Edmond Honda vs Rufus

A heavyweight match (literally). From Japan, the kabuki facepaint-wearing sumo champion, Edmond Honda.
From the U.S., the trash-talking master of his homegrown style of Snake Kung Fu, Rufus.
The veteran and the upstart enter the arena. This should be quite the match.
HAPPY NEW YEAR, KMC!

Plotwise, Rufus is something of a joke fighter. Not a Dan-level joke, in that he's still pretty dangerous, but E. Honda should consistently beat him IMO.

Rufus in a blaze of fatty food fueled glory.

Rufus is Pretty fast and strong. He's shown Pushin his motor cycle with his girlfriend in it through the desert for long periods. He's also shown lifting a moulting boulder in the Game's menus.

That said, honda's has more expierience and skill, so I say a draw or maybe slight edge to honda.

E. Honda based on, well, nothing really. I don't actually have a reason to believe Honda wins.

Most of the minor characters don't have many feats.

Honda smacks Rufus's face in many times over.
