Read more about Fred Jones at: Wikipedia Official Site: Cartoon Network Frederick Herman Jones, better known Fred or Freddie, is a fictional character in the American television animated series Scooby-Doo, about a quartet of teenage mystery solvers and their Great Dane cohort, Scooby-Doo. In the original depictions, Fred wears an orange ascot around his neck. In the 1990s direct-to-video movies and in the 2000s series What's New, Scooby-Doo?, Fred's outfit was given an update, with the removal of his orange ascot and two blue stripes added to his sleeves. He is often shown constructing various Rube Goldberg traps for villains, which Scooby-Doo and/or Shaggy would often set off by mistake, only for the villain to wind up captured by the trap anyway. Fred leads the group in solving mysteries and often orders the gang to split up to search for clues. Fred usually takes Daphne with him while Shaggy and Scooby go off by themselves, although he would sometimes send Velma, along with Shaggy and Scooby. He is also very muscular, as seen in Scooby-Doo! Pirates Ahoy!. In A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, Fred was depicted as being slightly less intelligent than he usually was and more clueless to his surroundings, and was often believing in crazy legends such as Bigfoot and mole people, and in each episode would usually blame the crime on the neighborhood bully Red Herring, whose name is a play on the idiom red herring. However, 99% of the time he would be wrong, and would usually be followed by an insult from Red Herring. This was also carried over to more recent Scooby-Doo productions, most notably What's New, Scooby-Doo? and Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated, though the Red Herring and mythical creature obsessions were dropped (replaced with obsessions for traps, martial arts, wrestling, and bench-pressing).
Fred Jones has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
