Robert Richards (ロバート・リチャーズ, Robāto Richāzu), simply known as Bob (ボブ, Bobu), is a character from Bandai Namco's Tekken fighting game series. Making his debut in Tekken 6, he is characterized by his fast-paced fighting style, despite being overweight. He makes his return in Tekken 7, as well as the non-canon games Street Fighter X Tekken and, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, the latter of which also features an alternate version of the character named Slim Bob (スリムボブ Surimubobu), who is depicted as slimmer and weaker than him. Bob is a freestyle karate practitioner who takes special training to retain his speed while increasing his weight.
