The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Patton by DQ. Snake's close-quarters combat is mostly throws and chokes, so the referee is reaching for the disqualification card by round two. Patton, a 1912 Olympic pentathlete and 9 kg heavier, only has to stay upright while the heavy smoker wheezes. Patton wins by DQ.
Fair fight? Legalise grappling for this one bout. Snake's close-quarters training finally counts, and Patton's Olympic pentathlon background has to cope with being thrown around.
