Idi Amin 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.
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.
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)
Amin by TKO. Amin, a 1950s national light heavyweight champion, is 20 kg heavier and actually trained for rings. Samus does most of her work at range, so he pins her on the ropes in round two and the referee stops it. He then awards himself "Conqueror of the Metroids."
Fair fight? Make it a proper weight class: Amin cuts down to Samus's 90 kg. Then it's a trained boxer against a woman who mostly wins by not being in the room.
