Fang was a lightweight robot built by Team Bulldog, which fought in Seasons 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 of Comedy Central BattleBots.
It was equipped with a crushing arm with a long spike at the end to damage opponents. Originally green in color, Fang was redesigned for future seasons. It was given omni-directional wheels to enhance its mobility and painted blue. It performed decently, reaching the Round of 32 once but never advancing any further. Fang also made an appearance during Season 2.0 but did not compete outside of the Lightweight Royal Rumble.

Despite its relative obscurity, Fang also made an appearance in the canceled BattleBots video game for PlayStation 2 and GameCube.
Team Bulldog also built another lightweight, Bombus Bombus, for the Long Beach event in 1999, but it could not compete in either of its matches due to numerous electrical problems.
