Maeda and his round winning Ultras. *applause* You have to give mad props to Daigo in Round 2 jumping back with the life lead into the corner so Maeda didn't have a charge to do Ultra and made him play more aggressively because usually when someone is in the corner you want to put the pressure on.
Dash ultra is pretty straightforward, but you really need the balls to dash forward and confirm the fireball with your own skill, I'm more impressed by his reaction if anything. Also, anyone noticed Ryu running back around 1:50? It's Daigo trying to avoid another dash Ultra situation by forcing Maeda to move forward. Daigo was also building up meter to have Maeda neutral jump and land on a super. Notice how Maeda ate all the chip to avoid it? That's high level play for you.
Why use your Ultra to add 50 or 60 points of damage to a combo due to scaling, when you can use it to pass through projectile spam and get full damage from it? I'm sure he would tack the Ultra on to the headbutt if it would be enough to finish the round. Any other situation, and it's almost a waste to use it when it's going to be scaled so badly.
ha, finally the ultra doesn't work - it just takes a lucky ex tatsu to stop the madness that goddamn dash ultra is so good, Maeda's the best in the world at it
yes we've got some solid players,but arturo's Sim (which ive seen) isn't better than Iyo's,haven't seen an american Sagat better than Magos yet,nor a Boxer better than wat I just saw from this guy..and Uryo's Viper is still a fuckin beast goddamn..and honorable mention to Momochi's akuma..sick too but I see your overall point,and ill look 4 that match too didn't know that,ty for pointing that out.
wow..u put a boxer like this in the tournaments out here..its a wrap.ive seen Wong take a tournament as Fei Long,not that Fei sux,but thats not his best character,u take this guys boxer and Uryo's viper its over for amercans lol,won't even mention Mago's Sagat or Iyo's beastin ass Sim...
what a finish! this is the best set of SF4 matches I have EVER seen!
absolutely amazing play from both players.
There is not charge partitioning in sf4... only lenient command windows.

its teh same principal has focus dash forward into ultra,
the dash is buffering the first forward part of the ultra
but balrog's ultra start up has 10 frames of invincibility, and then he hits at the 11th frame... how does that work out
so ex tatsu has invincibility at start up?
1:06 how can he use ultra ?? coz he slice forward before
So true! Haven't seen that in long time!
I love this boxer player, he's awesome to watch. Making use of what limited mobility rog has got
daigo might've won but maeda's charge partition ultra in r1 was the hotness of this match
gotta love the endin, ryu does his win pose while that old door gets knocked down
Wow, Rog Ultraing through a Hadouken?
Brings back memories of ST.
I think it's because boxer's ultra has a bit of start-up.
Taison is one sec rog, prob one of the best in japan. Props to daigo for adjusting in time.
OK. This might sound crazy but what if Daigo's hitbox was actually in front of boxer's ultra's range?
Just a hunch.
I was expecting a EX shoryuken at the end. ... didn't know a EX tatsu would work to.
Daigo really has those 1 frame links down
maeda taison is a beast!
i think if u search for abelity, that guy has videos of sabin facing off against maeda if anyone is interested....

I think he was just buffering
Epic contest. I lik both players so i already knew it was gonna be a gd match.
Charge Partition
very carefully
1:05 is inhuman...
charging ultra WHILE dashing forward into the incoming Hadoken to place himself perfectly for the Ultra Combo ridiclously good :D
who won that match? I cant find it anywhere
this guy is a buffer master! good match
on the 3rd round daigo was like "hmm, your my bitch now"
lmao
2:53 Daigo - "Nope."
scaling after 4 hits on a level 1 ultra makes it really bad damage
also since he has a ultra ready he can limit daigos hadou spam at certain ranges
2:55 blew my mind
Or not.
0:37 dude never does the free Ultra. He should.
Why get so irritated if he doesn't know?
it is said that Maeda Tison is the only one that could mindfuck Daigo
2:46 masterful
2:11 what an epic speed xd.
ha, finally the ultra doesn't work - it just takes a lucky ex tatsu to stop the madness
that goddamn dash ultra is so good, Maeda's the best in the world at it
2:12 buffered super gdlk
no escape yeah right
I love 2:46 (oh god, i love everything)
super hit confirm booom
Hmm, is Maeda Taison by any chance Tackle Maeda that played Yunin 3s?
Other than that, first class ending :X Good match.
WOOT GO DAIGO
OHHH SHINKU TATSU > ALL! Goddamn I wasn't expecting that!
Same thing I was ganna ask.

Damn... Daigo is soooo good lol...
