Pick the winner and how they win (TKO, DQ or decision), then see how everyone else called it.
Ulysses S. Grant
“Unconditional Surrender” · United States · 1822–1885 · 5′8″ (173 cm), about 134 lb (61 kg)
Union general who won the American Civil War, then 18th US President. Slight of build, a superb horseman, and famously calm under fire.
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
Ulysses S. Grant 0%, Samus Aran 100% (1 vote).
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Samus by TKO. Grant stays calm under fire, but he's 17 cm shorter and 29 kg lighter, and there's no horse to jump the ropes on. Samus's jabs pile up until the referee stops it in round two, a TKO.
Fair fight? Move the bout to an open field and let Grant fight from horseback against Samus on foot. His record-setting jumping would finally matter.
