Theodore Roosevelt vs Samus Aran: 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.
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.
Samus Aran
“The Hunter” · Metroid · 1986 · 6′3″ (190 cm), 198 lb (90 kg)
Galactic bounty hunter raised by the bird-like Chozo, who wipes out Metroids for a living. Nintendo lists 190 cm and 90 kg; fans still argue whether that includes the Power Suit.
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Samus by DQ. Samus, 12 cm taller, circles to Roosevelt's blind left side and banks early rounds. In round two, the 10 kg heavier Teddy forgets the rules, remembers his White House judo, and hurls her over his hip. The referee disqualifies him. Samus wins by DQ, slightly dizzy.
Fair fight? Move the fight to a judo dojo, where Teddy's throws are legal and Samus has to deal with them. He gets his favourite tools, and she gets a proper test.
