Chris G (pictured left) looked to prove that his Sakura play is ready for the Capcom Cup at Next Level last night. Mission accomplished.

A former boxing champion and pound for pound great once said, "Ya'll Must've Forgot."

In case you have indeed forgotten, Chris G isn't just an Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 stalwart, he's also solid in Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition 2012 (AE 2012). For those who needed a refresher, the player took first place in the AE 2012 tournament at last night's (Oct. 2) Battle Circuit event at Next Level in Brooklyn, NY.

The durable play has to be a momentum boost for Chris G, who qualified for the Capcom Cup with his first place finish at The Fall Classic 2013.
