Mike Tyson Highlight Reel Set to "Street Fighter" Doesn't Make Iron Mike Any Less Terrifying
Please, not in the face.
When Balrog was revealed as one of the four computer controlled bosses in Street Fighter II, it was painfully obvious that he was meant to be a parody of the American boxing gawd, Mike Tyson.
In Japan, Balrog was actually named M. Bison, with the letter being an initial for "Mike", because the Japanese are hysterical. What better way to honor that caricature than by setting some of Mike Tyson's earliest fights to Street Fighter sounds effects.
Don't say we've never given you anything.
