  • Mike Tyson/Balrog

    Anyone see this? Lol. Reminds me of my childhood playing SF2 on the SNES.

    In the Japanese version Balrog was called Mike Bison instead of the final bos being M. Bison.

      Yep. Been playing fighting games since the original SF2 so that's old news to me, haha.

      US - JP
      Balrog - M. Bison (like Mike Tyson)
      Vega - Balrog
      Sagat - Sagat
      M. Bison - Vega

        Who wins?: Bruce lee vs mike Tyson

        Here is a computer simulation between the two combatants in a best of 3 type series with ample recovery time permitted between each bout. Hopefully the simulation will help you make your decision if you are on the fence.

        SPOILER ALERT: Lee edged the trilogy in a close fought rubber match showing great bouncebackability in a FOTY candidate in Tyson v Lee II:

          Originally Balrog (the boxer)was named M Bison (Mike Tyson). But since the rape accusation, In America...they switched the characters names

          M Bison (boxer) to Balrog

          Vega (Leader) to M Bison.

          Balrog (Bull fighter) to Vega

            Haha that was great thanks Rafael. Barlog had the best music and fight scene. Kinda hard watching tyson destroy berwick after what happened to him. Greatest game ever.

              balrog's theme is criminally underrated.

                No.. It wasn't the rape case... Balrog was one of the bosses in the first game I do believe, but capcom didn't want to get sued for likeness infringement, especially since mike Tyson punch out was one of the biggest games of the late 80s..

                He was originally inspired by mike Tyson, and was to be called mike bison, but didn't want to deal with the potential legalities so they switched some names around and we got balrog and m. Bison

                  Prime Tyson wasn't just a man, he was an animal. The average person would probably break their wrist if they punched tyson square in the throat.

                  Tyson could stand his own against anybody. Including the fighters from street fighter if they were real. His power is already superhuman. He's built like a mountain and he hits like a freight train.
