First of all, in the mario games involving DK, peach was not the one kidnapped. I think it was some girl named Paula, I'm not totally sure. Princess Peach was introduced in the origional Super Mario Bros.
Anyways, bowser would win easily. Everyone already said the reasons, so I have nothing else to state

If you are going to take that approach Mario in those games wasn't even named Mario. He was called "JumperMan". In the Super Mario Bros. her name was Toadstool. In the GB game Super Mario Land, her name was Daisy (but she still looked like Princess Peach, not the recent Daisy in Mario Party). Bowser was called King Koopa. Donkey Kong just sounds better than King Koopa anyway.

that is true, Donkey Kong is a cooler name than King Koopa, but Bowser is cooler than Donkey Kong, and Donkey Kong isn't the bad guy in any Mario games anymore, it is now Bowser, teh uberest bad guy (for nintendo at least)

it was Paula, but like "JumpMan" they changed his name Miyamoto (creator of Mario) changed his name to Mario and "Paula" to Princess Peach, just to make it make more sense, why save a person named Paula, he had to make it a princess
