Batman might not be able to beat Castle in a straight up h2h fight. And I don't recall much of his gadgets that will give him the edge over Castle's guns and sharpshooting.
That bulletptoof costume though, that might just win it for him.
Castle has insane damage soak showings and decent h2h skill but this isn't some random thug it's the phucking Batman. He did casually what the Punisher almost died trying in his own series in taking down dozens of guys solo.
Didn't Batman have armor and gear when he beat down those guys, as opposed to the Punisher who went into the fight with no armor or weapons?

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
Batman wins in spite of having no skill showings comparable to fighting on par with season 2 Daredevil and even though he cried after being stabbed meanwhile Frank can soak up a gunshot to the arm, multiple blows from Matts reinforced gloves/Billy clubs, and falls from buildings.

Well, I'd say Bruce is above Matt in some areas, but below him in others. For example, I would give Bruce the advantage in strength, but Matt the edge in nimbleness/acrobatics. At one point in Justice League, Batman sent a parademon flying back probably a good 15 feet with a side kick. But I don't see him being able to literally do an aerial somersault around machine gunfire, like Matt has done before.

he was pretty casually dodging gunfire on the Gotham rooftop at the beginning of JL and he also dodged point black shotgun fire while scrambling on a ceiling at the beginning of BvS as well
