No Celebrities Were Harmed: The American basketball playing fighter Magic Dunker is obviously modeled on real-life NBA athlete Magic Johnson.

Shoto Clone: Han Baedal and Kim Hoon. However, due to Fight Fever being modeled after Fatal Fury 2/Fatal Fury Special and Art of Fighting rather than Street Fighter II, they are more like Ryo Sakazaki and Robert Garcia (from the latter title) by having flying kicks and exclusive special rapid moves (Han's is a rapid punch move like Ryo Sakazaki's, while Kim's is a rapid kick move like Robert Garcia's). And while Han Baedal is Korean, he seems more faithful to the legendary Karateka also from South Korea, Masutatsu Oyama than Ryu is. For Kim Hoon, his look and stage match Ryo Sakazaki more than Ken Masters. In fact, Fight Fever's developer Viccom was SNK's Korean distributor who exchanged ideas with SNK while The King of Fighters '94 was in development at the same time and had the Art of Fighting characters' stage take place in Mexico (Which is likely why Kim Hoon is Mexican in spite of being named Kim Hoon).

comment
Wearing a Flag on Your Head: Magic Dunker wears an outfit that has an American flag motif to make it obvious as to where he is from. Done somewhat more subtly in the case of Han Baedal who wears a Martial Arts Headband that features the Taegeuk that is featured on South Korea's flag.

Eagleland: Both varieties are represented in this game. While Magic Dunker is a fairly benign representative of the United States, Nick Commando, a soldier who blatantly uses lethal weapons such as knives and grenades in a fighting tournament, is more of the America the Boorish flavor.

Shout-Out
 Fight Fever (Video Game) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Han Baedal, though largely modeled on Ryo Sakazaki, also takes several cues from Street Fighter's Ryu, notably even wearing a martial arts headband much like his (though with the addition of the Taegeuk on it). Kim Hoon also worth noting has somewhat of a resemblance to Ken Masters. Also, on the subject of Street Fighter pastiches, is also worth noting that Miyuki has a fighting style that is very much like that of Chun-Li. As mentioned under Malevolent Masked Men above, is basically Jason Voorhees with an American military motif. Karate Kenji has quite a few visual similarities to Geese Howard and Samurai Shodown's Haohmaru. Also not to mention using attacks largely lifted from the former including his own version of Geese's Raging Storm.
