GENERAL/STORY:

Together with his friend and manager Poison, Hugo became a top pro wrestler and Ultimate Fighter. However, the decided that he needed a tag partner and entered the third tournament to find one. During the tournament, he fought Ryu and managed to survive a Shin Shoryuken. He was eventually defeated though, and seems to have failed in his mission. It's unknown whether he knows or cares about Poison being a transsexual. His design was inspired by the great "Andre the Giant" of WWF history.

Hugo's first appearance was as a random bad guy in Capcom's classic arcade beat-em-up known as Final Fight... He was known as "Andore" back then (which sounds and reads very similar to Andre).

REVIEW:
I never thought one of the classic "baddies" from one of my all time favorite 2D beat-em-ups (Final Fight) would actually make it to the Street Fighter series... Yeah, he looks dumb wearing pink and all, but he's supposed to look that way... Capcom kept his look nearly identical to his Final Fight appearance, which is always an effective element when bringing back a classic character.

Hugo's one freak of nature, he's huge!!! Capcom created a huge sprite for him in the SF3 series, and complimented it with some very fluid animation. Although his fighting style is clunky and off-balance, his sloppy wrestling style is completely unique to the fighting game universe, and never fails to entertain. As the "biggest" big guy in the Street Fighter 3 series (possibly the entire Street Fighter series), he really gets the job done.
