Ron's style is a sort of one-hit-kill, right?
Between the two Ron's the one with the AP advantage, looking at both it seems there's about a 2X difference.

Before starting with the skill comparison (something I can't do with Ron, at least for now, since I have yet to reach that part of the manga), I will mention what this Ken does and what I believe are his advantages.

This Ken is basically a bloodlusted version of the normal Ken, retaining his moveset and skill (up to SF2) but with the sole purpose of killing the opponent, and maybe tapping into the original purpose of his fighting style, the Ansatsuken, since it was intended to be an assassination art.
I think he might be prone to start first and rush on Ron, also because Ken's the most physical between him and Ryu, but it's not impossble for him to start with Hadokens.
And here we move to the first advantage Ken has, his projectiles. Unlike normal Ken this doesn't care about honor, so I see it possible for him to just spam hadokens against Ron once he notices he can't reply and isn't used to deal with projectiles shot at him.
Ken also fights a lot with kicks, with may be a trouble for Ron, as he seems to use an arm-based style, so I'm unsure.
Other advantages the blond fighter has there's the LS advantage, useful to push his attacks through Ron's defenses, a teleport technique to avoid attacks and catch Ron by surprise and from blind angles, and the ability to generate fire with his punches and kicks which would, obviously, burn Ron and maybe even set him on fire.

a very interesting take: so you are voting for ken?

Not yet, I will wait for Baki supporters to give inputs on Ron, I'll also try to contact a couple of them.

Ron's IC style is to literally sit in one spot, wait for you to get close and hit you in retaliation.
He has absolutely no answer to ranged attacks at all and he's so stubborn he refuses to do anything else.

Violent Ken for Hado spam and slight teleport with his dash

Also violent Ken beat Bison to death in both USF2 and SVC Chaos despite being made by him in both so I think it's safe to say he has skill advantage as well.

 

[SamanPatou]

I'm voting for Ken, then.

This sould make it three votes, I think.
