Another old school legend from Los Angeles.  Watson’s Ryu is legendary and set the standard for shoto play in SoCal in the 90′s.   Many of his old tournament victories from the pre-a.g.sf2 days appear to not have been recorded but he still boasts impressive victories, including Midwest Championships in 1993 (Super Street Fighter II), Midwest Championships 2000 (Super Street Fighter II: Turbo), B4 Championshps, DEVASTATION 2008 and more.  He is known for his Super Turbo skills but also played at a high level in all the Alpha games and SF3 series.

Mike is still involved in the fighting game scene and now runs Super Arcade in Walnut, CA.  He recently has teamed up with Alex Valle (Level|Up) to bring Wednesday Night Fights: Arcade Edition to the SoCal community and to many more via the WNF stream.
