    Found this video on youtube. Balrog does finish people off the way Tyson did. He throws those devastating hooks and uppercuts. He's quicker than Tyson, though. :shock:

    Balrog was based off Mike Tyson because in the Japan version, he was named M.Bison (which rhymes with Tyson). You can guess what the M. stood for.

    I always thought Balrog was based off Tyson. It all made perfect sense when I read years ago that my assumption was correct. He doesn't just resemble Tyson facially, but he fights like him, too.

    Balrog v. Mike Tyson is just the pre-lim; the main event:

    GANDALF vs. DON KING!!!

    Nice video, i thought it was quiet sad at the end of the video where the old man was saying Tyson is as close to being a worthless human being as possible, while their showing clips of Tyson helping disabled children, giving items to the poor and homeless and feeding the animal in the zoo.

    Those who say Tyson is "evil" are off the mark, he is a confused & troubled individual...

    To use a Jim Lahey analogy, Tyson was a "**** apple" who didn't fall far from the "**** tree" (his father) & grew up in a field of **** (Brownsville). However, when i watched Tyson helping poor, disadvantaged kids on 'Taking on Tyson', i could clearly see the goodness within him.
