Anyway here is a sample game in the Fried Fox Defense:

Takeaways:

  1. The Fried Fox Defense may not be 100% sound. 
  2. Once White obtained the imbalance of an unopposed dark square bishop he made the most of it by opening up the dark squares and launching a dark square attack. 
  3. It's good to be king!
