Both of these fighters are very skilled with a sword. I dare say that Yoshimitsu has the superior blade, but Ryu is better when it comes to combat. His regeneration will allow him to endure many of Yoshimitsu’s blows before Ryu deals the final strike. Both of these fighters can typically unleash a fatal attack in an instant, but the regeneration gives Ryu the edge. I’d also say that Ryu is faster, but Yoshimitsu makes it close since he can teleport. After a hard fought battle; Ryu would be able to strike Yoshimitsu down for the win. Ryu Hayabusa wins.
