Hong 10 VS Taisuke | Quarterfinals | Red Bull BC One World Final 2016

[@Aao102]

Taisuke is the cleanest Bboy out there but his short rounds let him down and another thing to be applauded is the stamina and content of Hong 10. I honestly can't seem to let go of this generation of Bboys, the golden generation I believe...Lilou, Taisuke, Hong 10, Wing, Lil G, Roxrite, Neguin, Victor,Junior etc to name some from the''golden generation''!!

Imagine if Taisuke has Hong's stamina.

[@albinnguyen8942]

Dude…. Not mentioning Physicx?? Man you must be pretty new to the bboy scene I assume

[@BPrinz776]

You forgot cheerito

[@henryryan1405]

This was Bboy Taisuke final BC One because he announced his retirement from this competition. It's sad that he never won it but either way he is one of the best bboys and I have nothing but respect for him!

[@coder49]

He used to be a lot better, not sure why he changed his style

[@chrisnguyen5922]

maybe when he comes across other bboys in competitions and in between sessions with his crewmates, he wanted to set himself apart from others by adding more dynamic transitions and explosive style/power into his set. when you're young, you want to follow those who come before you. when you grow older, you want to do things your way. i'm not solely talking about signature moves but signature movement.

[@deanmuller6752]

Taisuke already won BC one !?

[@ابنآدم-ز2ف]

@@deanmuller6752 : yeep twice if not 3 times.

[@blackcatsclan647]

Taisuke is a warrior do not fall. He is artist painting for background.

[@krumbs2039]

you see the brotherhood between the two of them from behind the scenes become more apparent here. Hong10 blowing a kiss at the end of the first round but Taisuke responding saying that if he's retiring this year, he has to show the world how fierce he really is, that if it's his last battle, he wants it to be memorable and with his best moves. Hong10 respectfully responded by bringing out his moves, combos and sets as well. even at the end, Hong10 hugged him dearly. this was a bittersweet battle.

[@pizzahizza]

The look on Taisuke's face when the camera panned to him applauding Issei after his win made me feel really bad for him

[@dimasamaru6475]

same with me, idk what is the purpose, but i think everybody know that taisuke want to be champion. and its hurt if your junior take it especially in homeland, so they take that moment.

[@cageman301]

No need to feel bad for Taisuke, he did his best here, and with or without a title he will always be legendary. That being said if he does decide to return for another BC One someday I hope he'll come back with longer sets.

[@hascyhascy]

Taisuke is dope but short rounds

[@chrisnguyen5922]

Yeah he tries to do it fast and dynamic. He needs to change tempo and add some foundation/repetition in footwork concepts on top of his blow up style. Then he would be complete IMO

[@yeshevishman]

It's annoying because we know he can do that. Taisuke is one of the most energetic B-boys on the scene, but he barely brought it here. What happened? Idk, but it saddens me to think that one of the best might be losing his touch.

[@LifesABeatBreakIt]

+HardkorVC Thankkk yoouu. finally someone says it. its his speed and execution. he just lights it up every round. i feel it was more even than what people think. besides the 3rd round lol. i feel that was all Taisuke

[@donovanramires3215]

True. He doesn't need to do longer rounds

[@johnisawsomeme]

What? That's bullshit. Taisuke is dope and all, but speed and execution isn't jack shit. You need more variety of moves like hong 10 does, or at least have the capabilities to dish out that many levels. That's the problem with taisuke, his rounds are barely 10 seconds, and let's be honest, most of his moves are really similiar, being mostly in jackhammer positions, flare "animation cancels' and etc. "He doesn't need to do longer rounds". Clearly that isn't the case when he lost shit ton of battles because his rounds were too short.

[@DegiLatino]

One of the sickest battles of the BC One final.... Hong10 was just on fire

[@edwz8152]

Both of them

[@jacobblack9993]

Wth ! Are u seriouse !

[@diseasefire]

2:38 BEST MOMENT IN THE HISTORY OF EVER AHAHA

[@ShaneNagy]

Why did taisuke retire? He was only 26 years old in this

[@jephom]

He wanted to give the younger generation a chance

[@atomic-art]

wait he was THAT YOUNG?

[@buddyboye4203]

Who knows.?Would have to ask him.

[@That0therG]

which is a shame...because Issei won THAT NIGHT. his retirement reason was for nothing.

[@bluerat1996]

Thought taisukes rounds were better quality and cleaner, regardless if they're shorter

[@DRAGONOFTHEWEST]

Absolutely agree, if Taisuke just made his rounds a tad bit longer, I feel like he would've won this battle.

[@zzzzzz69]

I think it's not far fetched to think that the overall quality and cleanliness might diminish if he keeps going on for longer and longer.

[@yuhaiight4384]

I agree but hong 10 had more high level moves, complex footwork and better freezes

[@vincenzo5974]

Taisuke😭😭😭

[@cognacyang9342]

been waiting for this battle in a decade... made props to both which are my favorites...

[@VinsaceTamogatchi]

I can't get over Hong 10 sprinting up to the stage

[@QUAKECITYROCKER]

haha he was hyped

[@VinsaceTamogatchi]

This was such a good world final

[@andreivernic6905]

well the man was dead serious about winning his 3rd redbull bc one title so you can imagine he was hype as hell....not to mention he was dope as hell and on point all night. he and issei both deserved that damn title on the other hand....taisuke's been in line for all these years....maybe if he delivered properly in the battle with hong he could have taken it....

[@Sinking2deep]

Hong10 said in an interview, he just wanted to be funny instead of looking cool. Then it became a kind of meme for him so he had to enter all the battles in 2023 by sprinting up to the stage 😂

[@selecta6]

Taisuke has short sets, yes, but the speed and difficulty of his moves make it harder to have longer rounds. Yeah he can make it longer but he could be sacrificing the cleanliness (quality) of his sets. I'd rather have his short and sweet sets rather than having him have sloppy long sets. Thank you for motivating me to dance since 2006, we will miss you!

[@QUAKECITYROCKER]

Bc one won't be the same without Taisuke. I hope he still battles in the future. He is one of the best of all time. Wish he did his criticals or 2000 set vs hong 10. Props to Hong 10 For still going strong after all these years.

[@dimasamaru6475]

he do criticals once in 2nd round

[@jacketofficial7089]

taisuke, my favorite 2 win this year, 😭😭😭

[@Mrtz1992]

The main Taisuke's enemy always was stamina.

[@ddal3998]

I don't think his problem is stamina, he is not even out of breath after all of the rounds. It's his style, and very impelling. All his rounds have a well-defined beginning, main part and the end and they are very clear, as any dance should be. Compare to Hong 10, you don't see this structure in his dance at all, I'm not saying Hong 10 is bad, he's great, but stylistically taisuke's dance, structure is just out of the league.

[@XLU-vt7ky]

WOO when Hong gets serious it dose make difference... I love them both. Even, as he said Taisuke's rounds are way too short but man, Taisuke does progress a lot (compared to those rounds back to 2014) ! That's amazing. No matter Taisuke's gonna participate bcone or not he is always my hero !!

[@That0therG]

nah nah nah....you should see his 2010 rounds...both his rounds put together against Pluto were less than 30seconds

[@ShaneNagy]

Taisuke reminds me of kakashi with his stamina and level of badass lol

[@rockisrealmusic5338]

Only if he had a good stamina he could've easily been a champion. I feel he should try again just one more time... Please one more year taisuke pleaseeee 😖😞😭

[@hoopra]

crazy legs knows wassup, taisuke took that, dope short sets are better than long crashing sets

[@janedoe5551]

Taisuke was very clean throughout all 3 rounds but they felt a lot shorter than normal for him, was expecting him to throw out his signatures like his criticals or germanmills/2000s when Hong 10 threw out his but nothing while Hong 10 just had so much more moves. Hong 10 had 2 major crashes, 1 in round 2 and 1 in round 3 though I wouldn't call it "long crashing sets". Either way both bboys are in my top 3 and was hoping for a grand final with both of them but brackets didn't agree. Taisuke's biggest enemy is still "stamina" =/

[@mitismee]

why hong crash ? because Tai's short set caused hong to crash quicker.

[@kohyamada9471]

Lol Crazy Legs wasn't there

[@hoopra]

Koh Yamada he was backstage on the livestream, he gave taisuke a hug and told him he took that

[@mitismee]

Koh Yamada he was there back stage

[@17teacmrocks]

taisuke did awesome but hong10's sig moves are unique

[@someoneelse3740]

17teacmrocks which are unique?

[@andreivernic6905]

Like....all his signature moves? no to mention how many people use then halo(hong10 frezze) these days. it's become quite a classic freeze. his flow and his moves are his own and nobody can mess with that for sure

[@ApoMelon]

taisuke has short, but super clean rounds. Not a single slip up hong 10 had minor slip ups in all of his rounds and two noticeable crashes in his last one. but his rounds were way longer and were more dynamic could have gone either way.

[@forestlink6673]

It's because hong10's moves are too difficult, including the 2 fingers freeze..

[@FCnNEo]

Ayy, which will you choose? Long set but with noticeable slips and crash or short but on point and clean? Def the short one. The judges made the wrong choice with this one.

[@Dante_tea_v]

@@FCnNEo I mean u can never say that judges made the wrong decision ever, They have there own eye, aka they might rate things difirent.

[@Qurash]

taisuke looks so relaxed...i dont think the title is that important to him anymore. ofc it would be nice but looks like he found his inner peace

[@MichaelMineCraftings]

Crown or not Taisuke is still by far the best Japanese bboy ever i still like Issei though

[@Moha-sr7nk]

Please what is this music ? (3:09)

[@majorsy2137]

3:08 song please!!!???

[@Neptunn69]

Even with these short rounds Taisuke should have won! These rounds were super clean, musicality and fresh from Taisuke.But the main reason is that Hong10 crashed in every round a lot. Plz open eyes guys. A lot crashes from Hond10.That's why 2/3 VOTED for Taisuke! Taisuke could easily win final because he saved his major moves and combos. I'm fan of these two legends, but after this battle i felt sad and watched next battles without any interest. Hong10 is 2 times champ, he did impossible, but Taisuke is not winner, Hope he will come back and win.....

[@syaefulfebryan9797]

even he crash He will countinuosly to other moves. So it's little hard to describe if he crash. Only if you always see his moves then you know he's lttle crash :D

[@SHwu-hp7eo]

what did comentator just say to Taisuke's round at 3:27? thanks!

It's over. It's a short round. It's not enough.

HAHAHAHA What???????????? the biggest robbery show in years, the crowd was awesome and some of the decisions were objective, but the robberies were so visible

[@andreygermanov4363]

Collins Ongaya those even weren't my favorite bboys, I'm just saying that some of the decisions were very messed up

[@andreygermanov4363]

It's not the deal about who's your favorite bboy, it's the deal about proper judging.

[@andreygermanov4363]

I'm not complaining, internet generation? Dude chill... I sit on everyday to learn some old facts from different people such as Crazy Legs,Rahiem, Afrika Islam and others, i have tons of things to say when it comes to hip hop in general,but since were talking about this event. Ok all the judges judge differently of course, but when its clearly obvious that the other opponent won it just has to be objective and fair....i'm not disrespecting their opinion or something, they are professionals that know their shit sticked together precisely accurate.

[@donovanramires3215]

It was a great battle, just sad that it was Taisukes last BC one...he was the one who tried to win that title more than anyone else (7 times) Hope that he is at least going to be a judge for rbbc one

[@VincentAbbe]

Battle between brother; king of bboy and king without crown, so much fun & respect in this battle. Taisuke always have clean set but too short, Hong 10 maybe crash at round 3 but he know how to change it to another trick 😂 But I really hope next year Taisuke use a longer set and get the tittle RBC1 Champion 👏

[@jp2650]

1st song?

[@bfhcorp]

amazing taisuke !

[@victopchen]

Okay Taisuke have two weak point and he never want to change. 1. Like to do short round. 2. always preserve his strong move. And these makes he miss champ everytime.

[@DynamiteStylez]

He won R16 Solo 2011.

[@yandodov]

Ahaha 5:21 looks as if Taisuke starts laughing on the microphone.

[@LinLinIsMyFeyt]

Woohoo! I was actually hoping for Hong10 and Taisuke to go at it this year @ BC 1. Owyeah!!

[@kayilla6413]

If taisuke went longer he could've won! very big gamble saving moves for the next round.

[@massb7428]

I wanted taisuke to win so bad :(

[@andrepolk2354]

I keep going back & watching this & in my opinion he killed Hong 10 bay far!I wanted Taisuke to win it all!

[@livefree1030]

@0:13 does Hong10 only have 4 fingers on his left hand?

[@xzseng4524]

taisuke has stopped competiting but is he still part of bc all stars?

[@sasaugebun]

Sure, Palezinho and Cico had long stop competing and still part of the team

[@hellofellowgamers4214]

2nd round taisuke was on fire if his other rounds were longer he easily would take this battle

[@dummy3300]

Think taisuke took a gamble he was definitely going for all or nothing saving his moves and using as little as possible

[@dimasamaru6475]

if he took this battle i think taisuke will take the belt too. he can use his arsenal like 2000 to against bruce, then use the criticals for beating issei.

[@1bicboi]

Dude no disrespect to Taisuke, but if this is going to be your last battle in the Red Bull BC, why hold back???? Seriously? He could've easily extended his rounds and gave Hong10 a harder battle. Hong10 crashed a lot and was not as clean as Taisuke, so if he extended his rounds longer i think he could've easily beat Hong10.

[@chrisnguyen5922]

He already organized his rounds through his training. Not sure he considers adding a bit of freestyling or adapting to his opponents in the moment, such as kleju or lilou. He seems too reserved to add extra moves to his pre-planned sets - I'm sure he knows his physical limits and mental stamina. The thing is, he's throwing out crazy power sets and blow ups, which undoubtedly drains his stamina. Towards the end of each round, he probably figures out that it's never a good idea to go all out in case he makes it to the finals or has to go through a tie breaker. I dunno, retiring means you're taking a break in your career since you're exhausted of practicing each and every day. It's his personal decision. Can't get mad at him for that.

[@Dilettante-l1s]

i think it's matter of efficiency in the point of whole competition, nut just for this one match. he showed his stamina problem since 2014, so it seems that he is controlling his sets with short, but packed and fast delivery of hard moves.

[@hikennotheo1568]

he is doing that every red bull lol, do you guys know who are the commentators ?

[@fuzzywaffles807]

why did taisuke do such short rounds, i've seen him do so much better in other things and if this really his last event, why did it seem like he didn't really care :-(

[@edwwjy]

This idiot has so short stamina and moves, in bc one 2014 he tried to do longer round. Menno smoked him in final and taisuke was running out of moves and stamina

[@henryryan1405]

Dude he's not an idiot so relax yourself. the reason taisuke did not go all out is because he said in an interview that he didn't care if he won or not he just wanted to have fun. I'm also disappointed that he didn't try harder but at the end of the day he still deserves respect dude.

[@Neptunn69]

lol? Menno "won" against Blond, Thesis and Alcolil with 2/0 But Taisuke used a lot of sets before final: Luan 2/1 , Wing 2/1, Cheerito 2/1/. In final judges voted 3/0 for Menno. Its was fake championship.

[@edwwjy]

Henry Ryan Taisuke is an idiot because he underestimated the 2 times champion with his short round. Just like he did to pluto bc one 2010. Watch him crying in a post interview with Ronnie. Taisuke blamed the judges. He is my favorite bboy. He has what it takes to take all titles. But with this kind of dancing (less than 15 seconds round)....

[@cognacyang9342]

how did taisuke a idiot?? Hong 10 and taisuke are like best red bull bc friends...lol

[@rubensuarez5015]

[@tsanntsann]

One of the best fight in my heart. Both of them are unique enough to represent their style. I wonder if Taisuke make his round longer would the result be changed. 🔥

[@alwaysdrunk5461]

Taisuke is my all time favorite bboy, but did he really think he could win this round, especially against Hong 10 with these short sets? I am mad at him tbh. I really wanted him to win this year, since it was his last rbbc1. I am sad and mad at the same time. You can do short sets in the finals, but not in the early rounds. Taisuke the beltless champion

[@henryryan1405]

the thing is Taisuke said in an interview that he just wants to enjoy the event and that he is fine with not winning. I think that's why he didn't go all out in this battle.

[@cutedog7275]

Taisuke is one of my favorite bboys, but he frustrates his fans with his short rounds. To compete in bcone you cannot only enjoy the event, its about enjoy and going to your opponent's throat, face hong 10 with those rounds is admit that you wanna lose.

[@bboys1101]

Man I agree with you, I am mad and sad too, this is his last Red bull BC One, he should have showed everything he has to battle with someone like Hong10. Damn...

short round doesn't meant u gonna loose .. but if it's short and straight to the point and pack a good qualities then it's a Win. It is just Hong put alot more details in his set.

please tell me second song name

[@ConsciousBreaks]

Renegade's comments were really on point with Taisuke and it's good that someone called him out on that. Like, "Just as you're about to get into it, he's finished. Maybe one round he could do that, but not three in a row." It's a shame because, like people said, we all know Taisuke's capable of adding more content, but just doesn't. When Renegade called the battle after Taisuke's second round, he was pretty much on point. It was only that close because Hong 10 got a little sloppy on his second and third rounds.

[@ConsciousBreaks]

Just to correct my comment-Renegade meant that Taisuke's round was over, not the battle. My point still stands.
