Archimedes. He'd use mirrors reflecting sunlight to blind Euclid beforehand. And set the billiards table on fire.

Archimedes was a natural philosopher, hence familiar with geometry in addition to the forces required to obtain desired mechanical results. Euclid on the other hand was a mere geometer, thus unaccustomed to such. Therefore Archimedes would produce the victory.
