Well prodigy gains the experience and knowledge etc, its part of his powers, like when he fought wolvie, he was able to react and counter, and beat wolverine because wolverine didnt know his powers. So if KK doesnt know wut prodigys powers are im sure KK would pull a move he uses and Prodigy would know that move(KK not knowing) and beable to counter it and beat it. Also prodigy is a very good tactical fighter, makes a very good leader.

Thats not how prodigy's powers worked 😬
He immediately knew anything you knew. He was a limited type of "mind-reader"

KK would recognize his own moves.
KK has more experience.
KK is stronger.
KK is faster.
KK is tougher.
KK is smarter.
KK can FLY...
Prodigy gets his ass kicked. He simply doesn't have the experience, physical body type or strength to fight effectively.

How often has KK lost a fight against another martial artist? How often has Prodigy faced an opponent of KK's caliber and actually won?
Prodigy get his punk ass handed to him. He has the body of 16 year old boy who works out every now and then while KK is flooded with inner chi and can benchpress thousands of pounds....

Momentarily. Prodigy would use his own skills against him. And KK would instantly recognize his own skills. Hell, he MADE them. Noone fights like KK. He would use his experience and greater inner chi (something Prodigy cannot copy) to punch through his own defenses.
A mime like Prodigy simply won't last long against KK. Or Batman. Or Captain America.

Here are the scans everyone's referring to. Note this didn't actually happen, Dani and Emma were showing Prodigy his actual abilities and the repercussions of unlocking his mental block that prevents him from assimilating knowledge permanently.

If we're referring to this Prodigy then I'd still give it to KK for these reasons Draco listed:
*KK is stronger.
*KK is faster.
*KK is tougher.
*KK can FLY..
The experience and being smarter wouldn't make a difference since Prodigy would just assimilate whatever he needs from KK . 😬
Allow hypothetical Prodigy to take a walk through the DC and MU universe and then I might reconsider. Hah Dr. Strange...ermm
Anyway after what happened in New X-Men #38 I doubt we'll ever see this Prodigy.
Warning New X-Men Spoilers:
Spoiler:
Who was the one who said being depowered was the worst thing that could happen?
Don't look at these if you don't want to the end of the issue spoiled:

In the end, saddly, the only escape from mediocre, borderline, uselessness.
(realy the only way out after the way the writers hooked him up.)
"David, do some thing!" "Get me outta this!" (i threw up in my mouth/ way to go creative team)
Hey Cloak, the only reason I'm reading this, is the anticipation of the inevitable Nezhno (Gentle 😆 ) dismemberment ( "Extreme Strength"? Riiiiiiiight) just so i can say:
"Told ya so" 😎

You don't understand. Prodigy would also know every single martial arts style there is in the world. You think Karate kid would instant recognize each style? Prodigy knows KK better then he knows himself, and can anticipate what he'll do next. He'd know exactly what KK would do and how he would react.

Not only would KK know each style, he'd beat Prodigy senseless. He can know all of his experience and styles, and still not win. I don't believe Prodigy can beat KK in a straight fight even with the skill leech.
Yo.
