I don't believe Matt has anything quite on the level of crippling an Aleph, surviving a direct hit from a Hulk level being, defeating a Doombot (twice), or surviving against a warrior fast enough to cut a bullet in half (Though not beat him, but simply last long enough for it's animating force to burn out.)

If any of those things were in this battle I might consider Shang Chi. But since it's just martial artists, I'm more interested in their performances against such. I believe DD has the best record here against other street level martial artists.
He's lost to Frank Castle. 😛
Sure, stun gun, but that's fair game.
If you want to compare similar opponents, for my money Shang looked better against Spidey the one time they faced off, against most of the many times Matt did.
They both also fought Danny Rand. And while Matt looked decent, if you consider Danny was handicapping himself by copying Matt's style, while Shang outright held his own and looked a tad better...?

DD. Best fighter here + home field advantage.
Not too sure about that. Fighting in Hell's Kitchen didn't stop Elektra from beating Matt down recently over a "misunderstanding."

I believe the records are close with a slight edge to Elektra.
Originally posted by SupermutantI'm not so sure about it being a slight edge to her. Even when Matt went all out against her, he got wrecked when she stopped holding back.

That's far from her beating him down.

Eh? She ambushed him and he was trying to reason with her while she was bloodlusted.That's far from her beating him down.
Not an ambushed because it was a previously agreed upon meeting, and DD knew she was there.
It was exactly a beatdown b/c Elektra almost killed him twice. And even if Matt was holding back in the beginning, he got very serious quickly thereafter. After Elektra was going in for the killing strike and Blindspot stop her, then she broke his arm.

I recall one instance in which elektra showed up in matt's bedroom, he tries to beat her (even though she was trying not to fight) and when she got serious, she laid him out.
Yeah, Matt went crazy on her as if she was responsible for killing Harambe, landed some good all-out hits... and she still put him in a hold.
