<P> Bear Hugger has received mostly positive reception . He has been described as a favourite of the series by IGN editor Levi Buchanan, a statement that Official Nintendo Magazine editor Tom East echoed . In their list of the seven best second quests, GamePro listed the Title Defense mode of Punch - Out!! for the Wii, stating that losing to the "squirrel - assisted" Bear Hugger would demonstrate the difficulty and creative talent of the developer Next Level Games . The Escapist editor Greg Tito wrote that he giggled every time Bear Hugger called the player character Little Mac a "hoser ." On the other hand, Allgame editor Skyler Miller opined that while Bear Hugger was humorous in Super Punch - Out!! for the SNES, he was not quite "out there" compared to boxers from Punch - Out!! for the NES . </P> <P> Bear Hugger personifies several stereotypes of Canadian people, including being a lumberjack by trade and his love for maple syrup, ice hockey and the wilderness . He is bald, and has a thick, brown beard and mustache, as well as a tuft of chest hair . He also wears overalls . As seen in one of the cutscenes, Bear Hugger does boxing training with bears . He also uses a squirrel in his boxing . In discussing stereotyping in Punch - Out!!, GamesRadar editor Brett Elston stated that Bear Hugger embodied several stereotypical Canadian traits, including being husky, loving the outdoors, ice hockey, and drinking maple syrup . Canadian GamesRadar editor Tyler Wilde jokingly stated that the stereotypes were "absolute malarky," stating that they only consume maple syrup on special occasions, and even then, only from "goose - shaped goblets carved from pine wood ." Editor Scott Jones commented that Bear Hugger's Canadian origins predisposed him to consume the "big jug of booze" with which he is portrayed; however, the jug actually (or at least ostensibly) contains maple syrup . (cf . the character shift in Mike Tyson's Punch - Out!! from "Vodka Drunkenski" to "Soda Popinski"). IGN editor Craig Harris listed him as one of the game's "over-the - top" caricatures . Kotaku editor Michael McWhertor praised the stereotyping of characters in the series, stating that it was improved in the Wii Punch - Out!!, and stated that Bear Hugger was "extremely Canadian ." The Globe and Mail editor Chad Sapieha, writing about the roster of fighters in Punch - Out!! that "would send chills down the spine of any potential pugilist," mentioned Bear Hugger as one of these boxers, calling him "ostensibly Canadian". </P> <P> In the version of Punch Out released on British home computers in the 1980s as "Frank Bruno's Boxing", Bear Hugger is renamed to be' Canadian Crusher' with reference to his Bear Clap move . </P> <P> Dragon Chan is a character in both the arcade and Super NES versions of Super Punch - Out!! . He is a martial artist from Hong Kong, and can deliver a flying kick that the player must duck in order to avoid being instantly knocked down . In the arcade version, he is the boxing champion of Hong Kong, while he appears as the second opponent of the Major Circuit in the SNES version . </P>
