Abraham Lincoln

16th US President and commander-in-chief through the Civil War. As a young man, a feared frontier wrestler said to have lost only once in about 300 matches. In the National Wrestling Hall of Fame.
Machamp
“The Superpower Pokémon” · Pokémon · 1996 · 5′3″ (160 cm), 287 lb (130 kg)
Fighting-type Pokémon with four muscular arms. Its punches can send an opponent clear over the horizon, but anything delicate gets its arms tangled.
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Machamp by DQ. Machamp's arms get tangled in Lincoln's letter-stuffed stovepipe hat, but the 33 cm taller Lincoln then hoists the 48 kg heavier Machamp in a wrestler's reflex throw. Foul. The referee disqualifies him, and Machamp wins by DQ without landing a clean punch.
Fair fight? Legalise wrestling throws, so Lincoln's Hall of Fame skills count for him instead of costing him the fight.
