Talk:Ken Masters vs Terry Bogard/@comment-28772223-20160907164402/@comment-28772223-20160910145434

He hasn't compared them fully. But I think Terry will win without big troubles. And here is why.

1. Training.

Ken - Ken has taken up many western martial arts, and learnt Ansatsuken, but the thing is that he has not mastered it, that's while beginning his training being almost a teenager.

Terry - he began fighting when he was a kid, he began fighting before even he was taken in by Jeff Bogard, his father, he had to survive in the streets of Southtown and the USA, which has a lot of powerful fighters with many types of fighting styles. After Jeff was killed by Geese Howard, he had to finally adapt to the different types of the fighting styles and even develop his own techniques to counter them, and he also managed to learn different styles from not only his father, but also from Tung Fu Rue. Terry learnt to control his chi, and like Ryu, has been fighting different people with different fighting styles.

2. Fighting style.

Terry - Hakkyokuseiken is Terry's fighting style, and this is a form of Bajiquan (aka Cannon Fist), which is a style similar to Qi gong, (it is based on the Ki energy and adapting to an individual's needs and train one's body and mind to survive under extreme environments and situations).

Ken - his Ansatsuken is a good fighting style and it is an assassin's based style, he uses the non-lethal version of it, because Gouken refused to train Ken and Ryu in the lethal style of it, therefore, this makes Ken's fighting style less effective for the battle to the death.

3. Experience.

Ken - he has never beaten any really powerful opponent. He only defeated Urien in SF3 3rd Strike who is a Demi-God, but Urien obviously let him win, though he could impress him, which is a good feat, however, that's it.

Terry - he fought Geese and won, and even when Geese returned with the Jin Scrolls, he was defeated by Terry. Terry also managed to defeat Wolfgang Krauser, who is much more powerful than Geese. And that's not all, he also defeated Jin brothers - Chonrei and Chonshu who had the Scrolls and Ryuji Yamazaki, who is a psychopath who has the Orochi power.

Plus the tournaments which Ken wins are just the U.S.A. Martial Arts Tournaments, which is practically nothing in comparison to winning the King of Fighters' tournament twice, which is the world tournament.

4. Currently:

Terry - he is raising and training Rock Howard, and he is still active and trains as a fighter, he even defeated Grant in Garou: Mark of the Wolves, who is 10 times stronger than all of chars who Terry beat before.

Ken - he got married and he is now focused on buisness and family rather than on the fighting, which is the main thing here.
