"Abilities: The Kingpin has extraordinary skill in hand-to-hand combat. His fighting skills and unusual agility for a man of his size compensate for the great difference between his human level of strength and Spider-Man's superhuman strength when the two engage in unarmed combat, (Spider-Man also has inhibitions about using his full strength against an opponent without superhuman powers for fear of killing him or her.)"
KINPIN AT BEST CAN BENCH 600- 700 POUNDS AND BANE IS WELL ABOVE THAT THIS IS A MISMATCH.....BUT ON THE OTHER HAND KINPINS WAY SMARTER AND WOULD FIGURE OUT A PLAN TO DROP THE WALKING DUM ASS ......
kingpin is a better fighter, he can hold his own agaist spiderman, bane is just a crazy loon an freaking steroids, Kingpin would outsmart him. Plus he has the pimp cane
Kingpin should win. He's like a powerful sumo-wrestler who's very quick h2h. In the Born Again storyline decades ago, he nearly beat Daredevil to death in his weight room. Bane is heavy on his venom use, and isn't as skilled.

Yes, a Daredevil who was at that point out of his mind and not fighting in a controlled state.
For a good showing of what DD can do to Kingpin at proper health, read Daredevil HardCore by Bendis and Maleev. He stomped him flat.
Bane is a good fighter, but the only reason he originally beat Batman is because Bats was completely wasted. Batman would have no trouble with him any other day. Plus, Batman is about as skilled as DD. DD can beat Kingpin when he's fighting at best, so I should think Kingpin can beat Bane.
I only brought up the Born Again story because Daredevil was not physically hobbled in any way, like Batman was against Bane in Knightfall. DD was emotionally irrational and delusional, and his anger and hate cost him focus in that matchup against Kingpin, is all. I've seen the scans of their last fight by Bendis&Maleev, and yes most of the time Daredevil should win.

so what batman was totally messed up as well when he fought bane he had just gone though a few of his toughest villians hadnt he before he fought bane and thus got his back broken.
Bane beat Batman and broke his back in case no one remembers. Im surprised that you all mentioned "Batman beating Bane", most of the time, it is the other way around.
Bane being stupid? HE FOUND OUT WHO BATMAN WAS! Kingpin didn't even figure out who Spider-Man was.
I can't believe that the two would fight on with just pure strength. I have to think that Kingpin would use his cane, it has all sorts of gadgets.
Kingpin is strong, he works out. Bane, prior to getting Venom, was strong in his own right because he worked out (perhaps not as strong as Kingpin naturally though). I think Bane is 325 lbs without the Venom. Now, Kingpin is natural, Bane is using drugs. More than likely, Bane has the upper hand in physical strength. At the same time though, Kingpin has almost defeated a super soldier (Captain America) and he was created artificially (his strength and skills that is).
