Profile

General:
As a young British boxer enjoying his run as the world middleweight champ, Steve Fox was at the top of his game. He had everything he wanted, except for one thing - his past. Adopted in his infancy, Steve never knew the identity of his biological parents or the origin of the scar on his arm. One day, Steve is ordered to throw a fight by a Mafia betting high stakes on the fight. Steve refused to cooperate and won the fight regardless of the threats made against him. Unfortunately, the Mafia made good on their threats and put a price on Steve’s head. With the Mafia in hot pursuit, Steve fled England for the United States to lead the life of a marked man. But no matter where he hid, he could not completely shake the Mafia henchmen. Steve realized that no matter what he did, the Mafia would eventually catch up and kill him. No one would ever know that he was killed, nor would he ever learn the truth about his past. With this realization, Steve decides to put himself in the limelight again and enters The King of Iron Fist Tournament 4.

Tekken 4

Comment:
Namco realized there was a lack of white boxers in fighting games... And alas, Steve Fox was born. His debut in Tekken 4 wasn't bad, and was fun to use, but he still needed to develop. In Tekken 5, he was given some new moves and maneuvers, and is probably the most dynamic and fun boxer to use in any fighting game (or boxing game for that matter). The strength of his design is definitely his unorthodox boxing style... "Hey you, you wanna try me guv?"
