I think that would factor into gameplay mechanics. I would say that MC is still stronger than the Pred by a good amount though.
He actually ran around 60 kilometers per hour IIRC. And he was shown to be able to flip tanks in the novels as well.

^^ Nah he is faster, without his armor he already has a deegree of superhuman speed, the armor boosts it even more, for example he was fast enough to dodge a missile fired from a jet, there was a point in time in the first book were he was moving so fast that everything seemed to be in slow motion to him. I am not sure but it was prolly when he dodged the missile. I dont remember specifically because i read the book a long time ago.
I'm pretty sure thats not speed,that's reaction time.You could have the speed of Wally West,but if you don't have the reaction time,your gonna run into a wall.If you could have good enough reaction time,you could dodge the fastest punches in the world.
Also, I believe the predator would win with his shoulder cannon,a couple of shots to the head and MC is down for good.And predator's claws would easily pierce MC's armor,even if it couldn't,I would easily cut through his weaker,flexible armor around his head.
With that said, Predator FTW!!!

I was unaware that he'd flipped a tank in the novels. I stand corrected.
Yeah, neither was I, I thought I had heard it from somewhere, but thought it was just in the games they were talking about which of course would just be a game mechanic so u can still use a tank or w/e thats flipped, so I thought MC was like a 5 tonner tops, but I checked and they said it was in the novels as well, and apparently they are canon. 😬

I was thinking he was 5 ton tops as well, but I'd only read one of the novels and that was a while ago.
