HEAVY D!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heavy D! trained since very young to be a professional boxer. He builded
up the power in his fists and arms, but he never got his chance in the big
leagues. Frustrated and alone, Heavy D! dedicated himself to random fights in
private boxing rings, and then retired to seclusion in his turf, where he
thrived his feeling of combat in the streets.
After several years, a new chance appeared for Heavy D!. He received an
invitation for the new King of Fighters tournament introducing the team battle
concept. Happy to finally do battle in the professional ring, Heavy D! knew just
the people who would help him: his friends, Brian Battler and Lucky Glauber.
Forming the USA Sports Team, the three enter the tournament, but do not have
much success. Heavy D! then goes back to training in order to perfect his skills
and be ready for the next invitation to the King of Fighters!
Heavy D! is quite a cool and calm man, and in fight, he moves like a bird
and strings like a mosquito. He is also pretty calm in battle, and does not
dispair under any circumstance. He respects all fighters who are very skillful,
and also gets disappointed by those who do not show their true power. Heavy D!
also likes to visit bars and the slums frequently, and encourage young ones in
practicing a sport.
*Fun fact = Heavy D! also seemed to appear frequently in the King of Fighters
backgrounds after KOF '94. In KOF '95, he appeared in King's bar drinking it up
with Duck King. In KOF '97, he also appeared in the China stage twice! (With his
team, and with Duck King).
Appearances: The King of Fighters '94, The King of Fighters '98
