In addition, Hugo's unique intro animation with Alex is based on the famous match between Hulk Hogan and André, which took place at WrestleMania III. His updated design for Street Fighter V also features a costume similar to Andre's well-known wrestling singlet. Hugo's design is a homage to famed real-life wrestler André the Giant (who coincidentally has the same birthday as him), as is those of the entire Andore family of enemies (likely intended to be named Andre). To Hugo, potatoes are a symbol of strength and manhood, as his mother had inspired him to "grow like a potato" in childhood. In Ultra Street Fighter IV, Hugo is revealed to have a fixation on potatoes, as he can be seen talking about them frequently in his win quotes against other characters.

Hugo also takes a lot of pride in his size, strength and extremely muscular build, to the point that he often claims to barely feel most attacks as a taunt of sorts. However, he is very short-tempered and will make any excuse to get into a fight, especially if he or his best friend Poison is insulted in any form. Hugo is often depicted (especially in recent portrayals) as somewhat typical "dumb muscle", being quite unintelligent and dimwitted this is somewhat accentuated by his odd facial expressions, and he even occasionally acknowledges this. Teaming up with Poison after the fall of Mad Gear in order to prove himself in the art of international fighting, he enters the world warrior tournament. He also wears a chain as a necklace and studded bracelets.Įver since his defeat and humiliation at the hands of Mike Haggar during the events of Final Fight, Hugo has been determined to assert himself as the number one wrestler in the world. profile art, Hugo wears a pink leopard wrestling jumpsuit with a strap over one shoulder, a large, black belt and brown boots. Also during certain animations as he stands still or crouches, he does a very visible twitch/spasm. During certain animations, they become visible, revealing that he has no pupils later portrayals would make his pupils more visible. In the Street Fighter III series, his eyes are normally obscured by shadow during battle, giving him more of a sad look. He has long, messy black hair, that bounces and moves around as he moves and attacks.

He wears a thick chain from the back of his waist, to 3/4 of the way around his waist, ending at his hip.
