Gladiator vs Wolverine

I'm glad anybody who thinks Wolverine wins against Gladiator buys into penetrability w/o superspeed or healing = auto-win for Wolverine in H2H.

There are two versions of yourself fighting. One has super strength, and the other has the skills of Anderson Silva and foot long blades surgically grafted to his hands. You think the super strong version is going to win? Really?

But, yea, whatever, Wolverine beats Thanos in a melee fight with his snikty-snikts.

The strength is irrelevant until he connects, and the other fighter has a much higher probability of avoiding attacks, landing attacks, and finishing the fight with a single blow. Simple.

Thanos had both true invulnerability at the time of his last apparent death as well as a healing factor provided someone could actually damage him.

So, your argument is that Gladiator will never land a single hit on Wolverine?

You'll have to forgive srank, he's retarded.

^ Nice heel-turn. You're totally beng graceful about how you ended up endorsing Wolverine beating your boy in a melee fight and not randomly deflecting at all.

Of course, you haven't backed away from my poking at all and now you can prepare yourself for the inevitability of having to argue that Wolverine beats a pre-Annihilation Thanos in a melee fight because that version of Thanos got stabbed in an ambush.

Everybody ready for the hilarity? Painful as it might be to watch? I certainly am after 6 pages of people trying to convince me Wolverine beats Gladiator.

The argument is that Wolverine will connect with a higher percentage of punches he throws, avoid a higher percentage of punches his opponent throws, that his attacks will have a much higher probability of ending the fight instantly, and he can take an attack from his opponent better the alternative. In this scenario Wolverine has better damage soak, more effective offensive capabilities, range / skill advantages and a much higher critical strike chance. Gladiator could potentially BFR him, but Wolverine is more likely to drop him before that happens.

As Gladiator is strong enough to punch Wolverine into orbit..he only needs to land 1 punch. Therefore if you think that Wolverine wins, you must think that Gladiator will never land a single hit.

I guess Wrecker superspeed blitzed Wolverine somehow.

Right, a version of me with a sword has a great advantage over a version of me that throws mountains around.

I know strength is much easier to quantify for the simple mind, but what do you imagine the version of you with a sword is doing in this melee scenario while the super-strong version of you is trying to lift a mountain? Eating Cheetos? Imagine rock - paper - scissors... only in this version it is an breakable self regenerating scissors who cuts rock as easily as it does paper. The math isn't hard to work out. Wolverine wins.

That version of Thanos still had a powerful healing factor, and molecular control over his body.

Like he dropped the Wrecker in New Avengers- ... oh, wait. Wrecker BFR'ed him twice over. Never mind.

Did the Wrecker beat Wolverine? No. He knocked him down the street a few times and Wolverine was off his game from Spider-woman's pheromones.

gladiator has already demonstrated the inability to KO logan with his superspeed; without it, wouldn't it stand to reason that logan would fair even better?

Did Wolverine kill him before being BFR'ed twice? No. But I forgot, in between the panels, Wrecker superspeed blitzed him like Wonderman did.

It's only a BFR he can't return under his own powers. He wasn't BFR'd a single time in that fight, he was off his game because of Spider-woman, and unlike a forum match he wasn't blood lusted and actively working for a kill.

brawling gladiator without superspeed is essentially a thor without his hammer; logan was severely wounding thor, demonstrated greater reflexes & combat speed than thor, & was on the verge of defeating thor WITH his hammer.

I'd say the outcome of this fight is inconclusive; however, I think that fight with thor speaks for itself.

I don't know what it is but there is no indication that it was his claws...especially when we see Wolverine on the ground the next panel without his claws out.
