Punisher Vs Shang Chi

Started by Soljer10 pages

As far as that particular showing, I'd say it's not PIS. However, simultaneously, I'd also say it's inadmissible for a debate between Wolverine and Daredevil, due to Typhoid Mary clouding Matt's judgment.

He was likely fighting stupid. And it IS within a reckless Matt's abilities to be put in a full nelson by a clear minded Wolverine, who is at LEAST as skilled, and is a bit faster to boot.

Would a real fight between them go down like that? Never. However, that particular instance was not PIS.

Bringing it up to show that Wolverine is superior to Daredevil? That's bullshit. But the instance itself wasn't too 'stupid' in the PIS sense of the word.

Only because it's a hell of a lot more interesting than the curbstomping Frank would receive in the original thread.

Is there no one out there that understands the point I am trying to make? It's really not that hard to comprehend, and yet some people seem to keep making it more difficult than it is.

And by the way, capt. "And then there's the whole Typhoid Mary thing, in which she was definitely affecting Daredevil to the point where he's not totally 100% there with reality." This statement did NOT mean that she warped reality in any way. Rather, I meant it to say that she was messing with Daredevil's thoughts. He OBVIOUSLY was not thinking clearly, and this would affect the way he fought. When you have different reasons to fight (or not fight, as the case may be), you fight differently.

Edit: Apparently Soljer gets my point. Kudos.

Your point does nto valid stating PIS. Her power makes you want to protect her in no way woudl that effetc your fighting skill. She made DD think wolverine was trying to kill her. In no way would that effect his fighting skills all it would do would make DD want to fight wolverine. In no way shape or form does that make the fight pis.

So then that would validate using any instance in which Wolverine is mind-controlled, right? I mean, he's still being programmed to kill in the most efficient way. And so if he loses, it still counts, right?

doh

No. That's wrong. I know what her power does. And any sort of mental effect is going to hinder a person's fighting. In that instance, he didn't fight Wolverine the way he would a criminal (really, he didn't fight him at all, which is why it's just as PIS-esque as the DD win over Logan). DD still knew Logan was not a bad guy, and he was only trying to keep Logan from killing her.

Keeping someone at bay and actually fighting him are two VERY DIFFERENT things.

Serious question time: Now be honest. If DD had put Wolverine into the full-nelson in five panels (basically just flip-flopped), would you consider that PIS? Really, I just want to know.

under the circumstances that DD was put there?

probably not pis.

Difference is wolverine being forced to fight he has no choice and he trying to stop him self. DD was not being forced to do any thing. He thought wolverine was trying to kill her he was not forced to stop him he choice to.

Not true when he not being forced the only thing she is doing is making him think wolverine trying to kill her that’s it nothing beyond that.

Why would he attack wolverine like a criminal? He new it was wolverine he new he can not attack him like some common thug. He attack him straight forward there was nothing PIS about it. He has no other method of taking wolverine on besides h2h confrontation.

He knows wolverine has killed it not his first encounter with logan. He thought Logan was trying to kill her so he attack him in order to try and defeat him how is that PIS?

So now he was trying to keep him at bay? She was not planning on running. DD was planning to take Logan out. You are now just stretching. DD not going to simply let wolverine try and kill some one and then let him just leave.

No actually I would not. It would be an unlikely scenario, however is DD was able to pull it off vs his stronger faster opponent I would not call it PIS. I never said wolverine would normally pull that off, however it is a possible scenario which did work however it not likely to work any were near a majority of times.

That bloody greased up death guy,he's cost me 300$ worth of business already...he kept touching all the candy...

Alf, could you do me a favor and stop thinking you're the only one who knows things about comics? Seriously, man. I like you, don't ruin that by assuming you're the only one with any knowledge of Frank's history. I see the scans just fine, too. Like I stated before, Frank is an INCREDIBLE fighter, 2nd Tier easily. And he's also a damage soak, which is not a bad thing. Frank's durability is so close to superhuman it's not even funny. But Shang is just lightyears away from Frank in terms of skill. As is DD really. But that would sure be a boring comic, wouldn't it?

Shang wins this fight 9/10.

Ok metal im well and truly p***ed off with you right now, but i'll try to be as civil as possible, so lets try and discuss this like civilsed gentlemen.

I know you said you like me, but sometimes I find debating with you really infuriating. I know myself that I can over react and assume people are talking rubbish, but to be quite honest recently I dont think ive been too bad.

When I debate with you I dont think you really listen to anything I have to say and every time I have scans you've always got something negative to say about it.

I want you to sit back a minute and imagine your me and see how annoying this is.

First of all I give you a set of scans which show a good showing with Frank vs DD. What do you say? Its a lucky shot. Please help me out here in the Black Panther vs Iron fist thread you said this:

Originally posted by Metalmanx

My point was that if there is only one piece of evidence and it is written well on both sides, then I have no problem with it being used as evidence.

I dont understand this why cant that fight be taken as evidence to prove that Frank isnt lightyears behind Shang? Already you said that you can take one piece of evidence, but not in this case.

The thing that winds me up about you is that when it comes to analysing my scans the glass is always half empty. Lets think about this, the fight was about 7 pages long...I think. At any rate it was a long fight, if it was just luck Frank would have hit DD with a lucky shot and taken him down. Dont you think its unlikely that a vastly inferior fighter would last that long against DD?

That was a viable way of looking at those scans, but nooooo your only response was its a lucky fight.

Ok then there are my second scans. Do I get a response....no. I dont get it DD doesnt even hit Frank once in that fight. Frank hits DD twice and manages to throw DD over his back. Dont you think at least you should have the etiquette to at least address the scans?

Ok third scans Frank is fighting Bullseye and the fight ends with Frank choking the life out of Bullseye. Bullseye has beaten Elecktra before, right? I would have thought that Elecktra would put up a good fight against Shang.

Metal im not trying to offend you but half of the time I feel like im talking to a brick wall. DD could probably beat Shang Chi and take a majority, but Frank has good showings against him. Bullseye and Elecktra wouldnt do badly either and Frank has beaten Bullseye. So I really really really dont understand how you should be offended.

I should be offended because ive gone to the effort of producing the scans you havent given me anything. C'mon be honest what have you given to this debate, nothing. Any scans, no. Any explanations, no. Im producing all the evidence you're giving me nothing and you're getting pissed off with me?

Look at the above scans. Shang Chi is such a good fighter that he gets curbstomped by Wolverine. If Shang Chi is so good why didnt he put up a better fight?

Now this statement winds me up.

This is the same **** you say about Cap. You say you like Cap and you think hes great, I then find you saying that you're tired of his jobber aura. Does that sound like somebody who thinks that Cap is great? Now im sure you said it I just cant find the quote.

You know what the real killer is though? You like Cap so much you came to the Cap respect thread and started arguing over minor details. In all fairness you did apologise but basically I had to ask you to leave.

My point is this, you say you think characters are incredible but what you say and what you do contradicts it. Hell you've never contributed anything positive to the Cap thread. Xmarksthespot hates Cap and hes contributed more to the thread. You like Cap so much the only thing you contributed to the Cap respect thread is negativity and your doing the same thing to Punisher.

your whole arguement is about the fact Logan beat shang-chi? Logan would stomp frank in h2h combat. Frank skill level is well below logans.

Shang-chi would stomp frank in h2h combat stop being stupid.

No offense and I can see your mad, but I wouldn't say that scan was saying curbstomp to me, it looked like they both got a hit in each.

Shang may have not got up after that, I don't know as I haven't see the next page but, from your scan it looks like Shang nails Logan and Logan hits him right back.

Wolverine has a lot of advantages over Punisher, healing factor, enhanced strength, speed, senses, 100 years of training etc etc.

So Wolverine beating Shang doesn't follow that hes not that good a fighter, I would and have said from the begining that Frank will put up one hell of a fight and make a good showing, maybe even nick a few wins.

but the majority goes to Shang imho.

I didn't say Frank didn't use martial arts. All marines are trained in some for of hand to hand combat, and I'm sure hes received training outside of that.

Well this is what you said.

Originally posted by inamilist
However, even in those scans, Frank is clearly outclassed in skill and relies heavily on utter brutality to overcome his opponents (even though neither fight really finishes, and he is losing to DD when that fight ends...)

Basically you said that Punisher relies heavily on brutality. That statement implies that the Punisher was not good enough at MA to use technique against him. My point was that you were being unfair because most of the scans show Frank using technique.

Originally posted by inamilist

The words immediatly following that are "An arm for a leg. He's smarter than me." This is pretty much exactly what I said.

This is exactly what im talking about you are not giving Frank his due. Your are focusing on all the negative aspects. Frank also said "I suprised him."

My point is this we both agree that DD is a superior fighter, but by saying that Franbk relies heavily on brutality you are implying that Frank is a much inferior fighter, and in any case if you look at the fight closely thats not true.

Originally posted by inamilist

Frank sucker punches DD while he is talking?

EDIT: I looked at it again, its not a sucker punch, but it surely isn't proof of anything beyond what I have already argued for.... Unless the claim is Frank can one shot DD?

See what I mean? The fight starts with Frank kicking DD in the back and doing a martial art move that throws DD over his back. You then focused on that one punch were he hits DD when hes talking. Didnt it occur to you that DD has radar sense and that he should have been able to see it coming? Suddenly DD doesnt have radar sense anymore.

Originally posted by inamilist

What is the point of this? I don't know what you are doing? All I have said is that Frank is a good fighter, so you post scans of him being beaten or almost winning against other good fighters to try to convince me of what?

My point is he is better than you think he is.

Originally posted by inamilist

I don't agree that bullseye is greater than DD.

Neither did I, but hes beaten Elecktra.

Originally posted by inamilist

There fight was very even and didn't finish. See above.

This is how the fight ends.....does that fight look even to you?

Help me out here. Punisher is choking the life out of Bullseye and Bullseye is on his knees and you've come to the conclusion that the fight was even.

Would it be unreasonable to assume that your are not analysing the scans properly?

Originally posted by inamilist

This isn't chi vs DD, I don't really have an opinion on that one either. It's a lot like the cosmic battles that always are thrown around. I have no real interest in these unmeasurable hierarchies.

Well its an important part of this debate. DD has much better showings than Shang has, if you dont want to address it fine.

Originally posted by inamilist

So what was the value in even bringing any of this back up. We agree that frank is good but not as good as top tier fighters. We agree that he would put up a good fight against Chi, and we agree chi would eventually take a majority.

Are you really that interested in the difference between 5-6/10 and 7-8/10?

Well 8-10 I think is unreasonable, thats a curbstomp. Alot of people in this thread are using words like curbstomp and saying Shang Chi is will beat Frank 9/10, 10/10 and saying things like Shang will curbstomp Frank.

They have not provided any evidence and are ignoring Frank's history.

This is what I mean, Shang wil stomp Frank.? So in other words hes not going to put up a good fight? Are you actually going to provide some evidence instead of just talking. Saying that Shang is going to stomp Frank doesnt prove anything.

Im not talking about Frank Vs Wolverine were talking about Frank vs Shang.

DD has good showings against Wolverine and so does Frank, how comes all of a sudden Shang cant beat Wolverine, but despite this hes going to thrash Frank?
