Anti-Monitor
1. With BFR
2. Without BFR.

Who wins?

Gladiator in both. Too fast, way too good at fighting.

BruceSkywalker
Gladiator ftw

tkitna
Glads

carver9
Glads easily. Stronger, faster, more durable, more powerful and a way better fighter

Tony Stark
Gladiator

Judging by pretty much all of Gladiator's battles, he'd more than likely charge at Konvikt just like Superman first did.... In which case he'd be owned with a single punch, just like Superman was.

I mean think about it, Konvikt pummeled the collective efforts of John Stewart, Firestorm, Black Canary, Flash, WW, Superman, Hawkgirl, Black Lightning, Vixen, etc. Never would I give the odds to Gladiator vs. all those characters. Especially when he doesn't have access to the same gas/plot device that Supes used to down Konvikt.

srsly

I'm going with the fuzz ball, here.

Are you saying that Supes get shit-stomped by Konvikt? eek!

Gladiator. On KMC superman would use his speed against konvict and gladiator would do the same

Konvikt.

Lord Feron
Gladiator with ease.... IDK why DC made konvict like he is so badass. Supes on his own should have been able to win.

Also didn't supes let Kon punch him in the face? (damn idiot)

Glads will not play such games with a enemy.

I see that as a very relevant point, because most of Gladiator's battles suggest that he would do much the same thing (ie. try to bullrush Konvikt and see what happens.)

But he would speedblitz at so much speed (using KMC rules) that he would notice Konvikt has durability. If he chooses to slug it out from there, then he is just silly.

Even if speedblitzing was in character for Gladiator (which it's really not) - Konvikt was able to counter blitzing from Flash, while he was fighting various other characters (and with little difficulty, at that.)

No. srsly

Really Supes didn't let Knovict punch him in the face? Then I guess he did straight up get knocked the **** out.

I was under the impression DC fanboys believed Supes allowed Konvict to lay him out to "gain his measure." Sorry about that.

IMO Konvict should never have gotten as far as he did in DC.

Gladiator has speed blitzed, and also, we are to suppose they use their abilities to the fullest, that means speed.

Flashes had been countered by Deathstroke, it could just be PIS, if he had blitzed other characters or given proof of actual super speed I would accept that, but hitting Flash has been done a lot in comics.

Second time, Konvikt was fighting Flash/GL/FS, so a thunderclap was an easy way for him to simultaneously own all of them.

Firestorm and John stewart( without shields) arent in gladiators class durability wise nor speed wise. Also Flash being knocked out by a thunderclap or stomp is either some serious PIS (if anyone argues for hulk using the same manoever theyd be laughed at and rightly so) or tells us that flash was definitely moving extremely slowly by his standards in order for it to affect him. Considering the combat speed glads has displayed (his battle with hyperion was being measured in nanseconds) Konvikt shud have little to no chance of countering a speedblitz from him as thunderclapping or hitting the ground certainly isnt going to work.

All are weaker than Glads.

Stewart must have been daydreaming.

I don't think the thunderclap is going to bother Gladiator. If he thunderclapped Supes, Capt marvel and Wonder women then Yes it would definitly have an affect on Glads.

I doubt a thunderclap is going to put him down for any significant amount of time. I never said it would. I said that's how he countered Flash's ground blitz. Konvikt has more than enough strength to put Gladiator down.

Doesn't really matter though. Gladiator won't be able to BFR Konvikt, so this battle would stay confined to it's original field. That said, unless there's proof Glads has moved in teh nanoseconds on an actual planet (not flying around in space,) then why would I believe he'd be moving any faster than Superman and the like in this battle?

If there is proof, then I'll happily condede that point. smile

He blitzed Thor and Cannonball, not that they are speedsters or anything, though.


What makes you think a thunderclap will affect him?

Scientifically yes ( i assume u r referring to friction levelS) but in comics i dont think such things play too much of a role. And still given gladiators strength level his speed wouldnt reduce substantially.

And you mean the same battle with Cannonball where Gladiator used his 'most powerful punch' that not only failed to do anything, but Glads also became much weaker afterward, due to lack of confidence... That one? Because judging by that I'd think that once Konvikt tags Glads, his confidence would sure as hell sway.

You are right kinda....

Canonball was able to kinetically absorb all the force of the punch. IMO it's going to be the greatest feat Cannonball has ever did and maybe ever will do. Not that canonball was stronger it was just the creative use of his powers. A few panels later it was explained that the move was completly experimental and he wasn't even sure if it was gonna work. BUt i guess it's better than standing there and being a bloddy stain on his hand.

Also Glads only loses confidence when his greatest hits do not faze a character at all. Konvict is nowhere near that category. He has fought the likes of Hyperion and DP Tyrant without even losing confidence.

I don't remember if that is true or not, but if it is I don't see how that is a bad feat when Cap's shield is one of, if not the hardest substance shown in Marvel. Yes, Reed used a hologram to disguise Cap so that Gladiator would pummel against what he thought was Reed. Reed surmised that Gladiator's powers were psionic in nature to an extent. And no it's not a bad feat. It isn't just the most hardest substance, it also absorbs nearly all impact as long as Cap has some sort of set leverage. Cap with an adamantium shield would get blown away by those blows. Cap with his true shield can stand there and take em. Gotta love comic science.

Eh, I think Gladiator in both. From the fight with Superman, where he simply charged ahead and got one-shotted, it didn't seem like Superman was going very fast. Because if he was, Konvikt wouldn't have been able to react. Look at how long it took him to react against Flash's blitz. Glads has been known to bullrush pretty quickly. Vs. Torch, Thor, Wonder Man, Cannonball, the Eldest, etc. I don't think Konvikt would be able to react to it. Plus the whole, being a superior fighter thing, etc. etc.

So Glads takes both scenarios.

Batman-Prime
KMC fight
1. Glads
2. Konvikt

Badabing
I swear people didn't read all two comics in their entirety where Konvikt squared off with the JLA. The JLA was more concerned with saving the citizens of the town, then moving the fight away from people than going full out. Cripes, the dialogue states as much.

That said, once Konvikt was away from the town, Superman was gaining the advantage per the dialogue and then WW was at the very least holding her own. Then of course Batman saved the day. biscuits

My point is that one encounter was impressive but I don't think it's nearly enough to get a majority over Glads.

durfist I agree with this. Also, Konvikt appears to be a mindless brawler and he doesn't get his lil midget friend to help either.

Won't stop Gladiator from attacking Konvikt's fist with his face a couple of times though. rolling on floor laughing

Gladiator 6/10.

Gladiator really should take this... Konvikt hasn't really been THAT impressive in his few showings imo...

Not enough from Konvikt. At the very least he does seem to be strong enough to bust Superman's chops. He also gets more pwoerful in armored form. Per forum rules, he would start out in that form would he not?
