*Sigh* This is why I rarely visit this movie vs forum.

I think Wolf would probably have been the better candidate for the fight, actually. The Predator's of the first AVP seemed pretty inexperienced, and fairly easy to dispatch of.
If you go to any of the Predator or AVP boards over at IMDB and ask which was the best Predator of the bunch, all the Predator fans will unanimously say the first Predator. Even Wolf's biggest fanboy on that site says the first one is better. There's a reason the first Predator survived years before being stopped as opposed to all his buddies who died within days at best. And he did it with less weapons than them too.

How strong was the original Predator?
We didn't really get to see it's strength that much in the film. We do however know it's much physically superior than Arnold who lifted up a pick up truck at the beginning and was able to bend down those huge jungle trees with his buddies.

Jason is 7' tall, don't think the Predator is [much] taller than this, if all all.
Kevin Peter Hall has a foot on all the actors who played Jason exception to the last two actors Ken and Derek. Ken was even taller than Kane in his Jason outfit in part 8. Even this Jason wanted poster has the character at 6'3".
Jason wanted
The only time the director would have even intended Jason to be that tall would be in FvJ where the director said he wanted to give a David vs Goliath feel. Even then he was shy of 7 foot while the Thomas brothers themselves say the Predator is intended to be around 8 to 9 foot.

Arnold got in the Predator's "combat zone" just fine and landed hits. No reason to believe Jason couldn't do the same in a H2H.
Predator didn't even take Arnold seriously at that point. Or did you miss the part where it got Arnold's neck in it's claws and a moment later pinned against a rock, but chose not to kill him.

Let's just assume he can see Jason.
It was shown at the beginning of the movie that corpses appear in green. Even if that wasn't the case, in the final battle Predator was able to spot a small rock rolling down a cliff (bet that has less heat than Jason), and was constantly able to locate Arnold despite his best efforts. Nearly shot him a couple of times. Jason ain't hiding from Preddy.

With weapons, the Predator would likely win 10/10, as the shoulder cannon would tear Jason apart; H2H, Jason rips it two new assholes.
Jason was grabbed and pulled into the water by Tina's dad. Then held down until he drowned in part 7. Predator ain't loosing this one. Not to mention it took not one but *two* point blank grenade explosions before it finally started bleeding. Not a direct hit, but definitely in the explosion range as it almost fell off of the tree by the second one.
