I think the Green Ranger could have legitimately been able to defeat Ryu. Although they never used the full arsenal of both contendors. Ryu never used the Shun Goku Satsu or the Power of Nothingness (which is understandable because it's evil vs evil) and the Green Ranger did not teleport even once during the combat sequence (only once during entrance). I hope Ryu uses the Shun Goku Satsu to finish the Green Ranger in the alternate ending. If both were given their full arsenal then the Shun Goku Satsu could be evaded with a teleport move form Green Ranger and he could back stab Ryu. If Ryu had the Power of Nothingness with his Hadoken blast then it would have easily destroyed the Sword of Darkness and greatly damaged the Green Ranger (maybe even killing him).

EDIT: Nevermind.

Overall entertaining, but nothing drool-worthy.

First to admit I'm not a fan of JDF, but that was a cool fight. Nice choreography, production values, and I'm quite in love with that suit. If they did something like that for the movie I'd be pleased as punch.

I think Green Ranger would beat Ryu in a fight. But did Tommy have to be so brutal in the end? It just seems to go against being a Power Ranger.

But it was all in good fun, so fun it was. :)

I have to agree with you on that. It's recognizable as the MMPR/Zyu Green Ranger, but there's some great detail put into the suit that makes it pop. Although I feel Green Ranger looks better WITHOUT the silver stripe.

To be fair all of BITS's Super Power Beatdowns boil down to asking people who would win and sometimes people choose something because of superficial reasoning.

In the end it was enjoyable, but yet another example of the planet sized ego of Jason David Frank.

We have no one to blame but the fans ourselves.

Super power beatdown is everything I hope screwattack's death battles could be. If SPBD would ditch the voting and integrate analysis of death battles, it would be perfect

Guys, to be fair they've had Tommy only go up against fighting game characters, who while not bad by any stretch of the imagination, usually are just street-level bruisers. Then again, I'd like to see any Ranger try their luck against Devil Jin, Nightmare, or Oni (considering the shit he pulled in Asura's Wrath).

Ladies and gentlemen, Tommy Loses Edition. With a Cameo from the Best Black Ranger. (In my opinion. Which I agree with completely)

YUSH!

The choreography in these never disappoints me. I really liked it, either end, its a fun watch regardless. Especially like the suit redesigns they've done. Classic with a little more edge. Hope they'll do one with JYB next. I really want them to mix it up with other rangers than JDF or even MMPR.
