Who Would Win?: Bigfoot vs. The Loch Ness Monster

I've spent too much time on this question (honestly, any time is too much), but I think it's important that we arrive at a definitive answer. Who would win in a fight between Bigfoot and The Loch Ness Monster? I can't be alone in wondering this. If it were available on Pay-Per-View, you'd order it in a second without looking at the price (which would probably be astronomical) and invite all your friends.

I’m not sure what it is I love about these shows because the second I turn one on I know that they aren’t going to find anything. How do I know that? Because if they did actually find evidence proving the existence of Bigfoot, Nessi...
