It is NOT his opinion. It is the truth.

Karate Kid is beyond each and every person on both Marvel and DC who is human.
On a scale of 1-10 in fighting ability, with people like Shiva having a 10, Karate Kid had a 15!
While Batman knows all 127 major martial arts in the world, Karate Kid knows many intergalactic (yes, according to DC) martial systems.
Karate Kid beat pre-crisis SuperBoy.

Let me put it this way, there was a reason i did not include Karate Kid when i was compiling some of the DC human fighters. The reason i did so was because Karate Kid is unbeatable by anyone without Superman/Hulk class strength, or amazing psychic abilities (that can penetrate his powerful mind).
No one in DC/Marvel, in this list, can even be a threat to KK.

Not Shang-Chi, not Shiva, not Richard Dragon.
And not Batman.

DC made Karate Kid to be to the martial arts what PRe-Crisis Superman was to superheroes.
Beyond all comparison.

Any person who knows comics, and knows the various characters well, would tell you that based on the names put in both Marvel and DC that no one (and i mean no one) comes even close to Karate Kid.
Shang Chi is arguably the best in Marvel, and Shiva, Cassandra and R.Dragon scoop the NORMAL cream in DC, but Karate Kid is the number one martial artist in DC. And the reason why i said Shiva, Cass and Dragon scoop the NORMAL cream is because KK has progressed so far that he is no longer anything close to normal.

There is a reason why even Wizard has martial competitions being between Shang Chi and Richard Dragon or Shiva. Because having Shang Chi trying to fight DC's Karate Kid would lead to a win by KK in less than half a second.
KK is beyond anyone and everyone on the compiled list.

All right!!! The tournament has started!!!

Uh.. Its not the truth because they have never fought, so you don't have the hard facts that he has beaten him in the past to tell you if he will beat him. Thats the whole point of these threads. Express your opinion. Your opinion is that karate kid will win. Mine is that Batman will win. Get over it.

Sounds fair. Out of curiousity, what's that opinion based on?

What do you think. What would an opinion.. in a comic book versus forum... be based on? Use your noggin'. It helps.

Opinions are based on lots of things. It doesn't matter what the forum is. What's YOUR opinion based on? If you don't feel comfortable answering, I'll understand. But I'm curious. This isn't a trick question or anything, lol.

Well, first it was because I felt that Batman was more resourceful, and seems to have something... extra. I think he'd find some flaw in KK, and use that to defeat him. Right now though, I am not voting, because I feel my opinion is being biased, because right now, I have a burning desire to vote against KK, because you two were giving me attitude.

But do please vote eventually 🙂

You're hypersensitive. I haven't given you a lick of attitude. I was just curious, and now I know. Case closed. Try some breathing exercises...

First of all, I wasn't talking about you. Second of all I apologize for being moody, but I'm rushing my 4th dress, because the pleats are all f*cked up, and I still have one more dress to do.

ok no problem! 🙂

Just have fun with this, I didn't mean for it to cause problems

Yeah, I can definitely tell no matter how clear I tried to be some fans still just don't get the rules of this tournament.
