Axel Hardrada

is a boxer in Punch Out!! - To Glory. He is a Champion, Swedish Boxer who has trained himself since the age of 5. 
 
==Backstory==
At a young age after Axel's father had abandoned him calling him useless, Axel trained himself and used what he knew about survival to to build a habitat in a forest. 
At the age of 26 he was approached by two business men, who wanted to hire Axel for their boxing association. Hardrada accepted and was illegally modified to become the world champion. Many tabloids and fans are somewhat suspicious of his behavior, as his strengths racks up to a large scale. 
==Personality==
He used to be shy and anti-social when he was younger, but after he found his talent in boxing, he grew a tad bit more confident and usually shows off his strength, however this usually leaves him open for attack. 
==Attacks==
Axel rarely dodges but seems to still block as he still has a bit of shyness in him, and we all know what happened to Narcis Prince when he didn't block. 
===Viking Sequence===
When Axel is close to being knocked down he will unleash a sequence of quick jabs and headbutts, which will then lead to a strong uppercut to finish the player off. The player can block the jabs but is hopeless against the uppercut, however if a star punch is timed correctly at a headbutt, it can stop the sequence. 
==Quotes==
*För Sigurdsson! About to unleash his Viking Sequence. 
*Skulle av brung min hjälm... (Should of brung my helmet) After he gets star punched. 
*Jag kommer aldrig ge upp! (I'll never surrender!) After he gets back up. 
==Trivia==
*He was originally not gonna be the main champion, but a major circuit fighter. 
**He was also going to be called Sargent Smash. 
*He is loosely based off Dolph Lundgren. 
*His sirname comes from Harald Hardrada.
