Idi Amin
“Big Daddy” · Uganda · c. 1925–2003 · about 6′4″ (193 cm), about 243 lb (110 kg)
Military dictator of Uganda from 1971 to 1979, whose regime killed an estimated 100,000 to 500,000 people. Earlier, Uganda’s national light heavyweight boxing champion for most of the 1950s.
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 crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Amin by TKO. Amin, a former national light heavyweight champion, is 25 cm taller and 15 kg heavier, so the self-declared Conqueror of the British Empire finally conquers one Briton. Churchill's fencing footwork lasts a round; in the second, the referee stops it.
Fair fight? Make Amin fight one-handed, and schedule the bout straight after Churchill's afternoon nap so the underdog is at least well rested.
