Saddam Hussein
“The Ace of Spades” · Iraq · 1937–2006 · about 6′2″ (188 cm), about 209 lb (95 kg)
President of Iraq from 1979 to 2003. Launched wars on Iran and Kuwait and brutally crushed opposition at home. Found hiding in a hole near Tikrit in 2003 and executed in 2006.
Yoshi
“T. Yoshisaur Munchakoopas” · Nintendo · 1990 · about 5′3″ (160 cm), about 132 lb (60 kg)
Friendly green dinosaur and Mario’s loyal ride since Super Mario World. Swallows enemies whole with a long tongue and turns them into eggs. Nintendo has never published his measurements.
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Hussein by Decision. Saddam is 28 cm taller and 35 kg heavier, so he wins on the scorecards. Yoshi flutter-jumps around the ring and tries to swallow him, but the ground-pound is a foul the ref will notice. Saddam's jab piles up points until the bell.
Fair fight? Give Yoshi a heavier build, or let Mario ride him into the ring. Failing that, make Saddam fight while hunting for a hidden hole to escape down.
