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.
George S. Patton
“Old Blood and Guts” · United States · 1885–1945 · 6′2″ (188 cm), about 185 lb (84 kg)
US general whose Third Army tore across France in 1944. Competed in the first Olympic modern pentathlon in 1912, finishing fifth, and designed the US Army’s last cavalry sword.
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Patton by TKO. Patton, 18 cm taller and 14 kg heavier, believes he was an ancient warrior in past lives and fights like it's a reunion. Alexander, wounded many times leading from the front, charges in again and eats jabs all the way. The referee stops it in round two.
Fair fight? Give Alexander a 14 kg weighted vest to close the weight gap. Aristotle can work his corner, though his advice will probably be to stop charging in.
