Ervin Chappell on Instagram: "Apparently Akira Toriyama made a drawing in homage to the iconic former MMA fighter Bob Sapp, around 2013. Interestingly, Toriyama already mentioned Bob Sapp in an interview, comparing Mr. Satan’s strength with his own.

Antoine the Great
Directory: Characters → Earthlings → Tournament fighters Antoine the Great (アントン・ザ・グレート, Anton Za Grēto) is a giant fighter who tried entering the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament. Antoine is a former pro-wrestling world champion. He was so strong that he ran out of opponents and had to leave...

I think we see a lot of wrestler crossover in the DB anime...
Also, Toriyama drew Bob Sapp, bro is super jakked.
I think Toriyama's style naturally makes big people bigger than they'd be in our world, but they might not necessarily be all that much stronger or faster.
Antoine the Great is an anime filler character I think, but it seems to be perfect. I think he represents how we view Andre the Giant.
So I don't think we need to make Antoine the Great a literal 12 foot guy here, I think how we typically view Andre the Giant is good enough.
Now, he's not so strict on what a human capabilities are, I'm sure someone like Bear Bandit can do some incredible feats.
But yeah, how strong is Bear Bandit and Pterodactyl compared to the top humans. Antoine the Great is probably smoking the Bear Bandit.
I previously thought the Bear Bandit pretty much beats all of humanity, but I don't think that anymore.
