It's not their first lost, Shadow lost to Vegeta, though that win was much more valid.

Haha, DK definitely wins this. Comics and Sonic X aren't canon.

If Knuckles didn't have a hyper form they would have just said Strong Kong cancels out Super Knuckles and leave it at that, they completely ignored when Knuckles OHKO Super Sonic instead opting for a non canon scene that paralleled DK's moonfeat, then they discounted it for being an outlier, even though DK's moonfeat was very freaking clearly an outlier too.

They don't seem to actually bother doing the math needed to find out who'd win, it just seems like they pick a winner and do just enough math to justify it.

Dk has a shitload of crazy high strength showings and durability showings, vs what 1 high level knuckles showing? They were just giving a calc on the easiet to calc of feats like that, I'm right now convinced he'd win based on strength and durability from the vid and comments still.
