Genghis Khan
“The Great Khan” · Mongolia · c. 1162–1227 · about 5′7″ (170 cm), about 165 lb (75 kg)
Founder of the Mongol Empire, which grew into the largest contiguous land empire in history. Rose from an outcast childhood on the steppe to unite the Mongol tribes in 1206.
Barack Obama
“No Drama Obama” · United States · b. 1961 · 6′1″ (185 cm), 175 lb (79.4 kg)
44th President of the United States and commander-in-chief during the 2011 raid that killed Osama bin Laden. Serious pickup basketball player. A natural southpaw.
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Obama by Decision. Obama wins by decision. As a taller southpaw he jabs from the outside all night, while Genghis, stripped of horse and bow, can't close the distance. Nobody is stopped; the scorecards come back unanimous, and Obama looks unruffled throughout.
Fair fight? Shrink the ring to a phone booth, so Obama's 15 cm height edge can't be used to stay outside and Genghis gets to work up close.
