Blade vs. Ironfist

Wolverine wasn't trying. It's obvious when he's mocking Blade with "ouchie"... If he was then why did he punch Blade in the head clawless?

I still yet to see anything that gives ironfist the win

Cape killers weren't ALL that impressive. Steve Rogers took down 20 of em Dum Dum Dugan included and he wasn't even ready for them.

If SHIELD wanted Blade taken out it wouldn't be that hard. You think he'd fair well against the New Thunderbolts or somethin?

What kind of proof will convince you?
I mean you have evidence of Wolverine flat out owning Blade to the point that Blade had to resort to using a handgun and a serum and saying that it's a testiment to Blade's skill being on par with Logan... So it really doesn't seem like you'll be convinced of anything short of "Blade wins".

which only goes farthur to support that Blade wasn't trying.

Maybe Blade rolled.. but I doubt it. IF Blade "should" have slashed instead of stabbed that goes farthur to prove that he's not all that when it comes to sheer skill.

Even though there is no narration or reason to assume Logan was holding back.

Logan never took that swipe... Point out where he did.
It really doesn't go both ways. Blade got railed, Wolverine wasn't trying. It's definitely not a pro-Blade feat at any rate.

This proves your biased view on all things Wolverine. Just because Blade chooses to stab instead of slice you say it shows lack of skill. But when Logan fails to damage Blade mortally you say it shows Logan holding back. 😆

Blade knew who Wolverine was before going into the battle, he was given a dossier on Wolverine prior to the fight and made fully aware of what he was up against.

So he chooses to go for a single stab? Really? Did he really think that was going to work?

Look, we've seen Logan stabbed in the gut by skilled swordsmen who were able to withdraw their swords and continue the fight. Silver Samurai, Kimora the Immortal, Shingen, and Ogun all used the same method but were able to keep control of their weapons and continue the fight (except for SS in their last encounter of course), Blade lost control of his weapon immediately. Whether you think that's due to a deficiency in speed, skill, or resiliency the point remains the same... Known skilled swordsmen fared far better than Blade did without having to resort to guns and serums... or Wolverine's charity for that matter...
And yes there's plenty of reasons to assume that Wolverine was holding back.

If he wasn't:
Then why didn't he dice Blade to pieces in his first attack?
Why did he retract his claws when he punched Blade in the face?
Why didn't he snikt through Blades skull when he had his fist at Blades jaw?
Why didn't he try to attack Blade when Blade reached for his serum and grabbed hold of Wolverine's mask?
Why didn't he attack him after?

Logan didn't take that swipe because Blade put the vial to his kneck then Logan backed off and let him up because it was "game, set, and match". All he needed from there was a silver bullet or a flash grenade. Wolverine may not be scared of death but he surely want's to avoid it. Blade sparred his life.

He wants to avoid it? 🤨

Oh is that why he's jumped out of SHIELD hellicarriers several times in spite of knowing he'd end up as pavement pizza?
Is that why he continuously starts crap with Magneto and Hulk?
Because he's so concerned for his own safety?

😂

uh-huh.

Look, even IF for the sake of argument, Blade and Wolverine were fighting all out all it would take to end Blade at that point is one swipe.. Where as Blade would still need to reach for any other weapon that may or may not work on Wolvie.

It wasn't game set and match it was Wolverine taking it easy on someone he saved before.

Funny.

I don't see Wolverine in this thread.
😬.

I almost let it go until that fanboy said it's an example that Blade's as skilled as Wolverine (and thusly Danny)... which is absurd.

Rand in a stomp.

Wolverine knew Blade was sent to bring him back in. So why would Logan hold back? At the start of the fight he states he's pissed and wants a beer. Blade keeps him from getting his beer which would piss me off anyways.

Logan was lucky Blade wasn't in it to kill him or he would have killed him from the start.

You make a good point. Blade does this instead of that jinzin writes it off as lack of skill. Logan does this instead of that jinzin writes it off as holding back. I don't get it.

Listen all I said was that it could go farther to prove a lack of skill, and there's plenty of evidence to support that given all the other skilled swordsmen Wolverine's fought....

But let's get real, Wolverine WAS holding back... I've yet to see anyone explain this away....

And yes there's plenty of reasons to assume that Wolverine was holding back.

"If he wasn't:

Why did he retract his claws when he punched Blade in the face?

Why didn't he attack him after?"

Even if you could argue or rationalize every other point there, the second stands out like a sore thumb.. Why did he retract his claws when he punched Blade in the face? That right there would have ended the fight immediately if Logan was out for blood.. He wasn't or anywhere close to it.

Anyway, Danny wins.

Yep, there is no evidence so suggest Logan was holding back. He has no reason to. If anybody did it would be Blade as he was forced into doing it.
If Blade wanted Logan dead he would have killed his midget @ss at the start.

like hell. He had several.

Blade's a hero, Wolverine's familiar with the Midnight sons.
Wolverine saved Blade in the past and can recognize that off of scent alone as displayed with Hunter in Darkness.
And, where the fight's concerned, WOLVERINE PUNCHED HIM IN THE FACE WITH RETRACTED CLAWS... He was holding back.. that's not up for debate.

Blade would have to be capable of killing him from the start to have a chance... I like how ridiculous that sounds coming from somone who called me a fanboy.. pfft.

Blade was obviously holding back. He was just toying with Logan and waiting for the right moment to make his move. And when he did Logan knew he was screwed.

Yeah that's why he dared Blade to do it, because he "knew he was screwed" 🙄

ok we'll make a wolverine vs. blade topic, this has gotten of subject

the fact still stands nothing from IF's feats suggest he could take out blade, a full powered ironfist if IF could manage a hit

Yea, I don't think there's no reason to believe Logan was holding back, nothing in the stroy corresponds with that assumption. Blade didn't even want to be there like mentioned above. He was forced into it by Shield. Instead of lolly gagging around he should have ended the fight at the start. And even when Blade had the chance to finish it he gave Logan the option. Live or die, Logan chose wisely.

😂

I guess I'm talkin to my ass or something...

Well I'll just consider the fact that no one can readily answer the questions I posed as a silent concession to this nonsense.
