Fidel Castro vs Little Mac: 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.
Fidel Castro
“El Comandante” · Cuba · 1926–2016 · about 6′3″ (191 cm), about 198 lb (90 kg)
Guerrilla commander who seized power in Cuba in 1959 and ruled for nearly five decades. Survived the Bay of Pigs invasion and, by Cuban count, more than 600 assassination plots.
Little Mac
“The Kid from the Bronx” · Punch-Out!! · 1987 · 4′8″ (142 cm), 107 lb (48.5 kg)
Seventeen-year-old boxer from the Bronx who punches his way up the rankings against opponents twice his size, coached by Doc Louis. Listed at 4′8″ and 107 lb in the original Punch-Out!!
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Little Mac by TKO. Little Mac slips Castro's wide, baseball-style swings and lands a Star Punch on a chin conveniently 49 cm higher up. Castro survived over 600 plots, by Cuban count, but not one uppercut from a Bronx teenager. The referee stops it in round two while Doc Louis pedals a victory lap.
Fair fight? Ban uppercuts. Without the Star Punch, Castro being 42 kg heavier finally matters, and Mac would have to win on points instead of a knockout.
