Ok, I saw the full series of Baki the Grappler and most of the Street Fighter animes. This being a gaming site I would think most people would say Akuma would win in a fight. Maybe because he has fireballs and the Shin Goku Satsu. In my opinion there isn't a martial arts style that Yojiro hasn't fought against and won. Just seeing how he beats top tier fighters and doesn't even need to try. My guess is that he has already ran into Ansatsuken (Ken & Ryu style) and already knows all the weaknesses of it.

Akuma has trained almost his whole life in Ansatsuken style martial arts. Now-a-days he trains by himself. Occansionally someone will challenge him, depending if they are worthy, he might even give them a warriors death. Yojiro Hanma has been training almost his whole life too, not just in one martial arts, but all well known fighting styles, including esoteric ones like udonde,Shinogi, and Shinshinkai karate, even the forces of nature itself. His day is not complete until he has put a world class fighter in a coma or has taken on an entire martial arts school and knocked everyone out, including the coaches and instructors. Small note the only known time that Yujiro has ever been knocked unconscious is when Tokugawa had him shot several times with tranquilizer bullets. Despite having enough trances in his system to kill ablue whalehowever, he made a full recovery after a rather short period of time.

Now I heard somewhere that Akuma destroyed an island with his Hadoken, yeah thats pretty powerful, butYojiro fought bear handed in the Vietnam war against both American and Vietcong troops. After the war the US hired him as aliving weapon of mass destruction. Both have a sort of power up where Akuma will harness the power of the Dark Hadou and become Shin Akuma;while Yojiro when hefights for pleasure a demon's face will appear from the muscles on his back.

For me, I picture a great fight , oth being pushed to their limits but in the end, Yojiro's vast knowledge of all the martial arts would be to much for Akuma to counter against.
