I think leo trying to figure out how each match up in terms of MA skills, thats why he made these threads, so I am trying to let him know that point fighting has little to do with real fighting.
cap may be more skilled, but he can't beat logan in a real fight

I agree.
Sparring like this is good practice for finesse and technique, but doesn't readily translate to "who's better/going to stomp" in a consistant way. (I am taking your assumption about the underlying motive at face value)
I have always thought capt. A to be on a better skill lever than other top street fighters of marvel (wolverine, dd, etc.)
in a real fight, he'd have trouble with wolvi coz of the healing factor, but in a point system like this he has all the advantages.
he's taller (longer reach), he doesn't tire (almost anyway), he has more finesse, he's used to dodging (while wolvi just soaks up damage), he's faster (curtesy of super soldier serrum and wolvi's 300lbs frame), and he's still titled as one of MU's best h2h fighters.

No he really doesent, his style of fighting is not good for point system, Logan superior knowledge of different MA would give him an advantage.
He smaller true, but he also a harder target to hit. Wolverine stamina is as good if not better. He does not have more finesse in the least, wolverine does not need to dodge, but has shown to be just as good as capt when the event calls for it as shown in there origins fight. Capt not faster in the slightest wolverine has superior speed feats. Wolverine posses super human level stats and also had his body physically enhanced by the same program. Capt not Marels bets h2h fight nor does that mean anything in point sparring.

Cap has superior speed feats. It's not a question.

Yet Steve was impressed by Logan's dodging skills.

Yeah, sure. Based on Baron Zemo scan?

Now that's very interesting. Examples of these "superior" feats?

Whatever, Cap does more blocking than dodging anyway.
I remember a wolverine issue, guest starring captain America, wolverine jumped towards cap (claws out) and coulda killed cap there and then, and this wasn't from behind cap saw wolverine coming and just stood there looking scared, wolverine saved cap from some invisible ninja who was about to kill cap...just saying, cap wasn't so fast then
