From SNK:
Native American fighter Rick Strowd made his series debut in REAL BOUT FATAL FURY 2 (1998). One of Fatal Fury's few true boxers, the so-called White Wolf of the Ring claws his way into City of the Wolves with hard-hitting punches from the past and a new Aggressor Style stance, complete with versatile follow-ups (overheads, lows, catch counters, and more). Rick has evolved into a technical fighter who combines devastating power with a high-level mind game, forcing sharp reads and split-second decisions from his foes.
