Maybe. Did he win states?

Scored 180 points in 1860 snagging 18 states.  Scored 212 in 1864 with an additional 17 bonus points.  Carried 22 states but also picked up another 2 at the All Star Classic

Jacob from the bible? He was 0-1

You sure about that:  Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel,[a] because you have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome.”

Sewing or safety pins?  Push pins weren't invented unto the 20th century.  And it's really hard to judge how many pins would've have fallen in 1864.  Don't know how one could even calculate that

yes, the angel touched his hip and popped it out of its socket and that was the end of the "match".  jacob didnt win. he Inj Def. 

 

besides all that, Lincoln's record is tangible and real. the bible is myth, parables, stories, fiction.

He didn't default he kept going.

When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. 26 Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.”

But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”

Regardless of which translation you choose (others say he survived, not won), its still a work of fiction. Lincoln's record is actually written in history. Jacob wrestling an imaginary figure isn't.

How can you prove Lincoln actually existed?

“We can only find one recorded defeat of Lincoln in 12 years,” stated Bob Dellinger, director emeritus of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame in Stillwater, Oklahoma. “He was undoubtedly the roughest and toughest of all the wrestling presidents[1].”

 
 
 

Lincoln was nearly impossible to beat in his time. According to historians, Lincoln has only one confirmed loss in allegedly more than 300 fights throughout an incredible 12-year span.

Here's another reference.

You're out of your element on this one. Jacob wrestling an angel never happened. Lincoln's wrestling was documented.

umm...no the source is Bob Dellinger, director emeritus of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame. The magazine is where he said it. 

 

It's baffling you guys are arguing that Lincoln's wrestling record didn't exist but Jacob, a guy from a book of fiction, wrestled an imaginary creature and that DID happen.
