I chose this guy partially because it's pure nostalgia for me, partially because it's a generic cyborg that I can go crazy with. I'm trying to challenge myself with a design that features a lot of hardsurface parts and realistic human elements, rather than go for another monster as I tend to do
So basically, kickboxer with realistic prosthetic limbs (going to go for the bare mechanical elements without 'skin') and a few cyberpunk elements like his eye.
Refsheet & early sketches:
There's a few sketches of MudMan as well, ignore those. They're there so if you choose Mudman I can go 'pfft. Guess where he got THAT idea?'

You could try looking at deus ex 3 for inspiration maybe? It has some sleek looking stuff.
Also, might be an idea to push it somehow, rather then just a straight update - perhaps play with the scale of his rocket leg or something? Only half of him is mechanical, perhaps make it larger or Asymmetrical somehow?
Cheers
He is the original kickboxer, lol.
