Story

The son of a Russian senior bureaucrat, Biff has received special education in wrestling since he was a child. He practices an assortment of martial arts (sambo, karate, etc.) and has won many championships. Disliking showmanship, Biff prefers executing his attacks with concentrated power and playing out every move in his head. At one time, he was a student at Mike Haggar's gym, along with his friend/rival and fellow wrestler Gunloc. It upsets him greatly that some individuals consider wrestling to be fake.

Trivia

• Biff also appears in the background of Ken Masters' stage in Street Fighter Alpha 2.

• Biff's quote when losing alludes to the possibility that he was once a training partner with Zangief: ("Comrade Zangief was right! You all play cheap!").
