Captain America would win this one, but it would be a helluva battle. These two have a begrudging respect for one another, and have tangled on numerous occasions. If they both went all out, I think Cap's slightly superior fighting ability, calmer approach to the fight, and his ability to gauge the strengths and weaknesses of his opponent and use them to his advantage would win in the end.
But I take nothing from Wolverine. This would be one fight that would definitely send Cap to the infirmary when it was all over.
i agree with capjk on this one......the cap just isn't one of those characters that would lose to wolverine, but he'd definitely be hurtin afterwards.
Although, if wolverine was to be in his "death mode" (during the best there is story arch) I might be inclined to think that he'd probably trounce cap, cap blocks one punch with sheild high, gets gutted low for his troubles. But wolverine doesn't fight in that mandset all the time, so for the majority of the fights i give this to the cap.
Their physical skills are both equals.Logan exceed Cap only in the experience sector and in in the healing factor and senses repart.
But Cap's shield can withstand with Logan's claws and give him the range advantage, but against Logan it doesn't mean victory, also because he can catch the shield in mid air or stop him.A fist to fist fight will grant Logan the chance to stab to death Cap, but after all Steve Rogers is not one of Earth greatest combatant for nothing, he can manage to stay fist to fist with Logan even without the shield.It's hard to say who would win.It maybe a draw, with Cap finally knocking Logan unconscious and falling down for the injuries reported in the battle, or a victory for one of the two.Logan kill when it's necessary, Cap too, but he's too much boyscout for doing it.It's too close to say.Maybe the healing factory would be the key factor for Logan taking this.
There fighting skills are practically equal and Cap's slight strength advantage is nothing considering Wolverine has a body full of metal his hits will be doing more damage then Cap's will any way. With out a healing factor this fight would split 50/50. With Logan's healing factor what can Cap do to put Wolverine down when the are so close to being equal? Captain America will win in a comic but anyone who knows anything about either character should see the flaws in that.
EDIT: Someone said that if Wolverine took Cap's shield he wouldn't have the skill to use it and this isn't true. Wolverine has shown he can use a sewer lid to mimick Captain America's shield throughing and he also can mimik Captian America's fighting style. I forget the issue but it is pretty good Wolverine also shows he can be as agile as Beast when needed.
yeah wolverine should be able to pull out a victory, but against that cap? no way, U.S. agent he would kill very easily,
but cap could take down wolvie with nerve pinches, pressure points, slinging his sheild at wolverine's nerve clusters etc.... I understand your arguement, but in comic book land cap ain't goin down.
Agree Cap probably has a better fighting style even though Wolvie has been in more fights and therefore more experienced. Strength wise is almost a toss up, edge to Cap. Cap would probably rock Wolvie for 3-4 hits for every 1 hit from Wolvie. However, this is where everyone has the think. Wolvie will keep getting up due to his regen and just 1 of Wolvie's hits with his claws through Cap's chest will end the American hero. Its just a matter of when..
Wolvie wins
