Anyway Ryu fighting Akuma evenly in Aftermath was just to show how the final battle between Ryu and Akuma would kinda look like. In the canon storyline of SFIV, Ryu was stated by Rose to be not ready to defeat Bison, and he had to use the Mu no Ken to defeat Seth, something Bison had done easily on his own. Guy, Seth and Bison are definitely not stronger than Akuma.
