Sen was just overhyped. His biggest achievment was beating a younger Wakatsuki in the past. He was scared by Rei the first time they met, and his first two fights were against "easy" opponents. Post Omori Fang and Gensai are a level above any other fighter in the tournament. It's not that Sen or Rei aren't two of the best fighters of the tournament, it is just that Fang and Gensai are outclassing them.

I disagree with that, it would have been the standard plotarmor shounen MC beats far superior opponent through power of will. Everytime this happens the mangaka gets lynched for being a 3rd rate writer. Ohma beating Wakatsuki was already just him plotarmoring his way through. What makes Kengan great is that there isn't really a proper main character once the tournament starts. The focus is always on the current fight. You don't know who is going to win, there's tension in almost every fight.
The sole exception is Ohma, he's using a special style that can do anything and has dozens of special techniques. His fights against any top fighter follow the same pattern, get dominated for most of the fight, and then make a comeback. The only difference in the final was that he didn't make the comeback. Excluding the last counter Ohma perfomed worse than Rei against Gensai.Both of them landed three clean hits, and the hits only landed because they caught Gensai by surprise. Rei's hits caused significantly more damage than Ohma's. The final wasn't even close, it would've been a disgrace if Gensai lost.
