Arguments for Mario:

• it's-a him, Mario
• he has an incredibly versatile toolkit through powerups: fire, ice, hammers, plus a menagerie of animals: bees, frogs, elephants, raccoons, cats
• we've seen this fight before, both in the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series and in the Mario movie, and Mario always wins

Arguments for DK:

• Bananza forms give DK arguably more offensive output than anything Mario can dish out
• Mario probably holds back in this fight, but DK is more ruthless and is known to hold grudges
• if DK shoots Mario, it's gonna hurt

Last topic, DK went splat from Hornet's attacks; consensus was, as another diminutive character put it, size mattered not.

Today is a special day for these silly little topics: it's the 50th one in the series! Wowzers! DK's been slinging it against all kinds of opponents, from fistfighters to mages, gunners to psychics. Bananza gave DK a potent upgrade, allowing him to hang with even tougher foes. His record post-Bananza is 4-5-1.

I've been saving Mario for a special day. These two have a lot of history together. How would a fight go without any sort of restrictions on what they're capable of? I wasn't sure what to "give" Mario in the way of powerups, but I figured I'd do what I always do and let you, the highly respectable voters, decide.

Let's-a go!
