This isn't CBR we only do comicbook battles here.Holmes would win.
Plus, Joker has thrown down with some of the best martial artists on the planet.
His intelligence is vastly beyond Holmes, although most of the time he just acts crazy.
And. . .he's a crack-shot.
I never knew The Joker was a towering intellect. I remember him being a psychopath and quite intelligent but not so remarkably intelligent.
whereas Holmes is quite simply brilliant.
Holmes would take a while to understand The Joker's mentality, quirks, habits and "issues", then probably effectively combat him.
