    Either him or daigo in street fighter. Those are the two biggest names in fighting games imo.

    tokido ruined punk man, its sad..

    punk has just as much talent as any of the legendary 4, but he lets his respect of those guys get in his head when he plays them. And those topanga streams in japan seemed to have really messed up punk, sonicfox and chrisg are the only american players on the fighting game scene in 2v2 battles that are too dominant to be affected by illegal "scouting"

    Hmm.. never heard of sonic fox, from the profile it seems like he's good at some of the non-capcom games? I guess I'm more old school, but would be hard for me to consider him the fighting game goat without any success in the SF games.

    yea sonicfox places well in marvel vs. capcom infinite

    and actually made top 8 in street fighter 5 after only playing the game for 1 month

    he lost to legend tokido, and the japanese were so worried about fox's fang character they used a LIVE topanga stream just for it.. crazy

    He definitely plays at the highest level among a number of fighting games and it is impressive, but Go1chi still eats his lunch on some DBZF

    It’s not just about capcom, Sonicfox is up there in almost every competitive fighting game, he’s widely considered the best in MKX and is debatably the best in Injustice 2.
