of the term is not the argument here, but rather the poor and wrong use of it in a pathetic attempt to come across as knowledgeable, effectively appealing to ignorance.
One of those odd battles where one crew clearly wins the battle and the other gets the tie-breaks. Still, MoO deserved the win IMO, was a sick final either way though.
I was there. Imo MOO took the battle, besides their video wasn't so good but Top 9 video was really really bad. Melting Force video was the best, I hope it will uploaded soon.
I thought MoO got the edge during the battle. But Top 9 definitely won the tie-breaker for sure! I laughed when Robin pointed at the word "Breaking" after Issue's set. Just glad to see Top 9 still dancing!
both crews looked hella tired or haven't been practicing or something. bboy cho looked like he was sick or just got over being sick. he didn't look 100%.
I can't believe this! 1st Battle in R16 2009 Gamblerz vs Hustle Kidz This is 2nd Battle that I disagree!!! (Both times we got Ducky as Judge but That can not help anything)
This was a interesting battle. Morning Of Owl is a very experimental crew who have been getting heat, because many ppl don't classify them as a "pure" b-boy crew. Then you have top 9, a very well rounded crew with members with different styles but stresses foundation. Robin pointing to the breakin sign is significant because b-boying is getting more proggresive, but it's straying too far from the essence. Yeah Morning of the Owl are pleasing on the eye but top 9 just give me more b-boy attributes
I really think robin sucks really hard , he thinks he is better thab he really is , he does some novice stuff , and at the last tie break issue did movements more difficults than the shit robin did, thats why im very dissapointed with the decission ! , MOO clearly WON!
Bboying in a football field size area. A looooooooooot of room per solo. Enough for massive choreography. I reallize this myght be for spectators better view. It's about optimal choice. Am I only one that thinks when crews are that far away from each other battle looses flava. I dig that space is very valuable for a bboy, but damn in some parts it looks like tha bboy dancing is lonely on a stage :DD It bugs me. Loosing connection and intrigue...
you're right. but powerheads like pocket need a lot of space while doing his moves. you can see him crashing into the judges when the stage is small. sure it doesn't have the cypher feel that a lot of people would prefer, but i think it's the best choice to have a big stage
Top 9 lost both semis and this final battle imho, not hating but I guess it's the result of having 3 european judges, i.e. Lamine judgement at the last bc one
Quoi top 9 gagnant c'est du délire ta juste a lire l'ai com pour voir que y a un souci, Pocket y c'est barrer des qu'il a vue le résulta et je le comprend WTF
Bboy pocket is great dont get me wrong, but all he can do is power moves THATS IT!!! Where is his floorwork? Schypher?? Anything else besides power move flares and halos? DIVERSIFICATION is why Top 9 won the battle IMO
personally on the second tie breaker, i felt like top 9 didn't send out the best trump and shouldn't have won the round. He looked repetitive, top rock wasn't creative, dynamics was SOSO. Morning of the owl should've won it. Unless i didn't see something please tell me, i don't wanna sound biased
WTF ! Russia win ! BWJS = Big World Joke Series. When I see this battle, it´s not a battle for MOO, but a training... What´s moment who top 9 was better than MOO in this battle, never.. Incredible judges.
For all persons who talks that the morning of owl are winners and more stylish, have better flow and etc. Please improve your knowledge about Hip-Hop. Someone say's that the MOO is a evolution of breaking. NO ! old school/classic bboying will always be with a true bboys. Bboy - Keepers/Saviors of Traditions ! Of Hip-Hop ! and the TOP-9 are keepers of hip-hop culture. But not the MOO. yes they have some originality because of they "monkey hand works", but this is not breaking/bboying ! Thats a bullshit ! And my opinion, in korea are only few real true bboys. For example: BORN ! Watch for dancing of Born ! and watch for dancing of Issue. who is the true bboy ? ofc Born. So after all of that, I want to say that the knowledge and history of Hip-Hop 'tis a key to the soul of breaking/dj/mc/graf. !!!
Ok morning of owl is a crew .. CREW IS ALLL ROUTINE AND SOLO!! And for the all people see that competition dont like the result... The crew no is only solo if want a solo competition have 1vs 1 no crew... Russian have nice moves but i preffer MOO
![BOTY 2012 KOREA - PRELIMINARY - FINAL - FUSION MC VS MORNING OF OWL [BOTY TV]](/img/n.gif)
I'm Russian, and I can't believe that Top 9 won. They were much worse than MOO
worse isn't the right word for describe a crew
I shit in the mouth of the mother of Russian

Brett Ulmer russia stinks

Lol Robin at the end points to the 'Breakin' in Breakin World Series.
gangly giraffe
KOREA WIN !
morning of owl definitely won the battle before tie break; top 9 definitely won the tie break
To me, I feel as if top 9 was dominating the flow of the battle making MOO play there game. However morning of owl took the battle. But top 9 won both tie breakers. There shouldn't have even been a tie.
Robin must have felt like a million bucks after that tie break. He had moves, stamina, was on beat, on rhythm, and knew it the whole time. As much as I've loved MoO's evolution the last year or so, they had nothing that could beat Robin's final set - straight up on fire.
Michael Valdez Too bad robin has a shitty attitude
The DJ did such a good job at this event.

Battle=Morning of Owl
Tie Brak was actually a tie
Second Tie Break=Morning of owl
What is the 2nd & 3rd song called.?
morning of owl definitely won the battle before tie break
куй тебе
Flying Buddha during the tie breaker round…dear God I thought for sure Top 9 would win then and there. Thats a bboy who is seriously underrated.
Korea Won it!
MOO should have won in my opinion...
At 25:54 final tie
Insane. How the heck did MOO lose? That was like the Lakers vs the girls JV.
MOO for me ..top 9 not a standard to MOO for this final
Топы, браво!
I was there it was really a great final ! Pocket is getting better and better no matter what some people say about his sets being the same (which I think is not true).
Too bad Morning of Owl didn't win this battle, each B-Boy in their crew is really unique and their routines were awesome. ( I remember the crowd went crazy after each of MOO's set )
KOREA WIN

***** the truth is: u cant win over TOP 9 by this moves...the end
artujketube
yes u can. Top 9 is way past their prime. They may be good but they're definitely not close to being top-notch or unbeatable.
dj?
One of those odd battles where one crew clearly wins the battle and the other gets the tie-breaks. Still, MoO deserved the win IMO, was a sick final either way though.
I shit in the mouth of the mother of Russian
one judge didn't see the movement 4:59
that DJ really sucks. btw, top9 clearly won
I liked the DJ. What was wrong with it?
NateZen music. break beat
denkorea
Yeah after watching it a 2nd time you are right. This DJ sucked.
TOP 9 ALL DAY
russia stinks
NOPE!!! LOL
I was there. Imo MOO took the battle, besides their video wasn't so good but Top 9 video was really really bad. Melting Force video was the best, I hope it will uploaded soon.
Morning of Owl kills it before tiebreak !
I thought MoO got the edge during the battle. But Top 9 definitely won the tie-breaker for sure! I laughed when Robin pointed at the word "Breaking" after Issue's set. Just glad to see Top 9 still dancing!
both crews looked hella tired or haven't been practicing or something. bboy cho looked like he was sick or just got over being sick. he didn't look 100%.
I can't believe this!
1st Battle in R16 2009 Gamblerz vs Hustle Kidz
This is 2nd Battle that I disagree!!!
(Both times we got Ducky as Judge but That can not help anything)
Moo won by a land slide
what the f..k.. top 9 winner.... ?

Morning of owl is better than the top nine

Robin has bad sportsmanship
Battle: Tie
Tie Break: Moo
Second Tie Break: Top 9
And yes Morning of Owl were poor without their routines. They must learnt from this.
what!? top 9 winner?? moo is the won !
Korea won, for sure !
Crowd set on stun. They are the worst.
Top 9 lost both semis and this final battle imho, not hating but I guess it's the result of having 3 european judges, i.e. Lamine judgement at the last bc one
seriously judges?? ö.Ö from what i can tell is that the Morning of Owl crew won!!
That russian flavor!...Top 9 all day!
Quoi top 9 gagnant c'est du délire ta juste a lire l'ai com pour voir que y a un souci, Pocket y c'est barrer des qu'il a vue le résulta et je le comprend WTF

chibi
Bboy pocket is great dont get me wrong, but all he can do is power moves THATS IT!!! Where is his floorwork? Schypher?? Anything else besides power move flares and halos? DIVERSIFICATION is why Top 9 won the battle IMO
+Alejandro Teteria Yeah it wasn't bboy Pocket vs Top 9, you blind. It was MORNING Of OWL vs Top 9.
personally on the second tie breaker, i felt like top 9 didn't send out the best trump and shouldn't have won the round. He looked repetitive, top rock wasn't creative, dynamics was SOSO.
Morning of the owl should've won it.
Unless i didn't see something please tell me, i don't wanna sound biased
+Alopex Lagopus see back how robin play with the music and footwork, he's killing it...
this dj so dope, just woow
Lame crowd. Amazing battle
Morning of owl was better. When Russia win... that guy doing annoying things, bad attitude, so bad.
Tiebreak?! Are you kidding me? LMFAO hahaha. Big ass rob!!
말도 안돼
Morning of owl: totally won. What is going on in the heads of judges??
WTF ! Russia win ! BWJS = Big World Joke Series. When I see this battle, it´s not a battle for MOO, but a training... What´s moment who top 9 was better than MOO in this battle, never.. Incredible judges.
korea is dope
For all persons who talks that the morning of owl are winners and more stylish, have better flow and etc. Please improve your knowledge about Hip-Hop.

Dude you're living in the wrong era lol.
haha uhh....

When it comes to Bboying..... the older crew always wins.
I think MOO is the winner
finally rubber is good Judge...

Aku ra terimo MOO kalah.. :P
