Paul Phoenix

Paul is great fighter and a close friend of Marshall Law. He was the only one who fought Kazuya to a draw instead of losing. He entered the fist and the second King Of Iron Fist Tournament, but was unable to reach the finals because of different complications like a traffic jam.

Years later he joined the third King Of Iron Fist Tournament with the son of Marshall Law, Forest. He was unbeatable and even managed to defeat Ogre. He left not knowing that Ogre turned into True Ogre and was defeated by Jin.

Paul started his own dojo and became full of himself. He was boasting to be the strongest man in the world, but it was just getting on peoples nerves. He lost his followers and his dojo went bankrupt. When he heard of the fourth King Of Iron Fist Tournament he decides to join to prove he's the strongest man and win his respect back.

During the tournament he was doing very well, but he underestimated Kuma, who he beat before, and lost to him. Paul decides to train harder and enter the next tournament.

During the fifth tournament he met Kuma again and managed to beat him, but was too weak to continue to participate in the tournament.

Paul's debts started to grow and he decides to participate in the sixth tournament to get the prize money. But he couldn't do it alone. He decides to enter the tournament in a team to raise his chances of winning. He tells his plan to Marshall and he agrees, but tells Paul that they will have more chances of winning in a three man team and thinks Steve Fox will be a good addition.
