BA and Cap are entirely diffent creatures. BA is ruthless and a much better fighter than cap. And it doesn't matter if the forum agrees or not. There are many forums out there who think WW can beat Thor. So where this forum might NOT recognize WW for who she is, others do. I"m not going to die till you guys give her her credit. I just made a thread to be discussed. No one has really presented a valid reason why Cap would win over someone who is his equal in strength, and speed, and is a better fighter.

Stroner? Prove it. Faster? Prove it again. They draw from the same god for speed. Actually diana's god is the original. Cap's is a copy god. Smarter? The wisdom of solomon vs. the Wisdom of Athena? You might want to rethink that one. A little boy vs. someone who has been a goddess.

Has either of them ever Hurt Superman Like Diana has? Has either of them taken the kind of punishment from Superman that Diana has? What exactly puts them over her in a fight? Strength? So just how much stronger do you suppose they are than her? Considerable? How come batman has Diana and Superman rated the same in strength? Speed? Same thing. Now he did give Superman one up on Flight Speed, but not in physical Speed.
My mistake here. The post i wanted to answer was this one:
It has to do with your implication that since Diana had been given the speed of the "original" she was better than someone who had it from a "copycat".
The references belong to the "War of the Gods" series of Perez.

I have to pull out that Comic. it's buried somewhere. But I remember that even before she got her byrne massive power up, she was stalemating captain marvel back then. Am I correct in this?
I personally think WW would net most of the wins. They're even in strength, speed and durability (blunt-trama wise that is) but Diana has three major edges:
Skill. Batson fights like a brick. A child brick. The Wisdom of Solomon can't (no pun intended) match WW's pure MA skills. She's far more the tactician than Billy whose immaturity is a downside.
Magical resistance. They both have this trait. However Diana's rather immune to Billy's magical attacks. He can attack her with Zeus' lightening all he wants. Diana's withstood and buffered lightening from Zeus himself. No comparision. Cap's edge over Superman doesn't apply to WW.
Weapons. Diana carries several normally. The tiara won't be a major factor unless Diana manages to decaptitate him with it. The invisible plane will be useful for extra defense and invisibility. What really nets her the majority of the wins is her lasso. The Lasso of Truth reverts anything to it's true form and forces people to speak what she desires as long as it's truth.
A quick win for Diana is just to lasso his ass and make him speak the word "Shazam" and it's all over.
