Cap runs the gauntlet

Started by ThorForce2 pages

even if cap makes it to the end, its bye bye cap, KK is a beast.

Spiderman beats him for the majority, but he's likely the only one. I know KK's a beast, but the fact that this is street boxing severely limits his arsenal and unless I'm mistaken Cap IS physically superior.

How is Peter Parker going to beat him when he doesn't even know how to box. He doesn't know proper punching or defensive technique. PP would lose in a boxing match because he would leave himself open to Caps counters.

Ummm....it would take one hit to decapitate him....And if by some miracle spiderman lost, KK would humiliate cap in a fist fight. Think for a moment on what Bruce Lee was able to do with one single punch, then multiply it by a whole lot.

Cap's going to have a difficult time putting Pete down if he can't do things like pressure point strikes and limiting what fighting styles he's allowed to utilize severely hampers his defensive abilities. Cap's primary advantage over Pete is a MASSIVE difference in melee combat skills and many of those are lost due to the nature of the fight. On the other hand Spidey's slight speed advantage and significant strength advantage are both still in full effect.

He has to land one hit and even IF he does Cap has durability feats that negate your assurtion. 😉 PP doesn't have the skill to hang with Cap in a BOXING match. He has even admitted this on panel so it's really not up for debate.

Stops at Muhammed Ali.

Admittedly I haven't read Cap America in a whole lot, but are you saying to me that a "peak human" who is in no way super-anything, can take a 15-ton punch to the face and not die? Or did cap become superhuman?

Cap is not "Peak". His on panel and most importantly Cannon feats prove it. Cap would KO Pete in 5 minutes in a boxing match, which much to the surprise of some of the posters favor Caps skillset more then Peter. Because Cap is stated as using Boxing as one of his primary martial arts where Peter just uses his physical advantages over his opponents. There will be no jumping in an iradic maner or webbing in this fight so really its PP who is handicapped and not Cap.

So Cap is superhuman then. Lemme ask you, since you know more about cap. How many times has he been stated on panel as being superhuman as opposed to how many times he's been stated on panel as being peak human?

"stated" as in "in the handbook" where he's also stated as being peak human huh? 😉

It doesn't have to be stated when the reader can see Cap breaking Iron Chains with sheer strength.🙄

You would have a point IF he didn't use it in the Comics. 😱

You put the answer to my first question in the quote 🙁

So basically he gets stated in the handbook as well as on panel to be peak human, not superhuman but is written to have strength and durability of superhuman (very high if you claim he could take 15 tonner punches to the face without harm) proportions.

1 + 1 = shitty writing.

He has done it time and time again so it isn't shitty writing, it's exactly how the writers want the character portrayed.

cap is like batman, imo... they'll always say he's a certain level (peak human), but his feats in comics will always contradict that level...

its up to the readers, really...
