ESWC

Justin Wong, regarded as the top US SSFIV player & entertaining top player Martin “Marn” Phan,  have been invited to the upcoming Electronic Sports World Cup to compete in Street Fighter IV to represent US. Unfortunately they have to have tickets by the 11th of June and cannot afford to go. As a favour to Justin, Marn has set up a paypal account for donations so that Justin can hopefully get there.

It should be noted that everyone’s donation will be refunded if either Justin wins the tournament or not enough money is raised in time. They are both important to the community we all love so please help out if you can, any size donation would be very much appreciated.

The Paypal address is ttp1999@hotmail.com. This was originally put on EventHubs.Com and can be found here.

Shock ending to Diago vs Justin at LA Fight Club

Last night at the LA Fight Club event hosted by Capcom Diago Umehara and Justin Wong faced off once again. It was the best out of 5 and it went the distance…Both of them had times of domination with Justin even managing a perfect, but even more shocking was when Daigo looked to be winning easily in the final round until Just came back and it ended in a double K.O!

It was the craziest thing I’ve seen and they will have to wait until Evo to settle this.
