Kirby vs Yoshi: 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.
Kirby
“The Pink Puffball” · Nintendo · 1992 · 0′8″ (20 cm), about 4 lb (2 kg)
Round pink hero of Dream Land who inhales enemies and copies their powers. Officially about 20 cm tall, and far tougher than he looks.
Yoshi
“T. Yoshisaur Munchakoopas” · Nintendo · 1990 · about 5′3″ (160 cm), about 132 lb (60 kg)
Friendly green dinosaur and Mario’s loyal ride since Super Mario World. Swallows enemies whole with a long tongue and turns them into eggs. Nintendo has never published his measurements.
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Yoshi by Decision. Yoshi is 140 cm taller and 58 kg heavier, but Kirby is a bouncy 20 cm target who refuses to fold. The referee never stops it, so Yoshi's busier punching wins the scorecards after three rounds of chasing a pink balloon.
Fair fight? Make Yoshi fight on his knees so Kirby can actually reach something above the ankle, and give Kirby a boxing-glove-sized stool to bounce off.
