Harimau

Японское имя:

ハリマオ

Harimau (ハリマオ lit. Harimao), a wild man from Malaysia, is one of Yabuki Joe's opponents in Ashita no Joe. He is a force to be reckoned with in the ring, as his unorthodox boxing mixed with his strength and agility make a hard opponent to fight. He is also known to be quite the cheater, usually biting and headbutting his opponent when frustrated.

"Feral Child" is an apt description for Harimau. He was born deep in the jungles of Malaysia to a remote tribe and can only speak their language. By 12 or 13, he was already able to defeat any animal in the jungle and by 16 he was already the strongest member of his tribe. An English reporter came to his tribe to write an article about it, and when he saw Harimau, he decided to see if he could teach the tribal warrior how to box. He became Harimau's manager and soon enough Harimau began doing official matches in the city. Harimau was revealed to have an astonishing talent for boxing and won match after match in a KO streak.
