Alright, here's the dealio. Batman eats his greens and works the treadmill and spanks Robin to own his body and skills. Great. But he would've been killed a long f-ing time ago without his toys.
Future Superman tore Batman's belt off saying that it's always pissed him off that a little human was always beating the crap out of him with those gadgets, but without them, he's just a man. Future Superman went on to pimp smack Batman and almost crushed him with the Batmobile. Of course Cap's no Superman, but my point is Superman is right. Batman uses his toys like his life depends on it. Batman has to try his hardest to win even WITH his little belt. Cap has faced just as many super humans without a bag-o-tricks around his waist, and he was fine. He only got blown away because he wasn't fighting and was handcuffed.
Cap mostly fought World War II with nothing but his shield. He's also pwned Iron Man during the Civil War.
Captain America is THE peak of human potential. Batman is no stronger than fricking John Cena(you know, from WWE?) and can maybe greatly outrun purse snatchers and the like, but any dedicated man can get as fit as Batman. Look at Cassandra Cain. Peak-ish human potential, right? It seems anybody Batman farts on is suddenly peak human. Captain America can outperform any Olympic athlete who has ever lived, the SS Serum also peaked his intelligence, and it's clearly stated numerous times throughout his history that he's just one slight notch below super human. Cap IS physically and mentally better than Batman. Quite a few pegs better. So anyone debating this believing physical attributes makes the majority difference, Cap wins hands down.
Skill wise, without Batman's toys, he's just a really good martial artist. Cap doesn't need to rely on weapons. Besides his shield, Cap is a walking fighting machine who's endurance and strength outmatch Batman's. Bats gets in a few shots that might surprise or faze Cap, but ultimately Cap will school Batman. Takes him like Batman were an amateur.
How does Batman survive? The gadgets. If I had a billion dollars, I'm sure I could make a bunch of crap that could fell a bunch of planet pushers. That said, this fight is without the belt, right? That means his legendary prep-time doesn't make a difference unless he smuggles in a gas pellet and a gas mask the old fashioned way...
