The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Machamp by TKO. Machamp arrives already wearing the champion belt, and Hitmonchan's blur of punches barely dents him. Hitmonchan is 80 kg lighter, and the boxer's spirit inside him weighs nothing. In round two the referee stops it, before a Machamp punch heads for the horizon.
Fair fight? Tie two of Machamp's arms behind him, one pair per fighter, and add a 20 kg weight limit gap rule: Machamp must lose the belt's swagger. Then Hitmonchan's speed gets a real argument.
