No, he doesn't.
Frank could take Batman.
He's not just some trigger happy vigilante or goon, he's a highly trained special forces and SEAL operative. He's Marvel's equivalent to Rambo. Hand to hand, Frank is no slouch, he's highly trained in close quarters combat. It's more regemented and not as varied as Batman (127+ martial arts supposedly), focusing more on lethal blows to suit his purposes, but it is as extensive, and he uses it with lethal intentions at most times, unlike Batman who is more into incapacitation than killing of his opponents. Frank is a world class marksman and packs a nice assortment of weaponry on him at all times. He packs the same smoke and gas implements as Batman, but also carries frag and phosphorus grenades, and an assortment of guns, notably his modified M-60 that can let off upwards of 300 7.62mm rounds in a minute with varying ordinance. Frank's use of stealth and guile in a combat situation is extremely comparable to Batman. Batman simply outclasses him in detective skills and number of martial arts known, while Frank packs enough weapons and ammunition for a whole batallion and has no second thoughts on shooting to kill.
I'd take Frank without prep.
Good point...But just because Batman doesn't kill his opponent, it does not mean he is weak...I'm sure if he wants to, he can kill his enemies easily...Batman outranks the Punisher in combat, intelligence, detective skills, and has more advanced gadgets than the Punisher...even without Prep, Batman would smoke the Punisher....None of the Punisher weapons will be effective if he can't find his enemy...that's exactly what Batman would do...

Nah, Batman only has Frank in the science and detective fields. When it comes to combat, Frank is right there, he just doesn't know as many forms of martial arts. His h2h training is more catered to killing (special ops military training), it's an extensive curriculum, just not as varied as what Bruce put himself through learning all those various styles. Frank is a great tactician and has extensive experience from his military campaigns, as well as being a vigilante. He was a very highly decorated soldier before turning into the Punisher. He plans out all of his hits thoroughly, including contingency plans. He's trained in the use of stealth just as well as Batman. Ninjas are not the only people that know how to sneak up on someone undetected and put a knife to your throat or through your heart. He's not as much of a whiz on the computer as Bruce is, but you give Frank a target that doesn't have a biomatrix or X-gene that allows them to manipulate the EM spectrum, and he'll find a way to kill it.
This fight is no prep; Batman is not going to be packing a boomtube generator or Mr. Freeze's ice cannon, he's going to have his normal night patrol implements against Frank's normal night patrol implements, which are mainly lethal in Frank's case.
Frank can and will kill Bruce.

Batman and Punisher are very equal. Batman is probably a better fighter, but Punisher is tougher, so that equals things out a bit.
It can go either way, but Batman will only win because he's so much more popular than Punisher.
Batman has taken out people who would destroy Punisher in a fight.
Batman has gone a few rounds with Etrigan The Demon recently.
Punisher is a badass, but he's NOT as good as Batman.
He's a military-type green beret/SEAL/special forces expert.
Best on the planet at that.
Batman is a martial arts master and acrobat supreme.
Punisher can take a LOT of punishment.
I'll give him that, but he's NOT beating Batman in H2H.
Batman:
Master detective with a brilliant detective mind; quite possibly the greatest martial artist alive; Bat-costume is bulletproof and fire-resistant, featuring a weighted cape and a cowl outfitted with night-vision technology and communication arrays; utility belt contains an arsenal of crime-fighting gear, including varies types of offensive batarangs, de-cel jumplines and grapnels, micro-camera, smoke pellets, acetylene torch, gas mask, rebreather, and flexi-cuffs among other miniaturized lethal weaons...just to name some.
So without prep, I'm pretty sure the Bat can deal with the Punisher just the same.

That must be one heavy utility belt.
Punisher, a wanna be bad ass ? No disrespect for Batman, though he is indeed the better skilled one (barely), I would think Punisher is the true "bad ass".
Punisher doesn't hold back, doesn't mind killing, is wanted by the law AND by the underworld and is a freaking tank.
Batman isn't "bad ass". He's just an ass (only kidding lol).
