Who wins? it's an alley way brawl...

Have you ever seen those cheesy kung fu movies where a really powerful character punches this huge (but perfectly circular) hole in his oppositions chest?

Well...

Sabertooth has an adamantium ribcage, but Danny'll blow the tissue out the back of it, anyway, wink.

I thought Sabretooth lost his adamantium ribcage (and that only Ultimates has the adamantium.. + 4 claws)

Danny dodges all of Sabes attacks... and rips out Sabes eyeballs and stuffs it back into his own esophagus.

No he never lost it. Really how does danny dodge sabertooth attacks? Please I love to know how Danny dodges all of sabertooth attacks when sabertooth has superhuman agility and reflexes

Is there anyone who actually read IF and knows the outcomes of most of their fights?

It's on the top of the second page (well close), but there is some really good feats on that there first page.

Anyway, the only two people off the top of my head that have danced around Hulk (streetlevel) were Iron Fist and Spider-Man.

Fist beat Sabertooth already but that was pre-Adamantium bullshits.

it not very impressive really. DD done it wolverine or sabertooth could both do it how ever unlike the others they can take the punishment so why keep dodging when you can reak in some real damage.

Sabes takes it.

Danny top-tier. But Sabes is on another level after his enhancements. Sabes wrecked Bone-claw Wolverine, had Metal-Wolverine questioning if he could win. Sabes also wreaked Maverick, sent Omega Red running, was beating Sasquatch, and wreacked Wendigo.

When he was just old-Sabretooth he could crush steel weights with the bar and made it into a tin-foil. Now he was uprgaded in strength, speed, durability and healing. Plus he has adamantium. Like most advanced street level characters. Danny can win, but just not the majority.
Sabes 7/10.

Ok. All the X-fanboys need to really check out the Iron Fist respect thread.

What that thread shows, is how things REALLY are in the MU, without the terrible, sales-fuled writing for X-fans that has ruined so many of the characters.

Yes, people, Iron Fist can take Sabertooth. Yes, he man-handled Wolverine and all of the X-men.

Yes, he did this while he was in a weakened state.

Iron Fist is the Real Deal. End of story.

In the last 10 years, all the X-characters became almost unbeatable. Or, should I say "Nigh"-unbeatable? Hehe.

Somehow, they all became more powerful. Almost all of them are practically scientists, they are so smart! So funny.

Can take blows from some of the strongest beings in the universe, without even losing consciousness.

It's a big mess.

Back, when comics were actually readable, yes. Iron Fist was a baddas.

And, yes. He can take Sabertooth.

But he's still one of the biggest badasses, capable of amping himself with chi to spiderman level speed, and capable of dishing out insane amounts of damage with the Iron Fist.

Daredevil1
None of the street level characters are as fast as Spiderman. There close like Daredevil, Cap, and Shang. But Spiderman has that advantage.

During Danny's fight with Spiderman, Spidey had the edge.

But anyway's Sabes it too much with adamantium. Danny definatly can win. But not a majority.

actually yeah... in their first fight (sabretooth's first appearance) danny comments on how sabretooth fights with absolutely no skill, just all brute force and speed... eventually sabretooth uses snow glare to temporarily blind iron fist... iron fist then proceeds to clobber sabretooth while blinded.

they fought again and sabretooth and IF were going back and forth so sabes switched off the lights in the room they were in, then he attacked IF using his night vision... IF once again clobbered him in retaliation without being able to see him...

now was DO have to remember this is pre-mauraders sabretooth, this sabretooth only had razor sharp claws, 2 ton lifting max (possibly 3), olympic level agility and enhanced animal senses...

he had nowhere near the fighting skill he was written to have later, he didn't have a healing factor, he didnt' have his trademark super strength and speed, he didn't have any of the weapon x upgrades he's recently been given either.

IF had the chance of beating sabretooth back in the old days but even then it was close and sabretooth's ferocity terrified danny... since then sabretooth aquired noteable superpowers, described combat skills, and has been amplified beyond his "I can knock rogue out in 3 punches and beat down wonder woman in a slugfest" manifestation, on not one but 2 occasions.
iron fist just doesn't have what it takes to beat sabretooth anymore...

right now things are a bit ambiguous, sabretooth had his admantium before house of m but the new x-men issue show him to be sans admantium without much of an explaination as to what happened to it, if COULD be artist's interpretation but it might not be, it's a tough call.

Um... did you actually see the scans, book or panels?
Logan was NOT holding back. End of story. He fought the X-men for almost 10 pages. That isn't a quick fight, or something left open-ended for the readers interpretation.
Each time one came at him, he clobbered them.
EVERYTIME Logan came at him, WITH HIS CLAWS, he got his hairy arse handed to him.
And, my point about X-fans needing to read the scans, is because there was a time when all the hype, and super histories, and incredible feats were kept down to a tolerable level.
The X titles used to be a totally different animal. They were underdogs -ith mutant abilites. They weren't God-like, as they are written now.
Part of the coolness that went with reading their books, came from actually worrying about them. They were vulnerable. They used to win by being a team.
Now, all the X-men sit around playing cards, and joking about who beat Hulk, or Wendigo or the Silver Surfer the fastest!
Terrible.
There was a time when the characters were well written. The writers didn't just chalk up a win to an instant increase in power. They relied on skill and story and characters and creativity.
Daredevil once beat the Avengers, with SKILL.
Iron Fist was beating the X-Men with SKILL.
Yukio's old father beat Logan almost to death with SKILL and a wooden sword!
Drax and Captain Marvell were threats to Thanos, and they had class 40 strength!

Comics are like an RPG. When they start, you worry about fighting the kobold in the corner... and the first time you cast a summon spell you gasp at the CGI. Once you hit level 25, you hit that stride where you feel on top of the world. But when you hit levels 50+ even the toughest of monsters in the game have a tough time dealing with your relative power set. That's whats happened to comics, the characters have gotten so powerful over time, that now its pretty much all that matters. Strategy and skill got tossed out the window (unless you're Captain America or Batman I guess...)

And yah... someone was saying that the black panther comics are not cannon, the ones with bp beating up current sabretooth. Can someone explain why? I thought the bp comic involving that was cannon. So I may be misinformed as I have only read that one, and the one where mephisto got beat up. Are both of those noncannnon?

bigbran
I'm trying to grasp that as well.
Didn't it happen in Cival War (the BP pawning Sabes)?

Logan was NOT holding back. End of story. no it's not the end of the story... logan was sitting there letting danny punch him in the face talking about how he was wasting his time.. wolverine who's even only half not holding back doesn't have the capacity to smile, nor make human conversation (like he was doing) he was clearly holding back in that fight... case in point:
iron fist has had 2 chances to prove himself against spiderman, and failed utterly both times, once was even with prep....
wolverine's koed spidey and proven superior to him on a number of occasions.

IF and shang chi are argueably equals in skill wolverine punked him out in 2 pages without trying.

IF had problems with a human sabretooth, wolverine's taken out the enhanced admantiumized version WITHOUT A DAMNED healing factor.

IF got absolutely WRECKED in "fist of the kun lun", wolverine ended up nearly killing the guy that did it.

wolverine was clearly holding back, you can't deny that unless you know jack shit about wolverine and what he's really like.

We must not be reading the same books. Logan kept saying he was gonna cut Danny to pieces, and he kept going for him with his claws. I think you are seeing him get hit in the face, and telling yourself that he must be letting IF do it. There is no evidence of it, and no statements saying it. When somebody uses that arguement, they usually have a statement or some evidence to prove it. They don't just blurt out "He is letting him do it!" like some kind of Terets-Stricken-loon!
Logan smiling? Evidence? Dude, back then, Logan was always smiling during fights, and was written to be totally insane, not like how they write him today as the "Brooding Hero".
No evidence? It didn't happen. Period.
I also did not see an "Utter Failure" in the Spiderman Fight.
I have sen Logan KO Spidey, but not prove superior on a number of occassions. Again, I don't know what you are referring to. I have seen Spidey handle Logan on a number of occassions.
Wolverine beating shang chi, human sabretooth, and enhanced admantiumized version WITHOUT A DAMNED healing factor.
Don't care. Logan is a garbage character.
"wolverine was clearly holding back, you can't deny that unless you know jack shit about wolverine and what he's really like."
I have been reading Logan since he first showed up on the scene. But, thanks for sounding like a big ass. "
"so basically your upset that the x-men are doing now what older characters were doing comparatively in the past... pfffft... "
I'm saying that not every character should be writtent to be an instant winner. That is sucky writing, and it makes it hard to actually worry about the characters. The X-men were writtent o be underdogs that you rooted for. Not a bunch of "Omega/Gods".
The Old Man Cheated and used Poison? Wow! Against the guy that, now, can take hits from Cosmic Class characters, be disintegrated and "Heal" HAhahaha!, and is constantly described as being immune to ALL Toxins? Whatever.

they don't have to blurt it out, they're giving the reader the benefit of the doubt to piece it together on their own, considering, oh i dunno.. ALL of the characters' other showings. logan saying he's going to cut someone doesn't imply he's using even 10 percent of his skill, speed or power.. he's sliced people up while doing the tango... LITERALLY.. saying he's going to cut danny to peices doesn't imply he wasn't holding back...
and yes smiling is a huge that he was taking that fight lightly.... you ever see what happens when wolverine actually gets mad?
when he can't hear the sounds of other human voices over his own howling? when his mind recedes to that of a killer berserker ape while fully capible of making complex battle strategies? he doesn't smile, he doesn't sit there talking to his opponent telling them they're wasting their time.
