Man, I realized that Katsu is one of the best judges, for me, by far. He doesn't vote for his homie that he knew forever and not to mention in the same crew as him. Always making fair decisions and not basing them off personal history. Respect.
Blond deserved the win. What are people talking about when they say Blond was just doing power moves. It's the other way around! Taisuke mostly did extremely short power move demonstrations while Blond mixed power moves with other unpredictable moves and transitions and adding flavor. In terms of style, Blond took this all the way. There just wasn't anything special about Taisuke's sets and he knew it. This was a clear win for Blond. If you watched the whole battle, Blond's sets were much more diverse than Taisuke.
Taisuke is such a frustrating b-boy. He has so much potential but god damn his sets are always so short. He flopped in the first round of BC One Tokyo final because he was over confident and the same thing happened last year in Seoul (although he should have beaten Lilou anyway). I just wish he'd make his sets 10 seconds longer and he'd probably win most battles. I understand the he can be tired but he's a professional athlete and should be fitter than that.
I am not sure but at 3:22 before taisuke's round, it looked as if he told the DJ previously to play that track and that is why he killed the beat with such fast reflexes. It also looked like at that moment he gave a hand signal to the DJ to play that track.
He has a more similar style to Neguin's (compact, agile, and explosive), but honestly, I don't know. After the first round, Taisuke basically would throw out one move and pass it back.
Neguin basic judge by energy(He spoke in a workshop) if he feel energy of bboy,he will vote for.Doesn't matter if bboy crash,if the move has a strong and good energy its probably Neguin vote.Sorry for my english i'm from Brazil.You know:ENERGY AND FEELING
honestly if u watch taisuke run through till the final, he did earn it, he actually got new moves, he have been trying to top rock more but at the end we are all human and no one can speak for his position but himself, as a taisuke fan, i watch all of his old and new vids and honestly he have developed new sets in these new recent vids of him. The mans trying ppl. But blond did win. More full sets and variation but if u watch blond run through till the final, then he did repeat moves many times
It's actually quite obvious why Neguin would vote for Taisuke. Neguin is a big advocate of free-styling, Taisuke free-styles more than Blond, hence Neguin voted for Taisuke. It seems that there's Breakers on this thread that forget something, it's a dance and as such there has to be a subjective realm containing feeling, emotion, charisma, character, creativity and musicality among the objective realm of technique, structure, and formality in the movement. There's a reason why Taisuke is an "all-star", just because you've seen him over and over again, doesn't make him worse. You try coming up with new moves every new video. Taisuke is one of the best Breakers in the world not because he has crazy moves, but because he has the flow of a dancer, he meshes his (objective) moves in a different way with his unique flow (subjective). For me, the main difference between Blond and Taisuke is the subjective flow. Blond is more structured, and I love structure, but seeing someone with dope charisma is something else for me. I used to not like Taisuke as much because he repeats a lot of moves, but then I saw the charisma in his moves and now he's one of my favorite Breakers. Basically if you masked both of them, I would know it's Blond from his moves, and I would know it's Taisuke from his flow.
taisuke was smart when he emphasized on footwork- the one thing blond seems to lack. But when he turned on his 4th set into a short power set, that was what killed him. He gambled on Blond being tired and wanted to give him as little rest as possible, but i think he gambled wrong.
Blond battled smart. 4th round: Taisuke brought the fire with his tapmill/2000 combo, thought he had that round in the bag, but Blond countered that with his own 2000 set. 5th round: Taisuke had some backrocks, Blond added one backrock at the end of the set but came up high to say "THIS is how a backrock is, man" Plus, Taisuke repeated too much. Again, 4th round 5th round, Taisuke did the exact same Halo>Chair>Headstand combo, but in his 4th round, did it quick and his headstand was sloppy, while in the 5th he dragged it out. Blond still had moves and combos to spare. I agree that Taisuke danced more to the music, but come on, his "dancing" wasn't amazingly musical and creative enough to outdo Blond's stamina, strategy, dynamics.
Trust me. He knew that blond won all the way and that the other judges were going to give it to him. He just gave 1 to taisuke cause its rough - losing 0-3 in the finals.
Bart1818 Taisuke's a big boy. He doesn't need pity votes he doesn't deserve. Neguin picked the bboy closest to his style and/or he totally dropped the ball here. 1-move rounds are kinda thin, even in a true cypher.
Bart1818 y would he risk giving it to taisuke even if he cant be completely sure whether the other two would give it to him or not. trust me, he chose taisuke fairly. his first round really showed that he improved in his freezes and the actual techniques instead of things that even ppl who cant dance will be amazed
Haythem Kamo it was his choice , no other. He chose the style closest to his preference. Its not our call. We may disagree but at the end of the day, he is the actual judge there.
i mean taisuke isn't bad in foundation... why are his rounds so short. I mean even if he has really hard and exhausting rounds he can still do a little toprock and footwork just to get the length...
+Sushi Prince u are right but he does very difficult moves, and with an incredible explosivity which is not easy to keep during a whole set and even more when u have 5 rounds like these during the final
Japan VS Korea! gotta love this battle right here. straight up, i feel that taisuke could have made his sets a little longer but they were still pretty dope, but in my opinion Blond just had a little bit more flavor to me, but that's just me. they are both dope...this is what i call a Final
I feel like this battle may have been biased becuase taiskue is in the red bull bc one all stars and so is neguin. Neguin's choice for choosing taiskue makes me curious.
honestly i haven't heard of bboy blond until now (sorry if i missed something i don't follow the asian scene much) but i think with what i saw from these qualifiers he could make some epic upsets happen
I feel Taisuke killed it man.. He was Innovative in his Moves and Combos and more prominent, very close to the music. However enjoyed watching The Battle of the Two Bboy GIANTS...... :)
***** what Atul Ingle said, and also one of his main strategies isn't to outdo his opponents' moves, but to outlast their stamina and hope they mess up while they're under heavy fatigue
GraemexIrwinator but taisuke was the one losing stamina. If anything, blond got tired because he didn't expect taisuke's sets to be so short. That second set from taisuke, it looked like he was going to do some more, but just did a simple freeze.
Can somebody pls list down all those songs if they know all of it??? They're so dope!!! :) I only know the first song which is called "Dj Tee - Alpha Team"
Gosto muito do estilo do Taisuke mas ele tava muito cansado nessa batalha...não tava fazendo top rocks e muito menos footworks. O blond realmente mereceu ganhar dessa vez \0/
Taisuke is always so close to winning xD. Even Redbull 2014 xD. he probably woulda won that one if he wasn't paired up against cheerito. His air Flare to 2000's were too good o.o
Taisuke is way more original (he has his signature moves), however, he cannot take 5 rounds... If you want to be a top b-boy (events) you better have stamina!
Damn, felt like it could have gone either way!! Maybe Taisuke will be invited back this year too. Since Lil G and Gravity got to the finals and lost as well!! Amazing bboys!
can't believe bboy Blond is 33 years old lol
33 years old !!!! You are serious ?? oO
he was born in 1982.
Damn I can not believe he has a teenage head !!
NO WAYYYYYY! =O hahahahaha bro thanks for the info.
yup hes been in the game for a while
bboy blond is dopeeee
Definetly one of the best Style and power mix Bboys in the World if not THE best 👍🏻
+Henryator but blond almost has no style :p
Man, I realized that Katsu is one of the best judges, for me, by far. He doesn't vote for his homie that he knew forever and not to mention in the same crew as him. Always making fair decisions and not basing them off personal history. Respect.
Amazing battle, both should be in the BC One World Final.
Blond deserved the win. What are people talking about when they say Blond was just doing power moves. It's the other way around! Taisuke mostly did extremely short power move demonstrations while Blond mixed power moves with other unpredictable moves and transitions and adding flavor. In terms of style, Blond took this all the way. There just wasn't anything special about Taisuke's sets and he knew it. This was a clear win for Blond. If you watched the whole battle, Blond's sets were much more diverse than Taisuke.
Blond truly has a limitless variety of combinations in power. Gotta love his creativeness with every move, well deserved.
Taisuke is such a frustrating b-boy. He has so much potential but god damn his sets are always so short. He flopped in the first round of BC One Tokyo final because he was over confident and the same thing happened last year in Seoul (although he should have beaten Lilou anyway). I just wish he'd make his sets 10 seconds longer and he'd probably win most battles. I understand the he can be tired but he's a professional athlete and should be fitter than that.
taisuke's sets were exciting at first ... and then he must've got tired or something. Well deserved Blond !
I am not sure but at 3:22 before taisuke's round, it looked as if he told the DJ previously to play that track and that is why he killed the beat with such fast reflexes. It also looked like at that moment he gave a hand signal to the DJ to play that track.
A very nice final battle. Both of them did well ;)
battle of legends! respect for both
WOW BLOND!! Bboy Dirty 30!
my fart literally smell longer than Taisuke round no BS
Go to hell then..
crazy battle
oml,,they want you to put godzilla in my next clip edit.hey,theres somthing your better then me at.
i do cartwheels u no,,2 days ago i did a right cartwheel,havent done 1 in 4 to 7 months
why is the floor like that?.hey,is that powder so people can do it.
or scracthes from souls of shoes
in basketball,they have to use white soul shoes
crazy moves both !!!!!!!!!!
why are your sets so short Taisuke....
maybe low stamina?
cuz it's enough to smoke a biter
Seek Destroy bboy blonde a biter?
He makes his sets short, explosive, and sweet so that his opponent has no time to rest.
the Urban Art Project it doesn't matter, he's just a good performer, bboying is a different thing... it's time for you guys to learn the difference
Stop inviting Taisuke to international BC one, Japan needs different reps.
no toprock and fottworks,i miss old taisuke.
I hope he can do more better next time that just like old him
Don't worry, in the world final later after that his sets were full and had glorified and footwork
This boy can still do it strong..💪
Why did neguin vote for taisuke?
He has a more similar style to Neguin's (compact, agile, and explosive), but honestly, I don't know. After the first round, Taisuke basically would throw out one move and pass it back.
Atomixgamerfly because its his choice? Duh.
Neguin basic judge by energy(He spoke in a workshop) if he feel energy of bboy,he will vote for.Doesn't matter if bboy crash,if the move has a strong and good energy its probably Neguin vote.Sorry for my english i'm from Brazil.You know:ENERGY AND FEELING
BboyUlisses Thanks. Your english is understandable :) thanks for the heads up
Because they're bff's
well this time Blond was so fresh, but Taisuke was cool too
So nice!!! he is my role model!!!
Shoot and upload videos in 50 or 60fps
honestly if u watch taisuke run through till the final, he did earn it, he actually got new moves, he have been trying to top rock more but at the end we are all human and no one can speak for his position but himself, as a taisuke fan, i watch all of his old and new vids and honestly he have developed new sets in these new recent vids of him.

So Nice
Way ta go Blond! u deserved this. Your too awesome bro! Bring On Paris!!
bboy blond has some nice stamina lol, taisuke looked so tired...
taisuke was smart when he emphasized on footwork- the one thing blond seems to lack. But when he turned on his 4th set into a short power set, that was what killed him. He gambled on Blond being tired and wanted to give him as little rest as possible, but i think he gambled wrong.
2:24 song name ??? Plzz :(((
Can anyone tell us the name of the song at 3:26 please?
What is the first song??????
Blond battled smart. 4th round: Taisuke brought the fire with his tapmill/2000 combo, thought he had that round in the bag, but Blond countered that with his own 2000 set. 5th round: Taisuke had some backrocks, Blond added one backrock at the end of the set but came up high to say "THIS is how a backrock is, man" Plus, Taisuke repeated too much.

I think Neguin was really blind this time .... he gave it to Taisuke without even thinking about it !!
Trust me. He knew that blond won all the way and that the other judges were going to give it to him.
He just gave 1 to taisuke cause its rough - losing 0-3 in the finals.
Bart1818 Taisuke's a big boy. He doesn't need pity votes he doesn't deserve. Neguin picked the bboy closest to his style and/or he totally dropped the ball here. 1-move rounds are kinda thin, even in a true cypher.

Neguin and Taisuke are still together !!! Redbull bc one allstars !!! They are friends, there are friends to vote -_-
Haythem Kamo it was his choice , no other. He chose the style closest to his preference. Its not our call. We may disagree but at the end of the day, he is the actual judge there.
Taisuke is a great bboy, but just needs longer sets
What do these Fingersigns mean? Are they counting how often the other repeats the same move?
i mean taisuke isn't bad in foundation... why are his rounds so short. I mean even if he has really hard and exhausting rounds he can still do a little toprock and footwork just to get the length...
If blond got robbed I would never watch rb anymore
did you see the red bull bc one final yet lol
Props to taisuke and blond. Had really high hopes for taisuke but... his 3rd round onwards werent as good. Short and somewhat slightly repetitive
Blonds last set was smooooooooooooth!!!
The crowd was dope!
Anyone know what shoes Taisuke is wearing?
FIRST SONG PLEEASE?? :) :D
dj tee - alpha team
Blond just nailed it. I though Taisuke got some breakthrough though, for the first time i just saw Taisuke so many airflare and head spin.
song name 1:00 ?
Both went hard
What kind of battle was this? fight for the crowd?
Taisuke !!!
One thing about taisuke are his his sets are too short. It always hurts him going up against quality opponents.
+Sushi Prince u are right but he does very difficult moves, and with an incredible explosivity which is not easy to keep during a whole set and even more when u have 5 rounds like these during the final
Holy shit dat last set. So much energy in the finals, respect!
there is something wrong with taisuke... maybe he is feeling some pain.. when the battle ended, he stayed on the ground
Tying his shoe lol
Philip Eager
when the battle formally ended. but while in Blond's set, he was limping off slightly, if you rly look for it
GraemexIrwinator theyre getting old lol. Neguin had a similar mishap when he lost to lil zoo
@@KokuRou Neguin was sick at rbbc 2013 and Taisuke was actually pretty young, he was 24 years old at that time.
Japan VS Korea! gotta love this battle right here. straight up, i feel that taisuke could have made his sets a little longer but they were still pretty dope, but in my opinion Blond just had a little bit more flavor to me, but that's just me. they are both dope...this is what i call a Final
Mad props. These guys are DOPE! I can tell Taisuke was super tired. Blond took it. He had more energy.
Good shit Blond, you deserved this one!
Don't you think Taisuke was way better in this moment rather than he in the world final !!!!!???! 😂
Blond très très fort respect
2:37 And 3:24 are sick from taisuke but the sets are too short
This is so much better compared to Redbull's video with crappy audio.
anyone who knows the winning song?
That was fucking amazing tho both came out so hard, great crowd too.
Blond's favourite hand sign, SMOL ROUND
nice one Neguin :)))) trying to get rid of competition :))))) and giving Taisuke the win
blond nao eh tao original quanto o taisuke, mas mostrou mais energia e variedade
the 1st music pls?
Blond rose to the challenge !
mis respetos para ambos q tesos
pure win of blond
Pergunta para o Neguin se estava escuro neste dia
My ispiration... Blond! I'am so happy because che won! He had destroyed the floor
I feel like this battle may have been biased becuase taiskue is in the red bull bc one all stars and so is neguin. Neguin's choice for choosing taiskue makes me curious.
second & third song please?
honestly i haven't heard of bboy blond until now (sorry if i missed something i don't follow the asian scene much) but i think with what i saw from these qualifiers he could make some epic upsets happen
look up extreme crew boty. he's been around awhile. it's surprising how good he still is
he was korea's top powerhead back in the early 2000s... that's saying a lot since back then korea was all about power
alexmpyun
isn't he 30+ years old?
GraemexIrwinator He is 30 or 31. So when his crew won boty in 2007 he was around 24.
alexmpyun he's 33 turning 34
taisuke was tired because his chain from the neck was too heavy haha
I feel Taisuke killed it man.. He was Innovative in his Moves and Combos and more prominent, very close to the music. However enjoyed watching The Battle of the Two Bboy GIANTS...... :)
LOL do you realize how short Taisuke's sets were? Course they were innovative, but trust me doing one combo in a set is not enough to win the battle.
of course, they were short. But its a situation of QUALITY VS QUANTITY. I opted for Quality.... :)
*****
what Atul Ingle said, and also one of his main strategies isn't to outdo his opponents' moves, but to outlast their stamina and hope they mess up while they're under heavy fatigue
GraemexIrwinator but taisuke was the one losing stamina. If anything, blond got tired because he didn't expect taisuke's sets to be so short. That second set from taisuke, it looked like he was going to do some more, but just did a simple freeze.
Nice fair win
First song?
taisuke's signature 10 second set loool
Can somebody pls list down all those songs if they know all of it??? They're so dope!!! :) I only know the first song which is called "Dj Tee - Alpha Team"
Awesome battle , it could've been better if Taisuke had done longer sets
This was a hyyyyyyyyype battle!
MAN!!!! I love blond no homo he works hard! im glad that he won it!! deserves it :)
Taisuke is so clean!!!
What's the 1st song called?
Dj Tee - Alpha Team
Thanx man :)
Steven Hawkins Not at all ;)

Blond's moves are very good but Taisuke did better and for me he should have win this!
taisukes set was like 7 seconds each

John Lee
Some
Neguin felt sooo bad for taisuke he had to give him a vote just to make him feel less sad lol
Gosto muito do estilo do Taisuke mas ele tava muito cansado nessa batalha...não tava fazendo top rocks e muito menos footworks. O blond realmente mereceu ganhar dessa vez \0/
Hi . . .
Taisuke is always so close to winning xD. Even Redbull 2014 xD. he probably woulda won that one if he wasn't paired up against cheerito. His air Flare to 2000's were too good o.o
Taisuke is way more original (he has his signature moves), however, he cannot take 5 rounds... If you want to be a top b-boy (events) you better have stamina!
well deserved victory
bboy blonde is so dope
Damn, felt like it could have gone either way!! Maybe Taisuke will be invited back this year too. Since Lil G and Gravity got to the finals and lost as well!! Amazing bboys!
Blond destroyed this
Awesome power move, and I can tell that both were very tired.
1:46 Even Blond was shocked how short that shit was...haha. Blond:2, Taisuke:0
어디랑 어디하는거임?
Blonde still got it
all my respect for bboy blond 32 years old
Hi
