"Roosevelt was so anxious to prove himself in battle."

I think it is almost a certainly.

Say what you want, but TR was a 'Lion' and most likely with Jackson one of the two most manliest men to ever hold the office. I can only guess what their reaction if the two would have met 'Obadman'.

A fight between Jackson and TR both in their prime would have been fierce to say the least. As tough as Jackson was, Roosevelt was a trained boxer. I still would not count Jackson out tho. He might just find a way to win.

With guns I would go with Jackson. TR loved guns and shooting but admitted he was a mediocre shot. It might have had something to do with his poor eyesight.
