Machamp vs Theodore Roosevelt: 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.
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.
Theodore Roosevelt
“Teddy” · United States · 1858–1919 · about 5′10″ (178 cm), about 220 lb (100 kg)
Led the Rough Riders at San Juan Hill in 1898, then became the 26th US President. A keen boxer until a punch in a White House sparring session cost him the sight in his left eye.
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Machamp by TKO. Machamp wins by TKO in round two. Roosevelt, blind in his left eye, keeps stepping toward the side where two of Machamp's four fists arrive, then tries to carry on like his 84-minute speech after being shot. The referee wisely stops it.
Fair fight? Limit Machamp to two arms, so it's an ordinary boxing match. Roosevelt still gives away 30 kg, but at least he can count the punches coming.
