After school, hand behind the TV trying to tune CITV to "barely watchable" levels (A choice between decent picture / horrible sound or horrible picture / decent sound), then watch Fun House, always wishing I had those karts :pac:

If you get Challenge TV I seen that Friday nights at 10pm (what a bloody awful time) there are showing repeats of Fun House & Knightmare - another great kids TV show

NOOOOO, it doesn't sound anything like that,

Other guesses over the years were "Get the Paw" and "Grasshoppa" but after hearing it a million times, it's definitely Raise The Paw*.At least all 3 sound similar, definitely no grand upper.

*to me anyway

You are definitely wrong, the commonest idea is that he says 'Uppercut', which is also wrong. Think about it, it's a low quality voice played on a fairly primitive console, it's not going to be clear. I always thought Mario in MarioKart said 'Mexico' but he obviously says 'Let's Go!'

http://bareknuckle.wikia.com/wiki/Axel_Stone

Contrary to many beliefs, Axel says "Grand Upper!" when you execute his >,>,B move in both Streets of Rage 2 and Bare Knuckle III
In Streets of Rage 3, perhaps as a homage/in-joke, this was changed to "Bare Knuckle!"

In summation:
You: wrong
Me: right

I've finished Streets of Rage 2 about 20 times, I've listened to it enough!
(for the record, I used to think he said 'Get the Power')

You might be talking about two different phrases. At 58sec in the video above you can hear him say something that sounds very like 'Raise the paw'. However I think it could be 'Raise the power' in an Asian accent.

Um... I don't know - Looks like the same game to me! Except my one had 'Rusty Cage' and a few other songs like that

Edit: Actually I don't think I had it on Sega, think it was on Playstation? Not sure though. That's probably what it is.
