Balrog Height: 6 ft 6 ((198 cm)) Weight: 298 lbs ((135 kg)) Background: Rising from a childhood poverty, Balrog was once a great boxing champion and a prize fighter who fought his way from the bottom up since he could learn to brawl. Due to his somewhat cutthroat and ruthless nature gained on the streets, however, he was banned from boxing in his career for permanently injuring his opponents and accidentally killed one ((as well as his illegal maneuvers, including his headbutt)). Though he enjoyed great fame, especially in his residence in Las Vegas, Nevada, he adored the money more than his glory, so he joined the Shadaloo criminal organization and worked his way up from the bottom, eventually he became M, Bison's chief enforcer
@@fightingtothepoint4u732 well he does hunch and bend his knees a little. I think he definitely looks at least over 6 foot, but yeah he doesn’t really look that tall
HIS REAL ENDING : After he won the tournament, Balrog became box champion, with the name TJ combo, but he was banned soon because of the implants in his arms, so he joined to the army to protect Earthrealm as Jackson Briggs. In a fight with a soul collector, he lost both of his arms, but with his new metallic ones he become a real hero. As a hero, he joined to the Regime, tag team with Superman, and continued the fight as the ultra- tech warrior, cyborg.
@King Cookie it wasn't copyright issues as there was no one named Mike Bison in real life. Capcom feared that Mike Tyson would have sued for his likeness but he said he would have been honored if they had stuck with the name.
Balrog is many things: boxer, gambler, cheater, and a liar. He knows how to throw some powerful punches and bring forth plenty of trash talking as well.
