How can you honestly sit there and tell everyone that adamantium is known to be the STRONGEST METAL IN ALL THE COMIC UNIVERSE. Please, pleeease give me some evidence here. Screw evidence even, there is no argument here. How can you even say that? The universe (both real and comic-wise) is ginormous. Why the hell would the universe's strongest known metal be found on Earth? It wouldn't. Just because Earth sucks like that in comparison to all the other places in the galaxy. Obviously it can't be all-powerful, since we see Wolvie's left hand missing from the AoA series. Unless of course he decided he just didn't like his left hand anymore and cut it off, it's safe to assume that it was cut off. So obviously it can be cut.
Plus, especially in this argument, Wolvie has never met a Predator. And vice versa. You have no comparison to say who's metal is stronger.
And if one more person says his fighting experience/and every phyiscal aspect is superior to Predator's...I don't know what I'll do. Probably just groan very loudly at the people who don't realize what Predators do for a living.
I feel like I need to repost this exact message from the "Wolverine vs. Predator" thread. There is a difference. Note the period after "vs".
I wish more people would vote for Wolverine who don't have his name in their screen name.
Anyway. I think you all are giving WAY too much credit to Wolverine's healing factor. Yes, I know it is great. I have A VAST NUMBER of X-men comics and a large majority of those involve Wolvie healing himself. Yes, he can do it, I know.
But you seem to increase the speed at which he heals with every single post that you make (I'm directing this towards anyone in general, just people who said this). Hell, I'll even make a movie reference just to help. Wolverine got shot in the head. Did he die? No. Was he knocked out for about five minutes? Yes. And that was just one bullet to the forehead. The Predator can do so much more damage than that bullet ever could.
And burning. Burning seems to take Wolvie the longest to recuperate from. And guess what Super-heated plasma does? It burns. And that, frankly, is an understatement. Plasma disintergrates basically. Wolvie's adamantium skeleton can withstand it all he likes. I'm not arguing that. I am, however, arguing that Wolvie's skeleton can not regenerate Wolverine himself. If Wolvie is burnt to nothing but his skeleton, he loses. And shots to vital organs also take longer for Wolverine to heal, so if Predator decided to aim for certain areas, like the lungs, the intestines, etc., Wolverine would have some mad amount of pain on his hands. Yes, Wolvie does feel pain, which has shown to slow him down and make him much more succeptable to attacks. It has happened.
Predator, in fact, has every advantage in this fight. Wolverine really doesn't stand a chance. And this is coming from a die-hard X-men fan. Facts are facts.
The only way that Wolverine could win, is if Predator decided to take a break to let Wolverine heal. Pred would pick up the morning paper and his coffee and just relax for awhile, catching up on the latest stock recaps. It is in this time that Wolvie could possibly stab him through the head, but that is ONLY if Pred is preoccupied with the comics.

I think Thor dented Cap's shield too. And Thanos destroyed Cap's shield. Magneto destablized adamantium.
Also, I drew a comic for one venue of attack for a predator
I hate the arguements about preds losing to the main characters. Though I guess I could use the arguement that the first predator was obviously very arrogant. It hunted alone and when surprised it just shot the hell out of everything. I can also say that the predator in the second movie was clearly much younger and inexperienced. Also danny got lucky that he managed to hit the low end plasma castor it was carrying or else he would have been toast.
Keep in mind even an inexperienced Pred is very tough. It managed to wipe the floor with Keyes entire team and several groups of well armed gang members up close and personal with many of the killings done with stabbing weapons.
If we want to talk uber-tough though I don't know if Dachande has been brought up yet. A clan leader and one of the best Predators that ever lived. This guy was known as Broken Tusk. The only predator to ever take an alien with his bare hands. This guy routinely tooled several aliens at a time with just a spear and his wristblades. He killed a second alien with his barehands in the story by shoving his hand in its mouth and ripping its throat out.
These things live for centuries maybe more. The older the tougher to have survived such a rough society. All they do is fight it out with eachother, train, and hunt. Their entire lifestyle is based on an honor system that is based around the hunt.
I love wolvie but he's just not coming out of this one. If the pred in question is well trained its just too damn tough for wolvie. Back when I used to play Avp2 online I routinely challenged anyone playing as a queen with a spear and won most of the time too. Sure its a game but the point is the predator's abilities aren't anything to put down. It has a 20-30 foot vertical jump and very resistant to injury.
