There's nothing wrong with me for thinking that Bronze Tiger could beat Steve... This fight is closer than many would believe. It's not trolling to say that Bronze Tiger is a more skilled martial artist. My reason behind that is because Steve didn't have to put as much time in gaining the body that he has. Yes Steve is stronger, maybe faster, and nearly as skilled. But I won't say he's better just because he has better stats.
srankmissingnin, you say that "this fight is like asking: "Who would win a fight between you and a stronger, faster, better version of you who never tires?"... and some schmuck is saying "I think normal me would win!"
Normal? Normal as in your average everyday human male? Bronze Tiger isn't some "normal" guy. And Steve's advantages are not leaps and bounds past peak humans. Steve is peak human himself with limitless endurance. The difference is that the SSS pushes the body to the absolute limits. No human could archive limitless stamina, fast healing or retarded aging through training.
But some how Jinzin calls it buffoonery to make a list with other martial artist with abilities of their own to fight against Steve h2h. Sure Bronze Tiger doesn't have an HF, chi manipulation, or telepathy. But considering that he's taken on other beings with superhuman stats. It's probable that it's due to his superior fighting prowess and intensive training.
Poster have even gone far as to down play Deathstroke. Claiming that Winter Green and Addie were supposed to be more skilled than he. When in fact Addie pointed out that Slade is the best fighting solider she has ever seen. And Winter Green writes in his journal all the time about how good Slade is and the respect he has for him. But some how those two are better. And Slade is a superb combatant. It takes more than just stats to archive what he has.
And accusations of Slade being weaken doesn't take nothing away from Bronze Tiger in their fight at all. Because Slade has shown to be very efficient even when he was depowered.
And for the record srankmissingnin, Bruce did begin his training before he was 12 years old. When his parents were killed not long after that. Bruce start training in calisthenics and studying various subjects. In Batman #0 he is seen doing 77 one arm push ups. At the age of 12, Bruce started weight lifting, and it was sometime after when he left Gotham for further training. He was 25 (or he had just turned 25) when he returned and it was 12 years. He's was 28 when he first met Dick Grayson. And now Bruce is in his 40's. So yeah I do know how long he has trained and other facts as well.
