Alexander the Great vs Winston Churchill: who would win in a fist fight?
Pick the winner and how they win (TKO, DQ or decision), then see how everyone else called it.
Alexander the Great
“King of Macedon” · Macedon · 356–323 BC · about 5′7″ (170 cm), about 154 lb (70 kg)
King of Macedon who built an empire stretching from Greece to northwest India by the age of 30 and never lost a battle. Tutored by Aristotle; tamed the horse Bucephalus as a boy.
Winston Churchill
“The British Bulldog” · United Kingdom · 1874–1965 · about 5′6″ (168 cm), about 209 lb (95 kg)
Prime Minister who led Britain through the Second World War. Earlier a cavalry officer who rode in one of the last British cavalry charges and escaped from a Boer prisoner-of-war camp.

The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Churchill by TKO. Alexander leads from the front, as usual, and is wounded again by a bricklayer who is 25 kg heavier. Churchill's fencing footwork lets him counter every rush, and the referee stops it in round two. Alexander's unbeaten battle record survives; it was never a boxing record.
Fair fight? Weigh them in at the same 70 kg, so Churchill's 25 kg advantage vanishes. Alexander can then charge in without being flattened, and his cavalry-style rushes might finally land.
