You know one thing you gotta admit when it comes to fighting Rufus is in his own right a genius as his martial art is entirely self-taught from watching karate videos. Plus he is, to a very small degree, able to use Ki. Quite the man.
He must be like 450 lbs and moves like an acrobat, blasts people with his hands which is probably a Ki attack. Not sure how he does whatever he does in his ultra 2, that's just crazy.
In all fairness, he didn't JUST watch martial-arts flicks to learn his style. He actually travelled to separate fact from fiction when it comes to performing moves, and, in the process, probably gained a lot of the fluid grace and noble technique he has. The sort one wouldn't expect from a guy who looks like he does.
Quite possibly the most badass fat guy in a fighting game. He made an entirely new style of Kung Fu simply by watching corny Japanese movies and without any special training, is capable of channelling his Ki to generate shockwaves and vacuums. All while being borderline obese.
@@philithegamer8265 its was literally one of the best newcomers, personally and gameplay wise, the problem is that SF fans are nostalfags and they don't stop playing the world warriors
Rufus:so ken masters, at last we meet this is gonna hurt like nobody's business. Ken:hmm this could be interesting,bring it on meatball. Rufus:WHY YOU.
I know a lot of people dislike Rufus, but in my book he gets a pass just by virtue of his defining character trait being that he hates Ken almost as much as I do.
Can you imagine if Rufus was SF6 and we got a remix of this song? "Ha! Looks like I finally won Ken Masters! You lost your precious family, but my sweet Candy is still with me after all these years."
I just thought of something: In Street Fighter 6, Ken is on run from the law, and that could mean Rufus might try to take his place as U.S. Martial Arts Champion.
There may not ever be a time like this, since Rufus is majorly disliked... But if there's ever characters to come back in Street Fighter 6, I better hear a remake of this theme during that Capcom reveal and it better be glorious.
Y'know, I never was able to fully get into Rufus, but boy, do I appreciate him. Also, his theme is pretty freaking catchy, n' I get it stuck in my head several times.
I'm not gonna lie, this character is BADASS! His theme is friggin awesome, he hilarious to look at, and I have beaten over 70 Oni players online with this dude. Rufus has to return in another street fighter.
+Grantito Johnson I also think that Rufus is a good character. Unique character design, funny dialogues (albeit very long), good movesets, but he's also underrated. And most fans dislike Rufus for some reason ;-; and I don't think he'll be back in SFV, even as a DLC.
+Emperor Palpatine i tell cam cop to make him return in more street fighter games to come not as dlc cause he is funny, has a bad ass theme and his cutscences make us laugh btw….this is all your fault KEEEEN MASSSSSSTTTTTTEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRS!
+Emperor Palpatine The only reason his not likeable because his design is basically made to be hateable rufus is a cool guy, he even gets a girlfriend man
Also the fact that he mistakenly calls every blonde character Ken Masters except in a mirror match. He even called Ryu "Ken" because of his similarities with him.
Believe it or not Rufus is actually a pretty good character, ive seen Rufus players take down top notch Akuma players and Ryu players as well as other top tier characters. He may look silly looking but don't let appearances fool you
I LOL at the people hating on Rufus for being chosen over King Cobra, the 10 millionth shoto. We have enough Shotos... Rufus is awesome. Cobra isn't. Get over it.
i remember before trying to play the character, i assumed he would be far more rude than he actually is. I mean, he is arrogant and not too bright, but asides from that he is'nt that disrespectful of opponents when he don't confuse them with Ken Masters.
Would want him to appear in Street Fighter 6 DLC his Story should be Giving Ken Master a Helping Hand from being Framed by a Bad Guy like Rufus would atleast Support Ken Master this time instead of Trying to find and beat him.
"Ya listen here, Ken Masters, I may hate ya guts n' all, but bein' framed?! Nobody, and I mean, NOBODY, should hafta deal with that! I've seen COPS, I know! So I'll help ya out!....NOT ONLY BECAUSE O' THAT, BUT BECAUSE *I'M* THE ONE THAT DESERVES TA BRING YA DOWN!!!"
Fat guys tend to be the strong-but-slow, hard-hitters, right? Screw that, because Rufus is actually a SPEED-based character! I don't care if someone else has done this before (and I don't even want to hear about Bob from "Tekken") because it's freakin' awesome.
Poison was a woman in the Japanese release of Final Fight. But she was edited in the US manuals of the game to be a transsexual male due to fears that women's rights groups would boycott the game. It became a very prominent rumor. Despite this, Poison is still a woman. Capcom have confirmed this several times.
My favorite character because he’s a goofball , a badass , already has a hot girlfriend candy, he’s a comic relief, the answer to Johnny cage in humor and he’s better than Dan hibiki
King Cobra was the name of the famous Muay Thai fighter who was challenged by Japanese slef style karate master Mas Oyama of Japan. Mas Oyama was a well experienced high level karate master who traveled to Thailand to take on the best of all their Muay Thai fighters and surprisingly he succeeded even against King Cobra. Mas Oyama was the inspiration for many fighting game characters (SF Ryu and KOF Takuma) while King Cobra inspiration for others (SF Sagat) Not sure about Rufus' old design tho
He's funny and has a lot more personality than half the cast and has a unique fighting style he made up himself from watching kung fu movies. Ryu on the other hand has the personality of tree bark and about an interesting a fighting style as watching paint dry.
To elaborate, Rufus believes himself to be the best fighter in the USA and thus isn't exactly happy about how much publicity Ken receives that claims him to be the best fighter in the USA. To prove that he deserves the title, Rufus decides to search for Ken and defeat him in a fight.
Juri: ah you look like you're in good shape.
Rufus: I KNOW RIGHT!
jury:ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!you are in a bad shape.
rufus:i know right.
jury han Joke killer.
***** Then , sorry.
I think he I just over weight because he eats because of stress
He actually eats a lot to build up his "Iron body"
You know one thing you gotta admit when it comes to fighting Rufus is in his own right a genius as his martial art is entirely self-taught from watching karate videos. Plus he is, to a very small degree, able to use Ki. Quite the man.
He must be like 450 lbs and moves like an acrobat, blasts people with his hands which is probably a Ki attack. Not sure how he does whatever he does in his ultra 2, that's just crazy.
Sammo Hung
I mean from only watching this fat beast can control his own ki
In all fairness, he didn't JUST watch martial-arts flicks to learn his style. He actually travelled to separate fact from fiction when it comes to performing moves, and, in the process, probably gained a lot of the fluid grace and noble technique he has. The sort one wouldn't expect from a guy who looks like he does.
Respect 👏🏽
Guile is from: America
Rufus is from: 'Murrica
Learn the difference, It may save your life.
Rufus isn't from 'Murica at all. His accent is blatantly northeastern. Same goes for his girlfriend.
i guess it's kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good place to watch new movies online ?
@Marvin Rocco thanks, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) Appreciate it!!
@Stephen Timothy you are welcome xD
go home and be a family man...
Guile is the American Dream.
Rufus, The American truth.
Apparently the American truth knows Kung Fu.
The American Dream is Dusty Rhodes
Capcom: “he’s just a funny joke character just make whatever”
Music director:
I actully kinda like him ngl
Rufus: How Japan sees America
Dan: How America sees Japan
Tien needs some attention lol
Dan Hibiki sucks though he is like the Yamcha of Street Fighter
Talhe
So Blanka is how Japan sees Brazil?
@@PauloRicardo-ev4om no, blanka is not necessarily a joke character
@@PauloRicardo-ev4om não,isso seria a laura matsuda
Love or hate him, this theme is spitting fire
Este tema lo toco con bastante bass booster lo merece
If rufus got into sf6 i might cry hr could even get character growth by being the only person being able to help with what ken is going through
This would be a funny way to bring him back into real focus, and you’d already know he’d help but gloat about how he’s the real champ afterward lol
Yo i was thinking the same thing
*Ken:* (sigh)
*Rufus:* What's wrong?
*Ken:* I miss my wife Rufus. I miss her a lot. I'll be back.
Capcom had no business giving a character like Rufus such a good theme song
Guile : American Dream
Rufus: American Reality
Balrog: America's other aspect
Ken: Rich Kid.
Crisis7 " Balrog :America's other aspect"
Well played.
How about Guy and Cody
Karl Christopher Cody, Americas statistic
Cody, Americas other OTHER aspect
ThunderboltJohnsonIII guy?
Karl Christopher Sorry, the second Cody was supposed to be Guy
Quite possibly the most badass fat guy in a fighting game.
He made an entirely new style of Kung Fu simply by watching corny Japanese movies and without any special training, is capable of channelling his Ki to generate shockwaves and vacuums.
All while being borderline obese.
borderline obese ? you're kidding right?
+Cameron Biel Sorry. *Absolutely Obese*.
Reminds me of Sammo Hung style
He mistakes pretty much everyone with Ken:here's a list of people he mistook for Ken:
Abel
Cammy
Dan
Vega
Ryu
Makoto
Guile
Poison
1. E-Honda “Street fighter”
2. Birdie ”Street fighter”
3. Bo rai cho “Mortal kombat”
4. Rufus “Street fighter”
5. Bob “Tekken”
Rufus, more like "Obelix's secret identity when he goes street fighting"
More like Oblelix's American descendant
Now that I think about it....Rufus is a LOT like Obelix
Yeah true with the beard he and long pony tails
As a blonde martial artist, this guy has me constantly looking over my shoulder.
No one likes Rufus from SF4.
@@philithegamer8265 its was literally one of the best newcomers, personally and gameplay wise, the problem is that SF fans are nostalfags and they don't stop playing the world warriors
@@javiergiandinotto1053 LOL! Wut?! Everyone hated Rufus back then. Dude has no fanbase. You're all alone on this one.
@@disgusting_developer5041 No one thinks Rufus is cool. Not even SFIV's narrative makes you want to believe Rufus is a cool character.
@@disgusting_developer5041 Not as cool as one would hope it'd be. It's more of a fake/joke rivalry at best.
Rufus:so ken masters, at last we meet this is gonna hurt like nobody's business.
Ken:hmm this could be interesting,bring it on meatball.
Rufus:WHY YOU.
I know a lot of people dislike Rufus, but in my book he gets a pass just by virtue of his defining character trait being that he hates Ken almost as much as I do.
This guy is the reason why I will never be able to pronounce "Ken Masters" in a normal tone again.
I can't even read it in a proper tone
*kEn MaSteRz*
Accent on the masters
Can you imagine if Rufus was SF6 and we got a remix of this song?
"Ha! Looks like I finally won Ken Masters! You lost your precious family, but my sweet Candy is still with me after all these years."
They teased Ken falling to his urge to kill in his arcade mode, but Rufus being an insensitive dumbass is what finally pushes him over the edge
I just thought of something: In Street Fighter 6, Ken is on run from the law, and that could mean Rufus might try to take his place as U.S. Martial Arts Champion.
You've fought the rest now fight the best!
Rufus later in the 4th match of the tournament loses to Ken Masters the reigning 3 time champion
*dum*
It should've been "you fought the rest, now fight me!"
I read it with Rufus' voice
☝️
Glad to see he is not underrated as a character anymore. He is really awesome and fun to play
Hey Rufus... Mind passing me that glass of WATAA
Sure
I am in awe of the size of this lad, absolute unit
There may not ever be a time like this, since Rufus is majorly disliked... But if there's ever characters to come back in Street Fighter 6, I better hear a remake of this theme during that Capcom reveal and it better be glorious.
I have actually seen a similar fat man who could move freely as a cheerleader or something. Martial arts is a crazy world. All kinds of people exist
Juri: 😋😏MMMMNM you can see that you are in good shape
Rufus: I KNOW IT VERY WELL BABY.
i don't care what anyone says, this guy is fúcking _awesome_
Fax
Thank you
I can only wonder what sort of antics would ensue if rufus and ken got handcuffed together XD
spacepuppy720 haha haha haha I should so write a story where that happens
PLEASE DO that would be gold XD
spacepuppy720 okay I'll start writing it soon
+Jerry Gonzalves alright I'm looking forward to thanks
spacepuppy720 awesome
Y'know, I never was able to fully get into Rufus, but boy, do I appreciate him. Also, his theme is pretty freaking catchy, n' I get it stuck in my head several times.
I love fighting Juri with this guy just to hear her say "Mmmm you look like you're in good shape." That just amuses me so much lol
Ikr same
The background lol
hoo ha
Like a samurai yell in the background
SHO-HA! SHO-HA! SHO-HA! HAI! WATAA!
I didn't expect that Rufus would have this badass theme :D
Glad to see a comment section heavily positive over rufus. Been seeing a lot of unfair negativity over rufus lately...
Rufus - how Japan sees America
Dan - how America sees Japan
I'm not gonna lie, this character is BADASS! His theme is friggin awesome, he hilarious to look at, and I have beaten over 70 Oni players online with this dude. Rufus has to return in another street fighter.

+Awesome Ninja GET CAM COP ON THE PHONE ASAP!!!
+Emperor Palpatine The only reason his not likeable because his design is basically made to be hateable
rufus is a cool guy, he even gets a girlfriend man
i like him cause he mistaker any blond or any thin person for ken hes funny and if he was real i would have a hard time beating him!
1:13 sounds epic in any other way
"The fat lady is about to sing" LOL
I want Rufus for Street Fighter V honestly. For him to challenge Ken Masters once more. xD
David Modesto I commented something similar and it seems a lot of people agree
Rufus VS Birdie, the two fattest in Street Fighter.
Also the fact that he mistakenly calls every blonde character Ken Masters except in a mirror match. He even called Ryu "Ken" because of his similarities with him.
I would love to see another fat fighter in street fighter
Never say never
If Rufus comes back in SF6, I bet he will mistake Luke and Ed as Ken Masters.
I freaking love this guy!
He like Johnny cage of street fighter
Oh finally someone who actually like rufus,yeah only took me like 12 years to find one
Dude,Can you even imagine what'll happen if Rufus meets SF6 Ken considering his mind state ?
That's what I was thinking! Him in SF6 would only hurt Ken even more..
That, or Rufus, for some weird reason, offers his help.
I unironically love Rufus
I remember when SFIV first came out and people used to believe this was Fei Long's theme
Whenever i heard this i thought it was saying "SHOWTIME "
I love that his backdrop is just a graffiti covered picture of Ken, Makes perfect sense.
One of the best theme songs, and it's for a comic relief character.
CAPCOM Y U DO DIS?
I wonder if Rufus could beat Ken. He's strong as hell and really agile. Would love to see them get a true animated fight
"ILHL GEHET YU KEHN MASTUHS!"- The Totally Epic Rufus
THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT! KEN MASTUHS!!!!!
The theme has a Hsien-Ko's theme feel to it, where they add in battle grunts as part of the music. Which is great sounding.
It does not have a heisien ko music feel in to it
He means the battle grunts make them sound similar, but i agree with the fact it doesn't have a similar music style that Hsien-Ko's theme has.
***** the only music that can compare to hsien ko's music is vanity paradise from darkstalkers 3
It's different than that of Rufus's theme. It sounds "........ -Kiai (pronounced "key-eye") is a Japanese term used in martial arts. "
I can't believe Rufus won in the long run LOL
edit: yep the SF6 comic just cemented that fact even harder
Rufus should definitely be in the next Marvel vs Capcom game. It'd be hilarious.
Rufus:I found you! Let's battle now!
Ken:come on meatball.
Rufus:why you?!
One of the most hated characters in Street Fighter history...
...and I love this goofball to heck.
AMERICA SHEDS A TEAR
SPACE OPERA SYMPHONY!
helfire14 *hands up* OOOHH!
GOOD BYE!
The United States do sometimes produce fat slobs but some of them handle themselves alright
My favorite character!
SHO-HA! SHO-HA! SHO-HA! HAI! WAHAA!
I love this ridiculous man!
Rufus is my favourite jiggly boy! XD
Believe it or not Rufus is actually a pretty good character, ive seen Rufus players take down top notch Akuma players and Ryu players as well as other top tier characters. He may look silly looking but don't let appearances fool you
Anyone: Exists Rufus: *kEN mAztERz*
Daily reminder that this guy apparently became the Number 1 fighter in America according to Street Fighter x Tekken
I LOL at the people hating on Rufus for being chosen over King Cobra, the 10 millionth shoto. We have enough Shotos... Rufus is awesome. Cobra isn't. Get over it.
NICE THEME!!!
GREAT SONG!
Loved this Character.
The theme that goes with nothing XD
Lucas Hpm It goes well with a crazy, obese, suprisingly agile self-taught martial artist, that's for certain.
+Warlord SteelShroom Goes well with buffets, too
+Warlord SteelShroom Rufus beign agile is the one of the things that makes me hate him so much. Not even E-Honda is that fast! And he's muscular!
Don05 it’s disappointing cuz E-Honda’s a sumo wrestler and sumo wrestling requires a lot of explosive power and speed
The theme that goes with his cocky personality and arrogance
i remember before trying to play the character, i assumed he would be far more rude than he actually is.
I mean, he is arrogant and not too bright, but asides from that he is'nt that disrespectful of opponents when he don't confuse them with Ken Masters.
Best character ever.
Bombur IKR
I got you *KEN MASTAS*
Yeah Rufus is great
Nah
@@thebloodedge284 Yah.
Obese
"You fought the rest. Now fight the best!"

this would make a Total Fitting Sense wish the Fat guy would come back.
Or he could be the US world champion since Ken's on the run.
This is a badass kinda biker USA fighter
0:07-Why does that sound reminds me Majin Buu.
Who added Caseoh to street fighters 4
Yo why the hell is his theme so awesome
Fat guys tend to be the strong-but-slow, hard-hitters, right?
Screw that, because Rufus is actually a SPEED-based character! I don't care if someone else has done this before (and I don't even want to hear about Bob from "Tekken") because it's freakin' awesome.
"It takes a long time to master kung fu."

But she was edited in the US manuals of the game to be a transsexual male due to fears that women's rights groups would boycott the game. It became a very prominent rumor.
Despite this, Poison is still a woman. Capcom have confirmed this several times.
This beat is catchy plus I can hear Rufus`s voice on a high pitch I think
To me Rufus is like the closest street fighter has to a wario like character
My favorite character because he’s a goofball , a badass , already has a hot girlfriend candy, he’s a comic relief, the answer to Johnny cage in humor and he’s better than Dan hibiki
KEN ISNT RUFUSES RIVAL. RUFUSES RIVAL IS ACTUALLY DIET AND EXERCISE.
Ken's wife took the kids in street fighter 6 RUFUS WON
Lol 💀
That's the joke. He's meant for comedic relief, even though in reality his skill shouldn't be underestimated.
dat background xD
best played when you honing your kung fu skills..hehehe
has anybody noticed Rufus actually looks like he's about to fall right now.
This theme makes me almost wanna play rufus
Goddamn when you run into an A Rank Rufus... Shh--hit! This theme has a whole new meaning when you see a master use him.
The vocals sound like Mario after a whole lotta cocaine
I want Roy Nelson to come out to this at least one UFC event.
Ken:bring it on meatball
Rufus:WHY YOU!!!

Rufus is cool though love ya Rufus
Tell that to Candy.
i heard the guy who originally came up with him was so surprised by original and final designs that he didn't even realize it was the same character
He's funny and has a lot more personality than half the cast and has a unique fighting style he made up himself from watching kung fu movies.
Ryu on the other hand has the personality of tree bark and about an interesting a fighting style as watching paint dry.
Is it me or don't it seem that Rufus is the Wario to the world of Street Fighters? Think about it...
All who think Rufus should become a DLC in Street Fighter V, say "Aye" in a reply.
Aye
OBJECTION! I-I mean "Aye"!
SirSirupy ??? Yes or no?
Aye!
Aye.
Holy shit, imagine the salt when Capcom reveals this guy in front of the public.

Rufus for SFV
Rufus for president
Ironically this is good workout music
Great fighting game era with Justin Wongs rufus, lots of fun matches
Rufus is honestly a chad
Diddy Kong confirmed for super street fighter 4 DLC
Get that smash shit outta street fighter
Rufus has definetely the best theme
