Who would win between these two heroes. This fight is just h2h combat with no gadgets, suits etc. Right now I'm undecided.

TheEvilHex
Bruce Wayne

Loot

Stupid Rookie
I vote Bruce in this one.

Badabing
I'm voting Bruce Wayne on this.

Priest
T'Challa

YFZ 350
I was leaning towards Bruce Wayne also. He seems to display better fighting skill.

don't shiv
Wayne hits harder

Metalmanx
T'Challa. No doubts.

StarsNeverFall7
Wayne easily.

T'Challa is good, but he still falls behind some of the better fighters in the MU who still fall behind Bruce.

TricksterPriest
What the f**k? T'challa can beat Cap? No way man. I'm not buying that. Maybe sometimes, but not often. Bruce has far more H2H feats, I'm giving him the nod.

Bruce has been trained since his parents died to.plus he's been in the business wayyy longer than T'Challa at least when it comes to fighting bad guys. he has at least 13 years of experience.

TricksterPriest
I'd like to T'challa go up against the likes of Lady Shiva, Prometheus, Shang-Chi, etc. stick out tongue

Only if Hudlin's writing.

ummm, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the herb thing that T'challa eat give him things like enhanced reflexes and all that jazz?

Bats is probably the better fighter, but if T'challa has a speed/strength/endurence/reflex advantage it might even it out a little bit

LORDSIDIOUS01
This is so easy. Bruce Wayne takes him out.

T'challa kicks his arse, hard. reason why Inamilist has already stated, the herb boost him up like a mother clucker.

The master technician and tactician in a straight up hand to hand fight loses to a BETTER technician and tactician in my opinion. Bruce goes down alot harder, increased senses take it really. if we had T'challa without the herb it would be alot better.

TricksterPriest
Actually, the herb doesn't make as much difference as you think. In a jungle, Bruce would be ****ed. But in a straight fight in the open, Bats has the edge. T'challa's around peak human, not above. Unless someone has feats to prove otherwise? Marvel database says he's capable of 750 lbs at peak effort. That's around peak human. 800 lbs is the most someone can lift in Marvel without being called Superhuman.

Calling Danny Rand an amateur while schooling him hand to hand, for example.

Blame it on popularity if you really like, but fact of the matter is that no matter how you think the characters SHOULD be portrayed, Marvel has consistently portrayed Captain America as the foremost hand to hand combatant on Earth.

Not to mention the fact that Cap's strength feats are more numerous and impressive than T'Challa's.

have this two ever fought?

and about the age thing, i think its important, if T´Challa by the age of six says he´s mastered some form of combat

Superherovandal
he may be faster but he's been given somewhat of a wallop before. White Wolf was beating him up and even though bp did a nerve pinch on him white wolf was fairly close to beating him and white wolf isn't even as skilled as bats or nearly as smart.

Cool. Let's go ahead and say that T'Challa has mastered one form of combat for every six years he's lived. How many styles would he know?

Batman's mastered one hundred twenty seven.

He makes a living beating on people that have mastered every martial art known to man. T'Challa is nothing new.

Going by feats, and feats alone, Batman wins this for a good majority.

Same thing goes for you though.

Just because Bruce can defeat most if not all of the martial artists in his universe, doesnt gurantee can defeat all of Marvels.

Bruce is not the top notch hand to hand fighter in the DCU, dont pump him more than he deserves.

I think Bruce Wayne is going to win the fight but, how ever
not an easy fight!

TricksterPriest
With regards to Bruce's skills, he's in contention for the #1 spot along with a few others. Lady Shiva and the new batgirl, her daugther Cassanda Cain, are at the top of the list right now. And yes, Batgirl can beat Batman at this point. Not easily, but it is possible. Anyway, I don't T'challa walking away with the wins here.

I wasn't implying that. I was just saying that Bruce's feats are no less credible simply because they happened in the DC universe.

Never said he wasnt in the same tier as them, but Tiger beat him straight up the first time didnt he? Batman stale-mating that one because he'd prepped accordingly. Dragon taught him, I reckon they're about equal though.

And if Batman was clear-minded and Cassie was blood-lusted thats hardly a fair fight is it? All of this is dreadfully random though. I still go for T'Challa to be honest.

EDIT- i'll admit Bruce has him in h2h skill, but I just reckon the sensory advantage swings it for him just barely.

Exactly what I was going to say.

Thanks to the heart herb, T'challa by far has the physical edge, and nearly (if not definitley) matches Bruce in skill.

T'challa takes this.

snoopdogg
Bruce is usually thought to be in the top level or martial artists in the DCU. T'Challa usually is not even considered to be in the top tier of MU's martial artists.

Bruce is everybit as strong and as durable or even as fast at T'Challa is. Bruce does it naturally to where T'Challa uses the herb to get there. Physically they are pretty equal but Bruce has the better skill.

The physical edge? Are you sure? Batman easily has speed and strength feats to match T'Challa's regardless of the herb.

In a battle where it comes down to skills? Batman.

Also T'Challa did not defeat Captain America to my knowledge. His father beat a young Cap (before Cap went through any MA training, etc) after a long fight, though when Hudlin stated that, he obviously had no idea that Cap was shipped out right after Operation: Rebirth.

Aye, I believe I mentioned that clarification.

T'Chaka beat a VERY inexperienced Steve Rogers, but T'Challa has never beaten the Cap we all know and love.

I nearly shat myself. Batman SHOULDN'T be that strong, even in a comic book world. He is WAY too lithe to also be twice as strong as the strongest human in the real world!

One of the plates on the barebell reads 500 lbs (it's hard to read in the scan, but is more visible in the actual panel). There is an even larger plate BEHIND that one, and some smaller ones in front.

Being conservative, and saying that the larger plate BEHIND the five hundred pound one was also only five hundred pounds, that'd be a thousand on each side of the bar. Two thousand pounds. Plus the smaller weights, plus the bar itself.

Well over one ton. Insane! eek! eek! eek!

It's arguable whether Cap pressed 1100 or 2200.

Soljer

Yes. It is unclear whether the electric dials are for each plate, or for the entire bar.

Both have been argued. Both are sensical. It's up to each individual to decide for themselves.

Yes, but these were hardly 'normal weights.'

They were electronically calibrated. Who knows if they worked on some sort of magnetic or gravitonic system. Who knows if you could have even taken the individual plates off or not? If not, it would make sense for each side to display the amount of total weight, rather than half of the total weight.

In this case, it would be the difference between class 1 and class .5.

stick out tongue.

If the electronic weights are anything in comparision to what Reed often builds for the Ben, it would for a whole, weird gravity based things...

Not that it really makes any difference...Bruce is still going to put the beating on T'Challa

Exactly. However, since we do not know one way or the other, the feat is ambiguous.

It can, very easily, be argued either way. 1100, 2200, doesn't matter.

It's hardly Cap's best strength feat either way.

Oh, and Bruce still puts T'Challa down.

The Fake Macoy
Out of all the BP feats I've seen, none of them really give me the impression that in straight H2H, he could beat Batman. Batman wins this.

I used to have herbs all the time shifty.

Doesn't mean I would have beaten Batman.
