Great fight. Talentwise, I give a slight edge to Matt. Ditto skillwise. But Batman is as smart as they come. He'd realize pretty fast that Matt is blind and use that to his advantage with some wicked misdirection and sound tricks, like leading him to a church and ringing the bells or something (if that counts).

Yes they are very overrated, and add to the "wow" factor of him, you can't really cycle through moves like that, and only have need for the: open appendage, closed, grab, and lock, techniques, all with counter another.
Once you have those the rest is just about focus, application , and concetration, all of which bamtan has, the other skills are just for different insight, and extension of knowledge.
But I'm going with Murdock on this one.

I started watching some old tyson fights on a classic sports channel a little while before i lost Cable.Alot of his fights werent being complimented for his power but for his great combinations combined with KO ability.Only once he got big headed did he become a mindless headhunter rather than a boxer and it was downhill from there
You have to include the fact that both of these people are well conditioned and not going to tire sooner. This is a hard fought battle both are fairly equal. I give to Batman though because the winner of this fight isn't going to be who's stronger or faster but who is the more clever and better fighter overall. I give the nod to Batman here. He always seems to be in control and focused. Plus I think he will outthink DD which as a stated earlier is the key to winning this fight.
Dam this is kinda close to call.
I wanna start by saying, why do people assume Bruce is stronger than Matt? Matt is capable of lifting(press) over 700 lbs.
Anyhow, like everyone says, strength wont be a factor. Bruce does have a very wide knowledge of the martial arts. Matt also is well trained in then MA. I know he was taught since the early teens(12-14). Bruce has a slight advantage in skills thatn Matt.
They both analyze their opponents to look for openings to attack as well as weak spots. I think Matt has a slight advantage because of his hearing which allows his to detect the slightest movement in Bruce. Also the heartbeat. Even if Wayne somehow figures Matt is blind, it wouldnt really help much imo.
Matt also has the advantage in agility. I would say reflexes also, because he knows exactly when Bruce is going to throw a punch due to his senses.
In the end, im going to have to give the fight to Matt. He has the agility, reflexes and a unorthodox fighting style.
Matt 7/10/ imo.
