Mickey Rogers was
a professional boxer, but was expelled from the ranks after he accidentally
killed a man in the ring. He currently stalks Southtown seeking opponents
to vent his anger and frustration on, and enters the tournament for the
same reason. When he debuted, Mickey had long hair, worn in dreadlocks. In AOF2, he has short hair.
In the first Art of Fighting, Mickey becomes a small time hood who works for Mr.
Big so that he can get money as a street hustler. in Art of Fighting 2, Mickey has since reformed, wanting to get back into the professional
boxing circuit. In Mickey's AOF2 ending,
his trainer Pops (who is visible in Mickey's stage as well) informs him
that his time has come, and he has a title bout. We then see Mickey training
for the fight, confident that 'Mickey the Mauler' is going to be the next
champion of the world. His Burning Upper is similar to Geese
Howard's Reppuken.
