Cody is my favorite SF character of all time.
Zaki did take down the entire cast of FF3 all by himself and was even about to defeat Terry. however, there is the part that Zaki is a cheap dirty fighter who uses the "all goes brawl" policy. the other guys from FF were regular fighters who fought with honor code. so its understood that Zaki was pwning them given his cheap tactics, his bloodlust and his brute power.
Cody, however, has the advantage of not only being too familiar with such tactics but using them himself.
they both:
-kick sand in their opponents' eyes
-use knifes
Cody even throws stones and has a tornade thing going. Not to mention he uses his cuffs for advantage....and can punch through walls.
Zaki's advantage is the snake arm, his brute strength and his madness.
if Cody can avoid snake arm (which would be a problem since he took down people who shoot bullets and arrows) then at an in-fight Cody is better but still it won't be easy since Zaki has that "hcb hcb + punch" special of his. Won't be easy for Cody but not impossible.
I'm sticking with Cody since he has a good chin too. COdy= 6/10
