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.
Zangief
“The Red Cyclone” · Street Fighter · 1991 · 7′0″ (213 cm), 256 lb (116 kg)
Russian pro wrestler who trains by wrestling bears in the Siberian snow. Loves his country, his muscles and the Spinning Piledriver.

The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Castro by DQ. Zangief is 22 cm taller and 26 kg heavier, and he chases Castro around the ring for a round and a half. Then the bear-wrestling instincts kick in and he hoists Castro for a Spinning Piledriver. The referee disqualifies him, and Castro wins in his fatigues.
Fair fight? Tape one of Zangief's hands to his belt so he can't grab anyone. Castro would then lose a real boxing match, but at least he'd lose it honestly.
