The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Ryu by TKO. Little Mac's Star Punch lands, and Ryu, who trades blows with his rival Ken for fun, simply blinks. Ryu, 37 kg heavier and 33 cm taller, answers with a Shoryuken. Doc Louis throws in the towel, probably while still sitting on his bicycle. Ryu wins by TKO.
Fair fight? Match them at the same weight: Ryu would have to shed 37 kg, at which point Mac's speed and Doc Louis's corner advice start to matter.
