Unless he had some sort of machine that monitors Kurt's movements in the dimension he goes to when he teleports; but i'm fairly positive Batman doesn't carry one of those around in his utility belt.

No one has validly countered most of my arguments so I'm reposting them.
First off this is a no prep scenario. Batman cannot runaway from the fight (I'd say that would qualify as a ringout) to a lab (in which he would do what? Bruce Wayne is not Forge/Reed Richards/Victor von Doom/Henry Pym etc at best he applies/installs tech from Wayne Enterprises.) Since it isn’t stated that either opponent knows knowledge of the other I think we assume that only public knowledge is known.
Batman vs…
DD
I agree with high intensity sonic weapons Batman takes him down.
Wolverine
Disagree. Both are overrated. Though I agree that overwhelming Logan's senses is a good plan Batman cannot take off for a few hours, see above. He can't take on Logan without prep, therefore he loses. With prep I'd probably give it to Batman. Logan wins purely because he can take whatever damage Batman dishes out, while Batman can’t.
Captain America
I call this a draw. Both are peak human level with Cap being a stronger. Batman's gadget's only get him so far and realistically he does not have an endless supply. In the end they trade punches until someone passes out. Stalemate.
Nightwing
Two powerless(no offence) humans. Batman is a better Nightwing. Batman wins.
Gambit
You're sorely underestimating the core abilities of the Gambit character, and assuming that because he is not traditionally educated that he is a complete idiot. Two scenarios, close range and long range. Long range Batman throws a batarang etc, Gambit throws a playing card. He's done it thousands of times I wouldn't fault his aim. Gambit has 52 cards fitting neatly into a pocket. How many gadgets does Batman pack in his shiny utility belt? Long range Batman runs out of projectiles, while Gambit has them in spades both figuratively and literally. Short range scenario, Batman has the edge in training. Most physical attributes are equal but part of Gambit's mutation is an enhanced agility above peak normal humans level so I’d assume that Batman finds it hard to land punches. The Batsuit is an inanimate object, and the long flowy cape although nice and stylish lol is a disadvantage here. Gambit needs but physical contact with an inanimate object to charge it with kinetic energy to blow. Gambit wins in both scenarios.
Nightcrawler
No prep time to set anything that elaborate up and I have no idea what he intends to do with mirrors??? Three types of people can predict where Nightcrawler will teleport to, telepaths, precognitives (in which I may or may not include Sage's cyberpathic mind analysis but definitely not Batman’s intelligent though it may be ordinary human mind analysis) and Nightcrawler himself. Batman is not going to be able to predict where NC's gonna be. I'm wondering how fast a batarang travels? Nightcrawler can teleport away as fast as he can think. Nightcrawler has the edge in agility and range (wallcrawling) and speed due to teleporation. Nightcrawler also has an edge in number of prehensile limbs. Simplest strategy make physical contact via an unpredictable teleport, then teleport again both him and Batman two miles up into the air and teleport back without him, I've explained this strategy ad nauseum. After a port the passenger not used to the experience is commonly sickly, at the peak of the 2 mile summit Nightcrawler easily teleports away. I agree it could go either way but I have to put odds in favour of a Nightcrawler win.
Blob
Whether or not Blob is a complete retard is an opinion, you're discounting him purely on that? What is not an opinion is Blob's incredible durability. This is a head to head fight, no prep. The smartest thing Batman can do is stay out of Blob's way. Batarangs aren't doing sh!t. The Blob is resistant to pretty much anything Batman can fish out of that seemingly endless utility belt. Blob can generate personal gravity fields, when he doesn't want to be moved he is immovable. Batman can do nothing to hurt Blob, let alone defeat Blob. The fight is a stalemate or Blob win depending upon whether Blob catches Batman.
