In a normal schoolyard tussle who would win? No holds barred.

Bud took boxing lessons, but this isn't boxing.

Bud played football, a kicker. Wally played football, basketball, and ran track, and probably was on the swimming team. I'd give it to Wally--he's also probably a little bigger.

It might come down to temperment and resolve. I think whoever would be more of a junkyard dog ( so to speak ) would be more of a deciding factor than a slight edge on size or strength.

Good point. In that case Bud would win, I think.

Bud didn’t mind getting dirty. Wally wouldn’t be giving 100% because he would have to answer to June about injuries and dirt. She would be coming at him with the Mercurochrome.
