Appearance
History
Baki the Grappler
Underground Arena Saga
He was the final opponent that Baki faced during the 18th Annual Karate Tournament at the Budoukan Arena. Suedo was extremely confident, however he was worried about Baki's abilities. Due to this fact, Suedo decided to wear a special template (a dental device that joins the resistance power of the head and spine to increase his overall strength by 30%). However, he later shattered his template and spitted it out.
At the very beginning of their match, Baki dislocated Suedo's shoulder with a precisely placed jump kick. However, Suedo, ignoring the referee and ringside doctors, managed to relocate his shoulder. Even Doppo Orochi admitted it was a painful feat.
Abilities
Suedo is a very tall man with an incredible strength, speed, and striking power. He is capable of bench-press 270 kg and run 100 metres in 11 seconds. Suedo could even fight Kaioh Dorian for a short time.
Suedo was also capable of relocating his shoulder into the place, as seen in his fight against Baki. Suedo has a high durability. He could withstand Baki's attacks and he even survived after falling from a rollercoaster.
