Who wins?

Dum Dum Dugan
Mr. handily, I dont even think this be much of a fight.

Wolverine2006
Mr. X is an insane fighter, but what really irritates me is his cage fight with Taskmaster. Shouldn't his crazy abilities just make Tasky all the more better? I think Task should have won, and that it was CIS

King Castle
they dont know how to write certain characters with certain auto win powers so they jobb them in certain fights where the other would die..

h2h fights with guys like taskmaster, mr. x and daken should be an auto loss for the likes of peak and slightly superhuman guys who rely on melee fighting.

mr. X should win.

I think Task should have won, and that it was CIS i agree, tasky should rape him. while mr x is prepared for the next attack tasky does tasky is prepared for any and all that mr x does and should be able to read what hes doing just as well as if he had mr x's tp. not to mention the possibility of an overload considering all the incredibly detailed moves tasky should be considering at any given time during a fight

What issue did X fight Taskmaster in?

Wolverine2006
Wow haha. That is exactly what I was thinking, and I'm glad someone else out there agrees that the fight was BS. Taskmaster should've definitely won that fight soley based on his ability to copy fighting styles, and knowing exactly how Mr. X fights, and that's not even mentioning his ability to fight superhumanly fast for short amounts of time.

I'm not sure, but I think that it's in the Mr. X respect thread.

King Castle
he fought him in the wolverine comic in the bloodsport tournament.. it was x second story appearance.

X manhandled taskmaster and beat him.. he nearly killed taskmaster had the ref not interfered

Oh really? I couldn't find it on the Marvel Respect List, so I searched Mr. X, and couldn't find it either. KMC should have a better search system. Can you post the link please?

Captain America f*cking destroys this punk. For some reason I expect to see Captain America own Mr. X some time soon.

Why does Mr. X constantly keep telling all his opponents how his abilities work? I wouldn't be surprised if it's common knowledge at this point actually. Captain America sings the National Anthem in his enhanced brain while beating Mr. X's head in.

thats rather rediculous statements seeing as how Capt shown almost zero skill with a sword and Mr.X is easily one of the most skilled in the world.


He told his teamates that about it, it sorta told wolverine.



That wouldent work at all, Wolverine brain is every bit as enhanced as Capts and X had zero trouble reading him and Wolverine mental defenses are far more and greater then Capt.

King Castle
it shouldnt work but seeing how marvel now writes sh$# i wouldnt be surprised if thats how it turned out in a fight against cap.

Really? Damn. I was sure he faced Swordsman or one opponent wielding a blade. Okay. Cap tosses his word and beats his face in.

I'm pretty sure he told a told a great of his opponents since he came back into the fold.

Iron Fist, and Cho used their abilities to render Mr. X useless. Wolverine having a shitty track record against him isn't my fault.

Mr. X would be one of those henchmen villains Cap owns to get to the true bad guy unless Tieri is writing it.

King Castle
cap would have an even worse time against X.. look at how he has strugled with taskmaster in the past and yes i am counting the powerpack story..uggh

Lord_Talron
tasky should be way better than x

Juk3n
Lot of idiotic chat here, and this fight is stupid when dealing with a non-PIS situation. No street leveller (and i use the term lightly when dealing with Cap) should beat X without an outside force or counter ability - Elektra with her tp for instance, or Ironfist with some Chi-manipulation.

To suggest otherwise is counter to his powerset , which is the exact powerset of a character who cannot be beaten by ANYONE who is a match for him in physicality. It doesn't matter how many styles taskmaster knows, X ability is tht his mind AUTO-locks on to ANY brain impulses of his opponent and his body automatically responds. Why should it matter of Taskmaster is fighting like Daredevil/then switch to Blade/Then switch to Elektra/then switch to Panther...does his brain function change? No. Is he still consciously throwing punches and kicks tryng to defeat his opponent? Yes. If he's not using his "double time speed" (and even if he is considering X's true bullet time reflexes) should he be able to hit X on a forum? No.

Cap loses here, he can't win especially in a sword duel. And i challenge someone to comeup with a suitable winning scenerio for Cap that doesn't involve ignoring X's abilities - as has sometimes been done by stupid writing in comics.

To clarify. X cannot lose against the following in a MELEE encounter;

Batman
Nightwing
Shiva
Daredevil
Punisher
Blade
Taskmaster
Cap

and anyone considered on this level that does not have alternate offensive output or defenses tp or chi-manip that X cannot counter ie; Elektra, Shang-Chi, Ironfist or Wolverine.

King Castle
pffff. chi shouldnt work period... nor drunken style..

depends on th chi, X can block Ironfists Ampe blow right? well it's Ironnfst so whats the use him blockin if he loses an arm in the process? Shang-Chi and Elektra can project chi attacks, can't block them. X' ability isa counter to physical confrontations not meta physical. Drunken style definetley shouldn't have worked, thats PIS at it's very worst. The Woverine berserk thing i can hang with, because it's an altered mind state and altered brainwave patterns. But simply changing a fighting style should have no effect on X's ability.

Lord_Talron
taskmaster is running thru over a million different moves that he could use, analyzing the fighting style his opponent is using, and copying that (if he doesnt have it). thats in addition to normal fighting stuff. i think its possible for the correct information to get lost in transition or an information overload on x's part

Juk3n
X's own style is rooted in his very own specific brain function, it doesn' matter if taskmater can copy X's moves, he can't copy his brain, and there is no reasn for taskmaster to land a hit on X. He isnt vastly superior in any particular catagory and at the end of the day, if taskmaster i consciously throwin punches and kick (as opposed to the auto pilot way berserker Wolverine would fight -- ) then X is blocking or parrying everything. X's body reacts automtically granting him forehand knowledge of the impending attack and the location grantin him extremeley favourable counter attack options.

Only someone who operates faster than X's body can react should really have a chance at bypassing his autopilot. Cap and Taskmaster lack this operating speed to an effectve degree.

I would think that their abilities would cancel eachother's out, because Mr. X has the tp, and because Tasky would know every move that Mr. X could throw to counter it. But I still say that Taskmaster should still win.

namorsubby
I X's precog can allow him to outmanuever Wolverine every steo of the way, then it should probably allow him to easily outmanuevering Captain America.

Steve does have the shield, but he gonna miss alot, and he's gonna get tagged too.

Not canon.

Actually, the last fight was Tasky fighting both Caps at the same time during Siege...

Anyway X wins this.
And while Tasky should probably have done a little better against X, he can't beat X whilst X's powers still operate fully, as he can't counter telepathy. The same reason Wolverine couldn't gain an advantage no matter how he fought.

At what point did it look like Bucky had the advantage? When he tried to attack Tasky from behind as Task was talking to Cap as he left?

Tbf, I wish the fight was longer, but Gage had a lot to cover in that issue and it was a nice fight for what it was.

Not Bucky, Steve. Taskmaster was on his knees after getting kneed by Cap. It was an impressive showing but doesn't prove he can beat Cap in h2h.

Cho moves was legitment. But Capt has no prayer of pulling that off becuase he does not percieve the world anything like cho does.

Capt is not the best fighter in Marvel, not sure were you got that little fact from, but it far from correct there a numerous fighters as good and better then he is.

X has shown just what he can do to elite MA. He clearly on there level in skill and hgis powers make him quite beyond.

hes not the best martial artist, but he is the best raw fighter. he can adapt on the fly to the environment. Cap is also very smart, smarter than X. Also X is a cocky idiot, Cap will exploit that.

How is he smarter then X? There really no evidences of this and this is quite speculation on your part. how does X exploit this when his opponents body reacts to his everymove and is far better at using the weapons that there fighting with then he is?

For starters Wolverine has beaten Capt in a fight not an MA match, so has DD amoung others. He not that best, he simply one of them.

Wolverine and Capt do tend to uses far more simplistic assaults that soldiers and trained killers might uses rather then say some fancy kungfu move from shang-chi. However that does not make them a better fighter or him a better MAer. Think people misunderstand MA and few it only in contect of flashy moves for sport.

you think there a differences, but there really is not. Your either a better fighter or your not.

One cant really be the better MerA but worse fighter. some one can be better at a certain MA then another but overall inferior in all around combat.

becuase many MA's like krav Maga ius fighting system develope upon killing your enemy or disabling him by any mean nessary.

Captain America does have an enhanced mind that processes information more efficiently, specifically when it comes to combat but I doubt that his mind would shown as being too foreign for Mr. X to understand. He was able to read Wolverine. I'll give the guy some credit.

It'd be funny to see to Batroc the Leaper own Mr. X however. His thoughts are in French!

He fought chumps man he was fed. He started losing because he started fighting legit guys, hell his first loss was to a no body. This is prior to him going nuts.


foreman is the much more accomplished bozer. Tyson ranked something like 16 overall greatest heavy weights. People like foreman is rank 7th.

there a reason foreman fought the best of the best.

Tyson was fighting chumps becuase during his riegn boxing had splinter and became so corrupted that they would protect there fighters like tyson.

For the record if you look at some martial arts films oriental martial artists study boxing to gain an advantage because it has much more flexibility look at Fist of Legend and Way Of The Dragon (not sure, the film where Bruce Lee fights Chuck Norris). Also Bruce Lee studied boxing. Boxing isn't like Karate but I see no reason why it can't be considered to be a martial art.

Captain America does have an enhanced mind that processes information more efficiently, specifically when it comes to combat but I doubt that his mind would shown as being too foreign for Mr. X to understand. He was able to read Wolverine. I'll give the guy some credit.

and taskmaster who mind is also enhanced.

lol I wonder how that would work, it be a funny read. Though X is fluent in many language I believe, not sure about french.

Yes, I know this. Tieri's more than likely the only one who cares about Mr. X in his line of work.
writer of thunderbolts seemed to like him.

I liked him, he had possibilities but they just sent him right back to the celler after thunderbolts ended

I'll take issue with that list. Iron Mike at his peak was a monster, perhaps -IMO -the greatest boxer who ever lived... and he never even approached is full potential. After Cus D'Amato died Tyson wasn't even close to the same boxer. His training slacked and he stopped fighting seriously.

When he was at his best Tyson was one of the greats... suggestion otherwise is crazy. Peak Tyson would mangle pretty much everyone on that list.

he was good one of the best heavy weights but there are many beyond him. He could beat some of them but thats means little, many of them are weight classes below him and would simply loses due to inferior size.

george foreman for one would eat tyson alive.

You should go take a look at there records. Foreman is better clearly and he fought much better guys. Hell in his forties he did better against holyfield then tyson did who got two shots at him.

Yeah of course George Foreman is better but I don't think it would be a total stomp. Yeah you might be right actually.

I think tyson would last a bit but would be clearly losing every round untill he was stop in 3rd or fourth though maybe sooner, tyson had some what suspect chin.

Some of his opponents had files on him thats why.

Haha, okay fine. I'll stop. Damn, I didn't know you felt so strongly about it.

I think Cho had files on him. Besides, Captain America is the head of S.H.I.E.L.D. so I think they're is a good possibility he'd know of Mr. X's abilities. Not sure if they fall into the general knowledge category.

I'm assuming this was used to counter Wolverine's rage? I didn't bother to reading their most recent fight. I started too, but it got boring so I stopped.

I'm not too sure I'd but Taskmaster in the same boat as Rogers. His powers were explained as photographic memory tying directly into muscle memory as I recall. That's a bit different from Rogers who had his brain speed up, evolved in regards to combat specifically. Of course I might be forgetting a description of Taskmaster's powers that compare them to Rogers.

He'd probably get his shit pushed in once his telepathy is overcome. He seems to fold when it's been countered.

Nah, at his peak Tyson was destroy him. Mike was too fast, too powerful and just as good with his left and his right hand. The only thing Foreman had over Tyson was heart, but that isn't enough for a win.

Before his trainer / father figure died, Tyson was one of the greats... I know that is easy to forget. Try to disregard the "fighter" Tyson devolved into and remember him at his best.

Taskmaster mind would need to be enhanced to accomnplish such feats. espcially ones like increasing his speed to level capable of catching bullets which his mind would need to beable to percieve. Though it may not be on capts level it most certain enhanced I believe.

it hard to say both times it shocked him, he dident expect it. However he showed the he evolves such as when ghost tried to sneak up on him again x was able to senses it. He was also able to combat when Nuke was able to by pass his abilities. also how would capt bypass them?

I have and I think that you, like Battlehammer bringing Tyson v Holyfield up, can't separate the fighter Tyson was from the fighter he became. As soon as the work "peak" comes into the equation all that BS that Tyson's career became is irrelevant. Starscream said Tyson in his prime and he was right.

no no he would not. except tyson wasent faster then foreman at all. Foreman was pretty much as powerful as tyson and has vastly better chin and was more skilled. Put foreman and tyson record side by side. foreman in his prime was better had more wins by TKO and KO and fought vastly superior people. Tyson fought mostly chumps.


yea and foreman came back in his friggin forties overweight, that tyson excuses is lame, evenb looking purely at there primes Foreman record is simply better it not even debatable. Hell even ring magazine rates Foreman at number 7 while Tyson does not even make top 15.

I not even talking about that. Tyson in his prime lost to James Douglas by KO who was a no body, this is the crap im talking about Tyson was fed and he stuill got his shit kicked in. Tyson won 37 fights in a row and lost to a chump.

Foreman won 40 fights ibn a row and lost to the best heavy weight to ever live (who cheat by today standards to win if not mistaken)

He also spent his entire carreer as a pro pritty much with out his original trainer who died the same year he turned pro.

That was most certainly his prime, he was only 24 for christ sakes.

I can't believe you just said that Tyson wasn't faster than Foreman lmao. Foreman was had slow hand speed, he just hit like a freaking pile driver and walk you around the ring with his monsterous right. Tyson had comparable punching power, far greater speed, unlike Foreman he was just as devastating with his left as his right, and when he was actually trying to box he was a master of the Peek-a-boo style (instead of just letting people punch him in the head like he did latter one), he had superior technique (Foreman was a brawler). I'll give you that Foreman fought better boxers than the boxers Tyson fought, but he didn't fight better boxers than prime Tyson.

Of course not. Tyson was a joke under Don King, and DK didn't want take the risk of Tyson losing to Foreman... but luckily that isn't the Tyson we are talking about. cool

It's not a lame excuse, it's the reality of the situation. When Don King picked up his contract, Tyson stopped boxing like he used too. He stopped using the style and technique he had developed, and excelled at, he stopped training hard and fighting seriously... he basically tried to tank punches to the face and hope for the best. He was only the same fighter in name and nothing else.
