If all the US Presidents got in a brawl who would be last man standing?
- Thread starter Uncle at Nintendo
- Start date
The real truth is that every president pre-FDR would probably team up to beat down Obama for daring to be a black man
I know the popular choice is Lincoln or Teddy Roosevelt, but let's not discount Obama. He was in pretty good shape and has the advantage of modern nutrition meaning he is probably stronger than most of them, and has probably seen enough MMA fights in his time to pick up some cheap shots if he needs some
Are weapons allowed?
Abraham Lincoln keeps an Ak-47 under his hat, he blew Batman away with a rat-at-tat-tat

I know, I just figure Eisenhower will drive on the interstate and outpace everyone
Teddy is probably going to be up there as many have pointed out. I honestly bet that Obama would do well considering he was both physically fit entering office and one of the younger candidates on the list at inauguration. I bet Clinton could probably take a punch too.
He never lost due to flukes of ballistic physics, rather than skill. In several duels he was shot first. That included one bullet which lodged in his ribcage and caused him chronic pain for the rest of his life (which was another 40 years or so). I think that kind of thing needs to be counted against him. He was inaugurated at 61, and although there are still stories that show he was still a tough bastard at that age (like surviving the first presidential assassination attempt and then beating his would-be-assassin to the ground with his cane), the fact that he was that old (and also, using a cane) means that he'd be at a disadvantage in a physical fight.
Andrew Jackson was rather lucky with the duels so I wouldn't count him.
Damn the Eoin explained it better than I could.

man he was 5'11 300+, this guy is gassed by the middle of the first roundGrover Cleveland would fuck your shit up.
By the rules stated, it's gotta' be Teddy. He's got a decade or two on the most promising opponents.
True, I'm just betting on him throwing haymakers and hitting on his first few shots.Could prob take a punch as well. High risk, high reward fighter.
This is what I want to see. Will somebody do this please. Sounds fun.
I came here to post this. Thinking to myself "no one will remember this, and i'll look cool" LOL.
Hah damnit, I thought I was the first one. I missed the OG. I definitely remember, but I'm also old..almost old enough to have met Washington
I cannot tell you how many times I have thought about this.
Two Grover Clevelands though, that's an advantage no other President has.

LMAO. Same.
It won't even be a contest. George will win.
And the sad thing is that some people in the world genuinely believe this.
If limited to when they were president, it's probably Teddy.
Gerald Ford was a football player, so he might do ok.

Wait, Lincoln threw a guy across the room, and then resumed his speech?!? Why was that part not taught in my schooling.
Lincoln wrestled for extra cash on the Mississippi River in the 19th century. He would absolutely body anyone, especially with that reach.
