Taskmaster has. Cap did when they fought. Come on the fact that Spidey said URRK or HURRK whenever Cap punched him tells you he was hurt. Not knocked out, but hurt.
And no in a barehanded fight I think Spiderman would beat cap. In a barehanded fight I think the Lizard would beat Cap. Yet this isn't barehanded is it? Cap has his shield.
Realistically, Cap shouldn't win this without massive PIS.
The lizard is as fast or faster than spiderman is, without spidey's tendency to hold back or not kill. Spiderman has shown on NUMEROUS occasions that he's fast enough to dodge cap's shield and DD's truncheons. Even if cap has his shield, throwing it like a projectile with the intention of KO'ing the lizard is highly unlikely to work. he'll simply dodge it or swat it out of the air.
So you're left with Steve trying to use it to block the lizard's strikes. Ok, we've seen the shield take hits from people as strong as gladiator and absorb the damage.
problem here: so has the lizard. it's common freaking knowledge how strong the shield is, and the lizard has genius level intellect. The shield also does NOT cover all of roger's body. if he's standing, his legs are vulnerable. if he's crouching, his back is exposed and he can't maneuver or attack well that way- at least not fast enough to counter someone with lizard's speed.
Lizard is going to go for the exposed areas the shield doesn't cover. And don't forget Lizard has five appendages to attack with- he can (and has) easily struck with hands and feet while using the tail to KO from below or to the sides. If Lizard goes to grapple Cap, tying up his arms, he can easily go for the legs with the tail at the SAME TIME to take cap off his feet and immobilize him.
Lizard's durability and HF are also so high that standard strikes from steve are unlikely to phase him. Steve gets a couple good shots in, Lizard is going to keep coming at him. Lizard gets a couple good shots in, that's lights out for steve- or at the very least, steve is going to be dizzy and disoriented.
Lizard has every advantage in this fight. higher OVERALL durability, higher speed, healing factor, and what essentially amounts to a REALLY LONG extra arm. Toss in the fact that lizard isn't human and has rock hard skin, and pressure points are highly unlikely to work as well. (lizard and human nervous systems aren't equivalent at all, and connors is some kind of hybrid.)
Lizard takes this 9/10
