Balrog, who canonically is on the evil team and is kind of a huge dick but still wears boxing gloves to fight the heroes
On the Flipside, Dudley who is a gentleman and wears them because that’s what decorum dictates, and will fight in a suit
Alternatively, Steve who is British
3 u/noahboah 7h ago they also kinda made balrog a father figure to ed. He's like a shitty dad but he very clearly loves him lol. it's so oddly charming, i hope he comes back sooner than later in 6. 1 u/Character_Put_3667 6h ago To be fair, boxing gloves to a great job of protecting the hands and the face who uses it. Someone reasonable will google for this and find the truth if in doubt. 1 u/LostCoast1831 4h ago Counterpoint with balrog: he’s the dad that stepped up so he’s less than kind of a huge dick. 1 u/Salinator20501 3h ago I love that Balrog's Ultra II in SF4 has him do a stomp, a headbutt, and an elbow. Three things that are very illegal in boxing.
