They fight until one drops, who wins ?

Colossus loses as usual when he shouldn't.

This sadly, he should beat the phuck outta cage but he wont

Luke Cage beat the Thing. His skin is harder than impact of the atmosphere of radiation that gave the Thing his power. That means it’s more powerful than the measure of its strength.
Great fight.

Cage is all over the place, but Colossus is more consistent. A properly written Cage would lose.

Cage beats him 10/10 with high mid difficultly everytime.

He'll give Piotr some mild lip service about being a tough opponent but ultimately he won't even be breathing hard. A little nose bleed at best.

How strong is luke cage now?

I'd love to agree, but... we need to be fair here.

Cage's lows can be easily explained --- he was before his upgrade.

What we need is more info about said upgrade. Luke supporters always mention it, but never give us any details. Did it happen during his 1992 series?

Modern Cage is a force to be reckoned with, basically a Mike Tyson with Superman powers, who cannot wait to bite your penis ear off for absolutely no reason at all...

Of course, similar arguments can be used for Colossus --- him getting altered by Magneto and growing up, reaching his full physical potential.

But Cage appeared to have a drastic improvement in performance because of his upgrade, whereas Colossus' best feats happened during his teens.

Be pretty cool to see this happen in a comic. Cage should definitely be very close to this level if not at this level. He looked like a solid low Class 100 after blowing past the Rhino who is classified at Things strength level.

Axis.

Colossus got beaten off-panel.

The cut off for feats before Colossus left his teen years was around Uncanny #225 so anything before that you can use.

You post a feat and I'll try and match it with one where he wasn't a "teen".

His fight with Gladiator.

Secret Wars spaceship.

His fight with full powered super Juggernaut.

Holding a collapsing skyscraper.

There was a time just after he recovered from injury, that he broke nearly anything that he touched because he was unable to control his strength, but I don't think that counts.

Bushmaster upgrade?

There was also a scene where Colossus was restraining Rogue who at the time had Captain Marvels strength and Rogue mentions something about how much stronger Colossus had become because she couldn't break free.

The problem with upgrades is that writers often forget, or have no idea of the changes. This means thateither of these two could find themselves being beaten by characters that they shouldn't be beaten by. At their best, they're about even.

Can any version of Cage beat Colossusnaut?

No
