We’re not too sure about this, but if Britain’s 2012 Olympic gold hopeful managed to snag the coveted top place in three years’ time in the taekwondo event, then we sure hope Michael Phelps will stick to Mario & Sonic at the Olympics when training for his pet events in London. Tyrone Robinson is already a British International Championship gold medallist and European Championship Bronze medallist in Taekwondo, and uses the recently released Street Fighter IV game to mentally rehearse moves, sharpen coordination, speed up reflexes and for advance fight planning. No idea whether the judges are going to allow Tyrone to throw a couple of Tiger Uppercuts or Hadoukens at his opponent when in the ring though, and you only get 1 credit to play with.
