It was a hard fought battle that Isais won in order to retain his title.

My question is what did Poochie do to the board that landed him in the ring with Machine?

Once again Akuma impressed me, he put up a hell of a fight with Atlas and Walsh. Champions BEWARE, Akuma is the real deal....

Is this the famous Akuma that works all over the country, or is this a rookie that has suffered from uninformed people around him?

So noone around him thought it would be beneficial not to use a name that had already been used by someone. WVAA is going to call its next student Andre The Giant. Only thing is they guy will be 5'3 and 140lbs.
Do the kid a favor and change his name

The Akuma you're talking about is probably Gran Akuma
while the VWAA's Akuma is Akuma Okoye.
Two different men with two different names and a commonality.
It's like saying Austin Roberts should change his name because there's a Steve Austin
or The Phoenix Twins shouldn't exist because of Beth Phoenix.
Silly reasoning. If you know who they both are, it's easy to tell them apart. Just because their name is shortened simply because it's easier to report that way, doesn't make them the same person. Or imply that they're stealing from eachother.
In the end, Capcom wins the "we have the first and more famous Akuma" fight no matter what.

Just to let everyone know, the reason I was not there was I was at Navy Pier attending the Wheel Of Fortune tapings that will start airing in late April. I already had the tickets and could not pass this up. I will see you all in two weeks.
