Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Patton by TKO. Patton wins by TKO in round two. Mussolini strikes his bare-chested harvest pose for the cameras, only to meet a 19 cm taller Olympic pentathlete who feels he has done this before in a past life. His fencing stance can't block a jab, and the referee steps in.
Fair fight? Score the bout on flattering photographs instead of punches, or make Patton fight from his knees to cancel the 19 cm height gap.
