Daigo takes SSFIV EVO title

As surely as moon following sun, Daigo Umehara, has won the Evo 2010 Super Street Fighter IV championship in Las Vegas.
The SF legend beat EG Ricky Ortiz 3-1 in the tournament’s final. Inflitration, Mike Ross and “Vangief” came third, fourth and fifth.
The 29 year-old champion also won the competition last year, beating Justin Wong’s M. Bison.
Daigo is most famous for his comeback against Wong’s Chun-Li in 2004, in which he did some mad parry action on his last pixel of health.
