~ Balrog to Chun-Li |
Balrog (known as Mike Bison in Japan) is a character from the Street Fighter series. He appeared in the 81st episode of DEATH BATTLE!, Balrog VS TJ Combo, where he fought TJ Combo from the Killer Instinct series. He was voiced by Chris Jai Alex
History
In his childhood, Balrog lived in poverty, but he rose up and eventually became the heavyweight boxing champion. However, he was banned from the sport after he permanently injured opponents and even accidentally killed one.
Due to his greed for money, he joined Shadaloo, and worked his way up the criminal organization and, after some time, became M. Bison's chief enforcer and personal bodyguard.
