I'm grateful for Strife TV. They understand the importance of a stable camera, and they don't show crowd reaction in the middle of a freeze. Thank you Strife!!

mad props for whoever threw lilou's shoe back to him.... crazy ass accuracy

Even until today I think this is one of the best battles ever. This battle had everything delivered from both ends through the entire battle whether it's a conversation (through their movement), signature moves, execution, you name it. This is what a battle should be like imo.

two legends facing off in the first round (they both still had all their moves available to them) and both really wanting to move on is the recipe for an absolutely banging battle. still fresh 10 years later

The 1st set from Taisuke is the best set of the event! No doubt!

Dear Redbull, Pls fire your camera team and hire Strife. Thank you.

Best shoe toss I've seen in a while... perfect placement...oh the breakdance was good too..

Taisuke is the clear winner here!

That battle felt like a final. These two really brought the fire and did not hold back; Taisuke's sets were so fierce (but still with that flow) even with his classic mocking attitude, and Lilou did his thing acting cocky and putting on a show with his flexibility and acrobatics. The winner doesn't matter to me, all that should matter is they put on possibly the hottest singles battle of the year.

Perfect shoe throw! Not only was it on beat but it landed in the right spot. I'm amazed!

I can't blv that some people here, disagree with the fact that Taisuke should win. I mean, take a good look.. He stepped with the rythm..straight and clear moves, nice flow, very powerful flares etc. 1st round-Taisuke 2nd Lilou 3rd Taisuke Peace!

Taisuke absolutely murders the beats.

Taisuke is definitely killing it

Have to say this was one of my top favourites from this years red bull, really shows the culture of hip-hop and true art of bboying!

I may not like Lilou's taunt sometimes, but you have to admit his stuff is nasty. That first round Taisuke tried his signature power and combos for competition. But lilou didn't even have to do power most of the time to make the crowd go crazy. Lilou brought a mix of style, taunts, comedy, power, transitions, freezes and abstract acts. While Taisuke had style, taunts, power, freezes, and transitions, BUT his sets were short and you saw him running out of energy. Give respect to both dancers, they were very good.

Lilou é o B-boy mais imprevisível que eu já ví, nunca se sabe qual movimento que ele vai lançar pra mim sempre foi o mais inovador .

Best battle of the nite they were fired up loved it

Am I the only one amazed at how the shoe landed perfectly where his belongings were. o.O ... I'd say the battle was close. Both of them did awesome!

0:26 insane timing

so this is my first time entering the bboy side of dancing and oh my jesus christ... these guys stamina, flexibility, and creativity is fucking insane. im addicted

Dope battle! Those were some crazy threads too

taisuke for sure for me.

One of the most iconic battles ever. Two legends and Jay Park MCing as well. For me Taisuke shoudve taken it, I feel like the judges kind of let the crash go in round one cause his shoe fell off but im the end of the day a crash is a crash. Regardless of the result, DOPE BATTLE

Que nem o lilou ainda não vi outro igual o cara é fera

TAISUKE !!!!!!!!!! Who Got The Flava Today !!!!!!!!!!!!

even the legend could do some mistakes.. and they did this time.. the winner was for Taisuke 100% ...

Besides the bboys being awesome, I really love how amped the audience were.

One of my favorite battles...

beautiful! i really loved this battle!!

TAISUKE

One of the sickest Battles I've seen in a while. . These 2 bboys 2 dope ass styles . Straight RAW!!!!

That's one of the craziest battles I've ever seen!

If i was judge, Taisuke will have my vote and respect. Really im currious of what taisuke gona do in the next round, because i have seen enough of LILOU. And dammit really, taisuke has the crazy hungry ninja look in his eyes. To be honest i want him to get a BC one belt. And the day he got that belt, i guess he will cry on that day,,,, Is like mission completed !!

Taisuke took it. Flow and rhythm. Lilou is dope but he looked like a spaz in this battle. I was very suprised by the judges.

Whoever threw that shoe back to the stage deserves to be a BC one champion. Accuracy on point bro....

WOW! The evolution of Breakdancing has grown leaps and bounds since I used to do this as a kid back in Philly!

TAISUKE +1

Man Taisuke shouldve won!!! Hes always close and never gets the win -.- cant wait til hes crowned a redbullbc champ

Taisuke rocks he is awesome breaker nice style

the two chinese jury have voted for taisuke...

best battle of the night

R.I.P:The beat and Lilou. Taisuke double kill

Lilou should be thankful to the guy who threw his shoe to the floor again lol

The best battle of the night.

Taisuke should have taken it! Really dissapointed from the outcome

This was probably the best battle I've seen since the early to mid 2000's.. unreal..

awesome camera work thx

Lilou's style is impeccable!

Naww Lilou was Crashing Taisuke was way to clean. That Lilou was hype but ive never seen Taisuke get that hype to lol hes usually calm.

TAISUKE won this all out, bad ass dude killed those break beats. Much love from the "PLANET OF BROOKLYN"

damn i remember watching videos of lilou back in 03 on justedebout... still a beast!

I don't understand how Taisuke could've lost. Yes his last set was a bit short but besides that he was on point and killed every round. With all due respect to Lilou and Poe One etc, I don't know Taisuke could've lost that.

2:38 Lilou sprays his inhaler at Taisuke.

Lilou really has style. He maybe don't make typical head spins but he definitely make his own way and rocks the floor like no other.

현장에서 봤는데 이 경기가 제일 뜨거웠습니다.

Taisuke should have took this one. HANDS DOWN!!

ROBBED ROBBED ROBBED man it's so clear to see Taisuke had every round

You have to give it to Taisuke, he was on the music no mistakes and great moves, but then again Lilou is the one you will never mind winning, although I am a Lilou fan I would give this to Taisuke ( personal opinion )

Watching this in 2015 and still think Taisuke got robbed lol

My god that was one of the best battles Ive seen in a long time. Happy to see these guys back

The worst judges EVER... Taisuke killed Lilou so far... Look at that Freeze!! Was the best of Taisuke ever.

if people in this comment section REALLY think this is the best battle they've seen....you obviously never seen REd Bull 2005 finals Lilou vs Hong 10. Or at least take a look at 2004 Junior vs Wake-up and see what a good battle ACTUALLY is

Best of Best

Para mi debio ganar TAISUKE, Fue Muy original y Preciso!.. ademas muy variado en footwork y PowerMove!..

TAISUKE Winner

Lilou had ultimate move and had all angle,Lilou not only dance he had personality,charge know what to do

Great moves with some epic music to go with it.

Yo, for everybody who was asking for the last song I just found it on soundcloud: soundcloud.com/derkkkkk/dj-lean-rock-sampler-02 Enjoy this masterpiece from Lean Rock. Peace

I root for Taisuke. Good battle.

the guy from Algeria is very very very strong

Judges must not like Taisuke. I think he won this battle. I remember another battle Taisuke was in and the judges gave it to the other bboy. The crowd booed with the judges decision.

Obviously taisuke won, lilou is good but taisuke is better in this battle

Taisuke as writer passage, lilou as crazy passage, with breakdance culture

Lilou mestre!! Melhor de todos os tempos!!

Actually Taisuke should win this battle. He abso Deserve this🔥🔥

losing a shoe and almost biting the floor like that, is the 2nd worst kind of crash next to actually hitting ur head on the floor

ahahah i laughed so hard at that asian dude in the crowd at 3:38 hes like "noooooooooooo!"

Damn so cool! They move almost superhuman! And it really feels like a battle too, awesome stuff

Taisuke Taisuke Taisuke.... Robbed Robbed Robbed

Taisukeeeee

Lilou just gets better & better ... love taisuke too !

1 round: Taisuke 2 round: Lil ou 3 round: Taisuke Period!

01:55 a simple skill can gives you a lot of meaning. Respect to Lilou and Taisuke

Taisuke IMO got robbed. He was flat out hungry to win this night and Lilou didn't seem so enthusiast compared to him in this battle.

think taisuke should've got this

lo mejor que ebisto ais es una batalla de verda, .. que le.den.sabor al.publico..grasias lovolveria aver una iotravez buenos bailarines

Bboy lilou is the best and he only do show thats really nice....lilou have respect........!!!!!

How was this close? Lilou crashed so hard in the first round while taisuke was just on fire. The third round Lilou did less than Taisuke! That's already2 out of three rounds. The only close round was round 2 and even with that being a tie Lilou lost 2 out of 3 rounds. Do you remember how Thesis lost to Toshiki because of ONE slip?

0:55 Lilou have Iron Balls

I miss these golden eras of redbull bcone

Greatest battle in redbull bc one ever Give me a battle more iconic !

someone now this musics ??? please, answer me, I love this kind of music :,D

Para mi, la batalla era de taisuke. Estuvo mas limpio y completo que lilou, tuvo mejores rondas de powermove buenos footwork y buenos freeze. En cambio lilou solo alardeaba con su aptitud de bromista. Tambien en varias oportunidades lilou se hizo el sordo con esos beats que aprovecho taisuke. Para mi el ganador seria el japones Es mi opinion por mi experiencia de jurado de bboying

What an EPIC battle!! Pure Entertainment!!! Lilou and Taisuke Are Master Legendary BBoys!!!

Me encanta la facilidad con la que lo hacen, ya me empiezo a imaginar lo mucho que tengo que entrenar para bailar a ése nível.

LOL that shoe went to outer space...

It was a 3 to 2 vote. Lilou in my opinion had more flavor, originality and variety with style/flexibility/power and signature styles. Taisuke had good blowups, dynamics and execution/power. So it was really close, but I thought the decision was fair.

Taisuke win +1000000000000

i love how they were crew mates but definitely no love for each other

1:11 lilou shoe is thrown back and lands perfectly on the stage wtf!!!!! lmao
