It's not self explanatory to me, so I would like you to explain how Batman would win, you seem pretty confident in your opinion, it shouldn't be a hard thing for you to prove.
You mean besides using things from his utility belt such as gas or the like ?
He also engineered a virus capable of taking down Plastic Man with which he destabilized his molecular structure. He could do the same thing to Reed.

And your logic that because Batman knows someone with similar powers to Reed gives Batman the win is flawed.
In this case, it does.
And comparing Batman knowing Superman to Batman knowing Plastic Man is ridiculous to say the least.

You realize Bruce has no prep in this fight right? How would he have an engineered virus ready for Reed?
Reed doesn't have to stand there and be affected by the gas, I assume he is allowed to move in this fight.
Reed could wrap himself around Bruce and just suffocate him.

While I'm pretty neutral in this particular debate, wouldn't that virus be useless considering it's based on Plastic Mans molecules and not Reeds ?

He already has the virus engineered, there would be no need for him to study Reed beforehand.

Who says he has to stand there to be affected by the gas ?
Lulz at this 'counter-argument'
Reed could wrap himself around Bruce and just suffocate him.
Who says he'd get the chance ?
The virus isn't standard equipment for Batman, using it one time doesn't make it standard equipment. Plastic Man =/= Reed, so even if he did have it there is no guarantee it would work.
Yes, it's funny that Reed can get out of the gas affected area...
Who says he wouldn't get the chance? What would Bruce do to stop Reed?
I consider that similar to the kryptonite ring used to fight Superman.
And since the comic is relativly recent, and it's not like he fights Plastic Man everyday, it's logical that it hasn't been showed many times.
And as I said, since it's used to destabilize the molecular structure, and it's has been used on a character with pretty much the same powers as Reed only at a higher level, I don't see why it wouldn't work.
Batman could also use sonics on Reed.
And even if Reed somehow managed to grab a hold of him, Batman could always use the belt to shock him.
To finish this argument I'd like to compare the plastic man/reed richards debate with another comparable analogy... superman v superman prime
Plastic man's powers come from chemical's...
Reeds from cosmic rays...
while both are human... and display similar abilities.. they were derived in different ways...
in superman v superman prime... both men's powers are derived exactly the same.. from the fact that in their respective universes they are kryptonians... that are empowered by a yellow sun.
However in the mainstream dc universe.... superman prime is unaffected by kryptonite being as his genetic makeup, though similar is still different.
And thats superman v superman prime... same basis for powers... some genetic background.... yet kryptonite doesn't work on prime...
