[@pkok4988]

So muchhhh respect for these two , the way they battled and the how the shook hands , clearly showing how much respect they have . This was a clean battle , no doubt nelson had so many new things , dino on the other hand did his part , and both were amazing , i'd like to see a tie actually .

Why are people hating on the judges and Nelson? Yeah Dino may have won the crowd(not because he is Chinese, that's relative/bias) but the reason why is because his style STANDS OUT. Nelson has technique and musicality don't get me wrong he's a damn good popper. But he's very repetitive and only depends on how hard he "hits" to the beat like a metronome can hit to the beat every time. Dino however, doesn't just hit hard to the beat, he goes everywhere, reaches every angle, mixes waves, goes on the ground, uses every part of his body(his head for instance), he has STYLE. He has something called being unique and you gotta understand Dino didn't just win the crowd because of his ethnicity and homeland, crowds want to see something new and fresh and exciting dynamic movements, not just musicality and hitting hard to the beats, I can do that. The judges clearly only focused on this and if I can say the same thing too then about ethnicity, Pete is black, he was the worst judge in this whole event. Don't bring ethnicity because it applies both ways. I love Nelson and Dino both, but I can tell you Dino is a superior dancer, not a better popper. He has so many dance styles and you can see it in his popping. Nelson has similar styles with Crazy Kyo who also depend heavily on hard hitting and very jerky movement; not the most cleanest style. There is another aspect you guys gotta see, the flow. Poppers need to have a good transition between their moves and balance of musicality. If you're hitting to every single beat and vibrating your body to any beat possible, you aren't having the best flow. Dino transitions between his boogaloo, waving, hitting, scarecrows, fancy footwork, etc. His sets should've been longer but he was probably out of energy.

[@geographywu3622]

Clearly "the worst judge" gave a tie.

[@arktzen]

You can't compare Nelson with Kyo imo

[@PolishPoppingBeats]

the thing about nelson is that his dance will make you hear sounds that usually people gonna miss!

[@dansepassion67]

Juste magnifique !!

[@jaquelinetavares262]

The best Song

[@sundin57]

Looks like at 2:26 Nelson knows he has it won with the song selection. Killed it.

[@smoothcriminal28]

dino all day ....my favorite boogaloo style beside kei

[@rob3rt19931]

I love Dino's foot work!

[@aaaooo1637]

What's round 2's song name ? please...

[@josephaudebert7480]

SOOOOOOOOOOOOO AMAZING GUYS. MY GOODNESS. 🙏 ❤

[@xXSCARFACE1983Xx]

how the hell did Nelson win this? Dino's move at 4:05 was absolutely astonishing. there's just now way to rescue from that move! You need 10000% skill to pull off such a move!

[@gabrielmesquita3963]

Nelson brabo demais sem comparação , Nice men

[@poppingmj3727]

nelson my number 1 ,dino best in china (Y)

[@Space92130]

What name First song is ?

[@LawrenceCXu]

Nelson is so good at the 2nd song. Dino is in progress, even he's been the best popper in China. I knew about him when he was still in college. Fight on, Dino!

[@goosmendoza3552]

Dino win!!!!

[@hongquannguyen5532]

he lost 2nd round

[@ngocanhngo5747]

But I think should be tie! Dino was more musicality! His FEELING was on the beat! Every movement was look good!

[@warik1337]

i don't know bout you guys but i saw a real war in the rounds ending with some sportsmanship! very entertaining!

[@TheJDLA]

Music?

[@OhmAllstars2610]

1st song plzz....

[@ngocanhngo5747]

I'm a Kite, Hozin, Dino fan too! =)) But in the Final, I agree that Kite lost! But in this battle, I still like Dino more!!!!!! :) ;)

[@omegakek1]

@PopnStan Thanks for the song names. I don't know why your comment was marked as spam.

[@iviloca6089]

what name the first song help to search please

[@WallStreeTMAS]

+Ivi Loca lil rob saw you on the dance floor

[@penghuizhao8790]

holy crap,Dino is so sick. I think he really should be the winner of this battle!

[@Saphia14]

2nd song please..

[@WallStreeTMAS]

Nelson is amazing beat killer at 2.50

[@rob3rt19931]

I need the first song please!?

[@刘航-n5d]

dino and nelson they are my favourite dancers.

[@speedyjunior4120]

Nelson my number one🔥🔥💫🤞🏽

[@alexanorginal]

4:22 was the second Nelson realized that Dino is out of Power !!! LOOOOK!!!

[@debbechahmed6692]

2 song please ^^ '

[@Junnicorn]

Believe me, he is. Take this from a fellow popper. Most judges look for style, rhythm, and how clean you are. Nelson's hitting is just so annoying good. Can't say that Dino's aren't, but in this battle. Nelson took it

[@hongquannguyen5532]

this is true, Dino lost the 2nd round at 4:21

[@TheGenobeat]

Yeah, he really is a good guy and popper.

[@rob3rt19931]

lil rob- saw you in the dance floor

[@Z1ng1s]

3.42- 3.65 awesome moves!!!

[@Junnicorn]

Nelson was too, he does a lot of body tics and arm tics. But mostly body tics that follow every beat. No doubt that Nelson was bringing it in KOD7. Just look at the battle with Kite as well, he was on fire. Even though that i'm a Kite, Hozin and Dino fan.

[@LetsMakeFans]

Awesome!

[@VNAJSS]

Yep!!! Nelson vs Super Dino!!!!!!!

[@MeezyCA]

Awesome battle!

[@SinistaPinyarda666]

Definately best battle of the day.

[@kadizhan]

3:00 what song? help me search please!!!

[@kadizhan]

Thank you!)

[@jas0npr0ftw]

Great battle!

[@rob3rt19931]

I think Dino should have taken it. Cause Nelson can't feel the the music like Dino and has better style. Nelson just has perfect ticking.

[@freesoftpopping]

tres magistrale nelson

[@81tattoo]

Cool!

[@MrRastaRox]

See these pops please : 00:03

[@microwaveMYsoda]

Dope

[@KebraderaPumper]

@Alvinyithuan94 nelson extreme feeling / good ears / funky style

[@TRUEFUNKSOULDIER]

good battle Dino is dope!!

[@SinistaPinyarda666]

@laxwithme "Nelson sorta hits beats" pfft he hits plenty of beats, doeasn't 'sort' of hit them. Plus he displays plenty of different 'grooves' when he dances. Dino is amazing don't get me wrong, but I believe Nelson dances more when he pops. His groove is what sets him apart from alot of other poppers.

[@TimurhanKaya]

nelsons moves ar so CLEANN !!!

[@LosTIma]

BEAT killer!!!!!!!!! 2:50 damn

[@nogin8000]

I really don't think Nelson should've one... Not to take away anything from him tho.. I just thought Dino was better...

[@KicksKidsCane]

got the same shoes with Nelson! HEYA

[@ianvlnva]

@consulhawk Yup yup definitely cleaner, in dynamics with how he hits and with movement. Nelson's finally gettin prooooops. He's on a role. I wanna see Nelson vs Gucchon :> hahahahahha

[@ShawnNoruzi2]

@darrensymes Never seen someone hit so hard...by music.

[@Gundamknight2423]

And who said nelson sucks? i admit, in 2009 juste debout, he was a bit lacking but now he's just a clean hittin' beast

[@D3L3T3]

damn...that was sick.

[@jaquelinetavares262]

Nelson The boss

[@dacheew9046]

wow

[@hbo5477]

Dino win

[@Djray1985]

Dino has more style but Nelson can hit like crazy

[@MartinHuber1]

Nelson finishe´d him hard in the second round !!

[@consulhawk]

close battle , i'll pick nelson because he is a bit cleaner

[@MrRastaRox]

2:51 vs 3:56

[@jasperwongshouxin9802]

3.56!

[@Roswell619]

Nelson cool man :)

[@saiemkhan1329]

[@khalil-tb]

[@Junnicorn]

Nelson hits really hard and his tics are insane. Also. He's one of the cleanest, but i dislike his style so much...

[@Shaolin-Jesus]

[@Roswell619]

[@KbamChannel]

[@jylon42990400]

[@HARDCORE5EK]

[@MartinHuber1]

I think if you try this, then that will be very embarrassing for u ;)

[@Alvinyithuan94]

[@JustBeHappy001]

[@yuezhixu8397]

[@zer0_tw0_]

Why here is so many Nelson haters?

[@KebraderaPumper]

nelson > no have talent,but he hard work this work u can see in your face

[@poppincam]

i came here to watch dino... i just skipp the other dude. dino = robbed.

[@rrichmondboy]

cant stand a crowd that slanted on one side

[@godsman4eels]

DINO GOT ROBBED!!!

[@evilx973]

rien a dir

[@nathan2338]

The people that think that Dino should've won are the ones who are ignorant to popping and base what they think on the crowd reaction, Dino is obviously is gonna get a better vibe from the CHINESE crowd because he is CHINESE. Nelson won, for sure.

[@chensun3930]

THEY are not same style at all. it is hard to tell who should ve won. Nelson got more animation in his dance, which will make the dance cleaner, solid,got more visual impact. Dino got more boogaloo elements in his dance, and more fluent and flexible, and sronger grasp of feeling of the song. So, if someone think Dino should won, it is not because they dont konw poppin like you do, instead maybe because you don not know poppin very well

[@yohann088]

Asian are not amazing like dino
