Punisher vs...Cable

No powers........weapons and h2h

who wins

You realize technovirus would instakill cable right w/ no powers but I'm assuming that it's going to be held in check so anyways. Cable Technovirus isn't a power and it augments durability and physical strength and hes been fighting far longer and under constant combat conditions compared to Punisher

well obviously the techvirus isnt going to be into play, i planned on allowing its strengths and not the weaknesses since Cable is far older than Frank imo it would offset the inbalance

how old is 616 punisher supposed to be now?

cables weapons are future tech and far more advanced than punishers

Cable still takes it. Skills forged in constant warfare>pick and choose fights. Cable didn't have the luxury of peacetime for most of his life he was born and died on the battlefield of course him coming back w/ all of his experience with what his original powerset barring the technovirus i.e. x-man level psychic ability would be beastly. The skills Cable has learned over his life are so completely ingrained into him from the constant fighting I think he edges out over Frank hard.

didnt cable get a new techno none aggressive virus?

pretty sure cable didn't need to restrain it other then accept it due to him having lost his powers after being lobotomized...

either it really shouldnt matter for this fight.

pretty sure cable has gotten older now as well in the 616 finally slowing down physically his strength and durability still high though.

h2h i see cable beating frank with the strength lvl difference.
wpns is better but still give it to cable his skull and most parts of his body is metallic plus his bionic eyesight gives him an edge

mid 30s i believe, dont quote me though...and i see cable as being in his forties, not thst it would matter much...imo however Frank is faster

right i forgot 616 ws retconned as an iraqi war veteran

last I saw of cable he would be in his 50s may be early 60s

OP said no virus but even with purely human my argument is that Cable has been on the battlefield constantly since he was young fighting Apoc and such. He's bred for battle all his life. Frank is a fighter but he hasn't fought purely for survival and victory since he was a teenager in large scale guerrilla wars

you know that really means nothing......I mean Bruce has only been alive like what? 33, 34 years? and he can stomp plenty of people with "battlefield experience". By your logic extremely long lived characters should never get beaten

... the point was that his entire life was warfare.... not that he has more experience via age. It's just that war is essentially what Cable has been doing since childhood fighting desperate fight to desperate fight traveling through time. He never really had a break from the time he was born.

i understand that, but combat tactics and h2h fighting are not synonymous

I'll go with Frank

Cable has the combat prowess to beat deadpool in a h2h, he can rumble with wolverine too, in his prime, he's stronger than Punisher has enough damage soak to match and has more experience. The cable from cable / deadpool when they fought Luke Cage would beat Frank. I might give Frank the nod over an aged Cable. Barely though. Its a battle of Veterans and Cable is a bigger one.

More experience doesn't always mean a better fighter.

When did he beat DP?

^ I think it was back in 1993 or 92. "My fist in your face till the fat lady sings."

who is more experienced on handling guns though ?
