Rafael "Fatman" Benitez
Born 1960 Madrid. Weight 16 stones

Fighting style: Can sustain lots of punishment and will take a few shots to get close to his opponent. Fights best at close quarters where he can use his girth and low centre of gravity to good effect.

Special Moves: "The Handshake" - If the Fatman offers you his hand, don't take it! His vice like grip has been known to break fingers.

"The Rhino" - If the Fatman gets on the move he will attempt to gore you like a rhino. A headlong charge at speed can be difficult to avoid.

Profile: The Fatman appears outwardly to be a jolly and amiable chap, but lurking beneath the exterior is an astonishing temper. When the red mist decends the Fatman can fly into a tempestuous rage, and woe betide anything that gets in his way.

Grew up as a peasant farmer in La Mancha but was forced to leave his home town after the 1978 potato scandal in which he was implicated as part of a racket to import cheap foreign spuds and pass them off as local sweet potatoes.

The fatman has never been allowed to return to his homeland, and has been ostracised by his family for the shame he brought on them.
