Who wins?


I know many of you will probably ignore topic title and say Little Mac because he beat DK who can split a moon in half, yada yada yada. I think it'd be more interesting if the fight is Little Mac where his feats are more "realistic" in that the ultimate foe was Mike Tyson, who, as incredible of a boxer as he is, still is only human and not subject to the ridiculous video-game power-creep that is bound to happen over time. Perhaps unfair, but this also includes prime Rocky, who is inarguably Rocky IV Rocky since that's when he beat someone that was starting to feel more superhuman than just great boxer.

Rocky has that extreme durability in that he can take blows to the face and keep on punching through. He also has the ability to draw on extra energy when it seems he's down for the count. A very versatile fighter, he seems to be able to take on many different training regimens and fighting styles to attack the opponent in a way that gives him the greatest advantage.

Little Mac, on the other hand, has the biggest strength of boxing IQ. Perhaps he's at a bit of a disadvantage against many fighters that are bigger and stronger than him at the start, but he's able to figure out the patterns that those he fights employ, and use that to become unhittable and strike them at their weakest moments. He also has a devastating star punch. On the other hand, he is prone to running out of stamina quickly if he's not careful.

Alright, who do you think wins the fight?
