If there was ever an actual encounter between the two, (Uninjured Human Garou before starting his hunt VS Suiryu at the beginning of the tournament) Garou would either win a hard-fought battle or loose at first but then return and win the second time. It makes total sense and I’ll explain to you why. Garou‘s strength, speed, technique and overall performance always skyrocket after a challenging battle. You can see this as early as TTM and later on with Bug God, Royal Ripper and Orochi. This is because he’s a „Genius“ like he always says it himself. This isn’t him being a pretentious prick, it’s just the truth. He’ll either win hard-fought (similarly to the A-class battle) or return stronger (like with Royal Ripper). Suiryu doesn’t have that. As soon as he’s outclassed, he’ll resort to fleeing, whilst Garou‘s Genius would try to figure out alternative attack options. We can see this in the battle with Orochi. Suiryu would have undoubtedly fled the scene, whilst Garou improvised on the spot in the heat (no pun intended) of battle. This is how I see it. You can prove me wrong if you want to, just give me some reasons.
