Pick the winner and how they win (TKO, DQ or decision), then see how everyone else called it.
Napoléon Bonaparte
“The Little Corporal” · France · 1769–1821 · 5′7″ (169 cm), about 170 lb (77 kg)
Emperor of the French who conquered much of Europe before his final defeat at Waterloo in 1815. Not actually short: about average for his time. The myth came from British cartoons and French inches.
Solid Snake
“Iroquois Pliskin” · Metal Gear · 1987 · 6′0″ (182 cm), 165 lb (75 kg)
Legendary special-forces operative and a clone of the soldier Big Boss. Expert in close-quarters combat, infiltration and hiding in cardboard boxes.
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Napoleon by DQ. Snake outboxes the shorter Emperor for two rounds, slipping every lunge with textbook footwork. But CQC muscle memory takes over in round three — he clinches and starts choking Napoleon out, and the referee disqualifies him on the spot. Napoleon, half-conscious, is declared winner anyway.
Fair fight? Legalize submission holds, since Snake's entire skillset assumes he's allowed to choke people unconscious.
