Best gamepad controller for fighting games? (UK, PC)

Looking for a new gamepad controller for fighting games, mainly sf6. I want either hall effect or TMR sticks I don't mind playing wired as I want minimum latency. I would welcome extra buttons. Ideally I don't want to spend more than £100 ($134). I'm on PC mainly but compatibility with PS4 would be a bonus although not a requirement at all. Controllers I was looking at include the 8bitDo ultimate 2 and gamesir G7 pro. I perform motion inputs using the analog sticks (weird ik) but I don't want a membrane dpad I like the feel of micro switches. I really don't know anything about the controller space so assume I'm a complete noob (I am). I'm from the UK but I don't mind buying from other countries such as China if the delivery fees don't exceed my budget. I usually surf sites such as eBay, Amazon and AliExpress. What would you guys/girls recommend?

Hey everyone, I've gotten really comfortable using the analog stick for motion inputs but I've recently learned from others online that dpad is the way to go. I'm not a high level player by any means and don't execute really long combos, usually learn the bread and butter combos and that's about it but the analog stick has been completely fine for them. Do I need to switch to dpad if I want to become more advanced and learn longer combos, how much advantage does it give? How many of you use the analog stick?
