Genghis Khan

The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Genghis by DQ. Genghis is 5 kg heavier and ties Alexander up in a clinch. Faced with a knot, Alexander does what he does best: skips the untying and stomps. The referee disqualifies him in round two, and Genghis's corner doesn't even need the Yam to deliver the news.
Fair fight? Give Alexander a 5 kg weighted vest to even the weights, and put a clinch-escape tutorial from Aristotle in his corner so he learns to untie a knot legally.
