Miyamoto Musashi vs Snorlax: 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.
Miyamoto Musashi
“The Sword Saint” · Japan · c. 1584–1645 · about 5′11″ (180 cm), about 176 lb (80 kg)
Japanese swordsman who said he won all 61 of his duels, and author of The Book of Five Rings. Famously turned up late to his duel with Sasaki Kojirō and won with a wooden sword carved from an oar.
Snorlax
“The Sleeping Pokémon” · Pokémon · 1996 · 6′11″ (210 cm), 1014 lb (460 kg)
Normal-type Pokémon that eats around 400 kg of food a day and then falls asleep, often in the middle of a road. Its stomach can digest anything, even mould.
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Musashi by DQ. Musashi, 380 kg lighter, spends round one dodging and painting the scene in his head. Then Snorlax uses Body Slam, which is a slam, which is a foul. The referee disqualifies the big fella, and Musashi wins without ever needing the two-fist version of Niten Ichi-ryū.
Fair fight? Make Body Slam legal and let Musashi bring his wooden sword carved from an oar. Then it's a real fight, though Snorlax still gets a Rest between rounds.
