Speed & Weight
Speed. Weight. Power. The perfect body has all three, and as a martial artist, Bob has the discipline to achieve it. Aiming to prove himself the strongest fighter there is, Bob was on his way to The King of Iron Fist Tournament 7 when he ran into Bryan Fury in the middle of a destructive rampage. In an effort to prevent further casualties, Bob went head-to-head with Bryan. However, he was injured when the road suddenly collapsed and was forced to be hospitalized. After days upon days of being served bland hospital food, Bob finally reached his breaking point and dreamt up his very own hamburger recipe. The moment he was free of his hospital bed, Bob started a brand-new burger chain to overwhelming success.
He only found greater acclaim upon his release of "Bob's Onigiri," a new signature menu item that sent the entire U.S. into an unprecedented onigiri feeding frenzy. In the meanwhile, however, G Corp had been proceeding with its worldwide armed invasion. It was only a matter of time before it set its sights on New York as the next target to bring under its control. Having covertly seized control of G Corp, Kazuya Mishima appears before the masses in his devil form and announces his plan to take over the entire world by force. With the military rendered useless in the face of the devil gene's overwhelming power that defies human comprehension, humanity is forced to pray for the arrival of a savior. The economy begins to collapse, and the number of those suffering after losing their jobs skyrockets. Upon seeing people struggling, Bob begins a food bank where he gives out hamburgers and onigiri for free. A post on social media goes viral explaining that "onigiri" can also mean "killing devils" in Japanese, and soon, the phrase "Eat onigiri to slay the devil!" is splashed across every platform. As the man who made onigiri the latest craze, Bob becomes an overnight sensation, being dubbed the "Onigiri Savior."
Amidst Bob's runaway popularity, word soon spreads of his status as a martial arts prodigy, as well as his past as a bail-bond agent. Before long, the people of New York begin to chant, "Bob for District Attorney!"
In response to the dire circumstances, the Manhattan District Attorney's office reaches out to Bob and officially taps him to become the D.A.'s Detective Investigator. Bob, also known by his full name Robert Richards, is suddenly swept up to a level of unexpected prestige. However, with his unparalleled sense of justice, Bob is ready to answer the call and bring Kazuya Mishima to justice.
Just you wait, Mishima! With this perfect body, I will bring down the hammer of justice upon you!

The Perfect Body
A man renowned as a bounty hunter who developed his body to immense proportions in order to fight larger opponents. While others vehemently disagree, Bob believes that he now has the "perfect body". He is extremely smug, and is stoic in the face of adversity. Julia, worried that the box may be used for evil purposes, hires Bob to travel with her to the South Pole.

"Speed and weight!"
Once a fighter who had won the hearts of fans with his excellent sensibility and handsome good looks, he decided to transform himself completely by gaining weight to eliminate the perceived disadvantage he had in a fight due to his body type. Hi fans were disappointed, as on the outside it looked like he'd merely put on a few too many pounds, but Bob was definitely pleased with himself.

The King of Iron Fist Tournament 6
Bob had always been very serious about his training. He was hailed as a master of martial arts from a very young age, and he garnered many fans with his chiseled body and good looks. However, he could not defeat opponents who were larger than him. He vanished from the martial arts scene and dedicated himself to a special training regimen that increased his power and weight while maintaining his agility.After several years in seclusion, Bob returned to the fighting world a changed man.
Those who know Bob were astonished by his transformation. His handsome looks were gone and he gained a disproportionate amount of weight. Bob paid no attention to his critics, and relied on the benefits of his training: speed, power and unyielding weight. He decided that he was ready to return to competition; he joined The King of Iron Fist Tournament 6 to test his martial arts abilities once again.
