Alexander the Great vs Samus Aran: 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.
Samus Aran
“The Hunter” · Metroid · 1986 · 6′3″ (190 cm), 198 lb (90 kg)
Galactic bounty hunter raised by the bird-like Chozo, who wipes out Metroids for a living. Nintendo lists 190 cm and 90 kg; fans still argue whether that includes the Power Suit.
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Samus by TKO. Alexander leads from the front, as he always did, and walks straight onto the jabs of someone 20 cm taller and 20 kg heavier. He's been wounded many times and keeps coming. In round two the referee stops it anyway. Aristotle's game plan never covered this.
Fair fight? Weigh Samus in at 70 kg, matching Alexander, so the only gap left is height. Then he can at least jab back at something.
