Line 30:
* Subverted in [[Hajime no Ippo]]. Russian boxer Alexander Volg Zangief is a force to be reckoned with inside the ring... but in normal life he is soft-spoken, friendly, [[Shrinking Violet|humble to the point of borderline shyness]], a sort of [[Momma's Boy]] and very gentle (and has quite the [[Ho Yay]] with Ippo, [[Yaoi Fangirl|Yaoi Fangirls]] say). He's not even ''that'' tall, either, compared with other boxers of the same cathegory.
* Nastasha Radinov from the ''[[Gunsmith Cats]]'' anime is a female example.
* Simon Brezhnev from [[Durarara!!]] is a giant, [[Scary Black Man|black]], Russian sushi chef. But he's a sweet guy, really.
** And too modest to admit that he's the only one who can go toe to toe with an enraged Shizuo. The actual chef and owner of the shop is a smaller example, but burly compared to the rest of the cast. It's implied that both of them have seen enough violence in their lives, and [[Retired Badass|don't welcome any more of it]].
* Boris from [[Black Lagoon]]. He also subverts it by being under the orders of a somewhat shorter woman named Balalaika... who, on the other hand, is a [[Magnificent Bitch]] as well as a ''very'' powerful [[Dark Action Girl]].
