I might have to register my vote towards Sodom from Final Fight. This guy's so tough, he's the only boss in the game that doesn't need assistance from the lower ranks of Mad Gear. That, and it's a real bitch getting tackled by him. It's impossible to avoid sometimes. Also, Rolento is an excellent boss. He might not have the most life, but DAMN, is he hard to touch! Then there's his Minesweeper, where he jumps onto the girder in the background and rolls, dropping several grenades at you in the process. What rocks about these two is that they were faithfully translated to the Street Fighter Alpha series, and they're two of my favorite characters in that game. Any memorable BEU fights you have to share?

I liked the battle that I had with the end boss of River City Ransom. Basically just fighting back and forth to get the bat that I brought in and eventually I got some good hits off and then I beat him.

I loved fighting krang from turtles 2. It played the strangest music, and always laughed my arse off when his upper torso separated from his legs and the legs would run around and kick you! LOL

My favorite beat em up bosses have to be:

- Death Bringer (Golden Axe)
- Shredder (TMNT 2: The Arcade Game)
- Shredder (TMNT 4: Turtles in Time)

Abigail!!!!

Seriously, a massive hulk of a man who's not only named Abigail, but is dumb enough to keep charging even after you'ev busted him 3 times becasue of it! How can't you love it?

I never liked how Cody was put into Street Fighter Zero 3. Even though granted he's not a Final Fight Boss but still.

As for favorite boss I'll have to go with Shiva in Street of Rage 2.

Yamato - Streets of Rage 3

Best 3 part boss ever.
