Daredevil vs Bane

So recently finished watching the Netflix Daredevil series (quite enjoyed it, would recommend it to any Marvel fan who prefers more brutal action), and was wondering how he would stack up against Bane. He is quite skilled as a fighter, and is very fast, acrobatic and agile, with insane damage soak, where as Bane is an all out tank. So speed VS strength.

Round 1: H2H, Daredevil has his final suit.

Roudn 2: Daredevil also gets his billy club. Bane's mask weakness is removed.

Fight takes place in the spot where Baleman got his back broken. Given Daredevil's senses, the darkness wouldn't give Bane any kind of advantage.

Fight to KO

Who wins?

id say Bane in both, Daredevil got his ass kicked by lowly street thugs constantly while Bane gave Batman a sound ass whoopin

Can you please not try and lowball a Marvel character for once? At no point did he get his ass kicked by lowly street thugs. All the people he fought and actually had any serious trouble with were professionals who, based on their physical displays, were actually skilled as well. Guys like Nobu would have sliced Batman or Bane's slow asses to ribbons in a very short amount of time. Matt has multiple showings of taking out groups of armed thugs with ease. Melvyn gave him trouble because he was still in bad shape when he encountered him. He is also a lot faster and more agile than either Batman or Bane. They'd struggle to land a hit.

How are any of these guys lowly thugs?

Fight with Nobu. He was getting the measure of him in h2h further on, but Nobu's weapon proved to be a brutal advantage:

His fight with Stick, they guy who trained him when he was a kid and is a master assassin and fighter himself:

His fight with Healy, who was a professional killer who wrecked multiple guys at once in an earlier showing:

His two fights with Fisk. First one is more a damage soak feat, as this is right after Nobu. TO NOTE: The dialogue in these two, especially the final fight, might spoil some things in the show for people. So if anyone plans on watching it, I'd suggest skipping the 2nd fight here especially:

Second one he has his final suit:

Those were the people who gave him trouble.

Here is an example of him versus lowly thugs, and he wasn't even at 100% IIRC:

I'd root for hornhead all day.

But I'd think Bane is the probably victor. His punches can destroy cement. DD ultimately won his fight with Kingpin, but not with any sort of ease. And I'd put Bane > Kingpin.

If his senses could pick up the breathing apparatus and he went straight for that, he could take the first round potentially.

Bane and Kingpin are about the same for me. I definitely give this to Daredevil. Daredevil skill level looks much higher than that of the Batman that Bane fought.

What is it that has you put Bane and Kingpin as the "same?"

Bane decimated Batman before Bruce had the bright idea to hit him in his face-crab.

Bane

Daredevil has the slight edge

I'd say Daredevil. Bane has the strength edge, but DD has skill, speed and agility and could pick up on Bane's breathing apparatus and damage it.

Daredevil was still injured when he fought Kingpin btw.

And what of round 2 with the breathing apparatus weakness removed?

Matt dances around him then cracks him in the temple with his Billy club.

Bane is so slow Matt would have to stand there to get hit if he's at 100%.

Daredevil gets hit. Like, a lot. It's one of the things that made the show so good. How real the fights were.

So in fights with mobsters and thugs, he gets hit.

None of these guys have the punching strength to destroy cement pillars.

Watch Bane fight - the speed of his punches is incredible - it's a testament to Tom Hardy really. The dude is a beast.

PS I hate that I have to be the one arguing against DD.

And the guys who hit him ate either high end street level assassins or in big groups and Matt is injured. This is him at 100%. He can ricochet his club into Bane's skull, a trick he used more than once.

Bane is just super slow in comparison to even the thugs Matt fought.

DD routinely struggled with street thugs. Bane took on Batman who effortlessly takes down thugs.

Bane takes Round 1.

In round 2, DD has a chance via a ricochet. Otherwise, Bane.

Please post these showings where he "routinely struggled with street thugs", because I have posted clips of him treating random thugs like a joke, even when not at 100% (he also cleared an entire team of trained, armed men in seconds when he rescues Hoffman), not to mention all the times he has easily beaten info out of thugs, corrupt police officers etc. I also showed clips of the people he actually had trouble with. None of them are street thugs. Closest to a street thug was Healy, and we know that he is a professional and more than competent at what he does, based on his other showings.

So how about people stop the lowballing here, because the proof of his abilities, the calibre of his main opponents, and how easily he handles random thugs, has already been posted in this thread.

He did so in the best fight in the whole series.

Comparatively, Batman takes on like a dozen thugs and defeats them in under 30 seconds.

Relax.

Daredevil - when fighting these thugs - gets punched. He gets kicked. He gets beat up.

He wins, sure. No one is arguing that he wins fights against the thugs. But he gets injured. And it takes a toll on him.

None of the thugs that punch Daredevil have the strength to destroy cement.

So...if a trained Assassin Mercenary Ninja who has the strength to punch through cement punches him...that's...that's a tough thing to come back from.

As well, let's say DD utilizes the dark. It doesn't help considering Bane can see in the dark...

Matt had a similar scene to Bats stealthing around taking out every thug from the shadows though, and he did it without tech and armor in a minute (not counting the hostage, though he handled that well). Nothing but skills and senses.

Daredevil also had that scene where he flipped through automatic fire. Even if you argue that it was aim dodging, that's damn impressive.

He takes Bane.

Hasnt there been threads in the past pitting Jason statham movie characters vs baleman and bane before?
Jason statham movie characters always win against those 2.
I havent finished the DD series yet , but from what I seen netflix daredevil is in the same category as the statham movie characters in skill, speed, agility and fighting style.
I dont see why he cant win against bane or baleman.
Daredevil also fights dirty. He has no problem breaking arms and legs, etc.
If this is a fresh DD vs bane , i can see DD taking it.
So far in the series its never a "fresh" DD. He is always recovering from his wounds from previous fights.
Before baleman exploited the mask weakness, he was getting his fair shots at bane. tagging bane with punches. And baleman isnt that great of a fighter (in the nolanverse).

Bane wins, quite easily too
