Wolverine has pressure point koed Rogue, completely destroyed Rock of the Buddha with a pressure point and gave Captain America a near fatal aneurysm with a pressure point. Few MA's have displayed effective pressure point usage to one shot someone with durability as high as Rogue and even fewer have been able to proven those abilities viable in combat with someone as skilled as Cap.
Even baring pressure points as a legitimate option Wolverine would simply out last Cage 10/10. People vastly underestimate the value of endurance. Wolverine will set the pace of the fight, and Cage won't be able to keep up. There is no conceivable way Cage can conserve enough energy to content with Wolverine for any significant amount of time. After 10 minutes of fending off Wolverine's ferociousness Luke is going to be sapped, after 20 minutes he will be comatose... and Wolverine will be fresh as a daisy. His durability is irrelevant, Cage just doesn't have the athleticism or endurance to compete.

It's true, Wolverine had to fight Omega Red after just waking up from being drugged, and he still fought Red for like 20+ hours. It was X-men#4 or #5. Omega Red's 1st appearance. I could be off on the hours, but it was a crazy amount.
I am aware that Wolverine fought Omega Red for an extended period of time.
I am also aware that feat notwithstanding, Wolverine can still get ktfo. So saying that Wolverine's endurance determines this battle completely 10/10 is too hasty... and -worthy
He last around 18 hours of none stop combat against a guy who has pheramones that drain his healing factor, and who has far greater range, speed, reflexes, strength then Luke.
No Luke who can't even fight 18 hours straight is gunna knock him out the majority? I don't think so.

You ever see one of those MA gauntlets where they fight 10 guys one after another for 15 seconds each? That is only 2 and a half minutes and even then the fighter is completely drained by the tenth guy. The idea that Luke Cage could content with Wolverine's stamina and endurance is insane. Even if Luke had 10x human stamina - which he doesn't - he still wouldn't be able to content with Wolverine's pace in a fight. I really don't think people understand just how much of an advantage endurance can be.

in my military combat training grappling we called it bull rushing.. i took down 4 in a fast pace gauntlet b4 i was trained lasted about 3 minutes tops.. lifting, twisting and escaping drained me especially moving in beach sand in boots.
Even before the poisoned took affect it was DD's plan to out last Luke. When Cage started showing signs of fatigue DD even said "no surprise there" or something... and then he noticed that Cage was a little too tired.
