The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Hitmonchan by TKO. Hitmonchan wins by TKO. Nelson is 25 cm taller and 10 kg heavier, but he has one working arm and one working eye against punches faster than the eye can follow. The referee stops it in round two as Nelson insists England expects him to continue.
Fair fight? Hitmonchan fights with one hand behind its back to match Nelson's one arm, and the ring is kept firmly on dry land so his seasickness has nothing to blame.
