Iron Man however would be a blur to the human eye moving on foot, he has been recently clocked flying at mach 8.7. Sentry even said he was damn fast and he moves at light speeds. That soildly puts even a superspeeder like Quicksilver to shame.
So Yes, I still think Black Bolt would have a tough time dealing with that.
Im a little confused at the batman analigy, it sounds like your compareing apples and oranges. So ill skip that,
However, this is not a race, this is an H2h fight. It is illogical to assume iron man fights at light speeds or anything remotely close to it. not that thats what you were implying, but what im saying is that Iron man has no speed advantage over BB, in h2h combat, they are on at the minimum equal footing. He wouldent have a hard time dealing with that.
I think alot of people mistake BB for a screaming maniac who uses his voice to solve all his problems. Blackbolt time and time again has gone h2h with people well beyond Iron man. Shrugging off incredible blows from the thing in his early showings (and this is a lower end showing) reminds me that IM isint going to do much more to him than what he hasnt allready handled. In his fight(s) with Hulk he showed the durability required to suck up enraged strikes from him as well.
This is the guy that destroyed Sphinx (after sphinx easily defeated the fantastic 4, the inhumans royal family & quicksilver) With merely blasts and punches. Whom also endured excruciateing torture, and shortly after engaded in h2h combat with Gladiator. The same guy who after going H2h with Thor (and fairing very well UNTILL being struck in his antenna) Fought a team of Namor, thing, mr fantastic, invisible woman, human torch, medusa, gorgon and karnak in a weakened state. Blackbolt has the durability, H2h finess and damage output to put IM down permnantly, the ONLY way IM can win this is if he were to strike him in his antenna (and thats not even a gaurenteed win, as he has shown to go into a berzerk/weakened state if this happens) Or unless he is holding some unholy artifact that is going to suck blackbolts lungs out.
H2H
Black Bolt 8/10
Regular, BB 10/10.
