Genghis Khan 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.
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.
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)
Samus by TKO. Samus is 20 cm taller and 15 kg heavier, and Genghis's childhood skills were riding and shooting, neither allowed here. She jabs him dizzy and the referee stops it in round two. His corner tries to throw in the towel, but it goes by Yam relay.
Fair fight? Move the bout to the open steppe and let Genghis fight from horseback with a bow, while Samus keeps only her fists. Suddenly the height advantage is hers to worry about.
