The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Chun-Li by Decision. Chun-Li hands over her spiked bracelets, then spends nine minutes kicking a man 44 cm taller. Zangief lumbers after her, busts out some dance footwork, and mostly eats shots to the ribs and thighs. He's too tough to stop, but she takes a unanimous decision.
Fair fight? Shrink the ring to the size of a phone booth so she can't circle him. Her speed then means standing in front of a bear wrestler, which is his idea of a good time.
