Sandman can just start hitting Gaara with his own sand, he will get to experience his sand coffin. Sandman controls every bit of sand in his body it's ilogical to think Gaara could easily take control of it. Sandman can just take away all his sand then all it would take is a couple of punches if not one to k.o him, there is nothing Gaara can do.

I would just like to add that in the movies, Sandman was bringing his fist down on spidey three times and he didn't die. So enough with the whole "Sandman kills Gaara with one ounch" crap. It's getting annoying now.
Also, Gaara has his sand shield. That thing has been protecting Gaara from a lot of blows (especially to the head). If everyones favorite friendly neighborhood superhero can take a few big punches from Sandman, so can Gaara.
I ain't exactly saying who will win here, I just wanted add what I know.
Bringing up that failure of a movie really doesn't work even if the movie wasn't so terrible...
Then there is the fact Spidey > Gaara is speed, and ability to dodge. Gaara's slow compared to any Narutoverse Ninja. It's his sand that is so fast. He's never had to worry about speed.

First of all, movies aren't canon, movie Sandman did not have the feats of comics. He did not seem as strong.
Besides, Spiderman has shown to be stronger and more physically durable than Gaara, without the sand shield and sand armor, he is pretty defenseless when it comes to taking damage, when the Chidori hit him he was screaming in pain and agony.
Ahh give Gaara a break about the screaming in pain...It's the second time he ever bled and like the third time in 12 years to ever feel physical pain. Besides he does have the sand shield and armor along with replacement. So he'll be able to last for more than one hit I'd think.

The armor was cracked by Lee..the shield wasn't. Lee punched faster than the sand could block but not fast enough to hit Gaara before he was stopped. And still Gaara's got stronger shields than what he was using against Lee. That was just normal sand defense. He's shown thicker ones. Against the grass ninja, against Sasuke, against Kimimaro, and against Deidara. Also replacement will keep him alive for a while. Not saying he can win..just that he's not going to be killed in the first attack.

Okay about Lee breaking the sand shield and armor, Lee did that when he was in hyper mode and that increased his strength and speed that made the sand armor break. An unhyper moded Lee couldn't destroy his sand armor.
Look at the scan I posted first page. Lee broke through the sand shield slightly.
And the sand armor is stronger than the shield.
The one against the grass shield WAS his normal shield.
Sasuke also went right through that shield with Chidori, did he not? One attack will break through the shield, the next attack will break Gaara.
And all those stronger shields have to be formed by gathering layers of sand around him, Sandman simply by standing in sand will be absorbing it if he wants.
When I said one punch, I meant all it would take it one punch to kill Gaara.
Lee was moving faster than Gaara's sand. The sand was able to stop his attacks before they hit Gaara but not block them. If he was able to punch through the sand he'd have hit Gaara with the first attack.
The normal shield is what he used against Lee...If I recall what he used against the grass ninja was thicker. As for Chidori. Not only does it turn the persons hand into a knife it's back by the speed of the user. Neither have anything to do with Sandman punching it. And Gaara's sand is ground and Chidori is lightning. Lightning beats ground.
Also Gaara can make those shields faster than Sandman can attack. They may be regular sand but Sandman isn't going to suddenly absorb the sand that was used while while he's in the midst of punching. Maybe after he hits it but by then Gaara would have stopped the hit.
Sandman is going to have to work for that punch though assuming one punch would kill him. I think it would take at least two if he's actually able to kill Gaara with a hit. One to hurt him and destroy the armor and the second to kill.

Irrelevant because A) Sandman's attacks are nowhere near on the level of a city destroying bomb. And B) The sand was also spread thin across the entire blast radius,and still did not break. Logic dictates that anything spread over a long distance will have a weaker integrity then something that is not spread thin but is concentrated. Gaara will not have to spread his sand defense nearly that far apart to defend himself against Sandman's punches. That being the case, if his shield was concentrated it should be able to easily absorb the force of his punches.
Which doesn't really matter because he can enact the shield incredibly fast, and he won't need a shield that strong to protect himself from his blows since Sandman's blows aren't as strong as a bomb that size. He wouldn'tneed to use nearly a much chakra.
You're right. All I had remembered was that there was a big ass explosion.
Sandman controls his sand in the same manner, does he not? I've never seen Sandman's sand act on it's own will. He takes inanimate sand and manipulates it around him to do various things. Not sure about that exactly though. Irregardless, can you prove that Sandman can resist a chakra fueled attack on his control of the sand? It is essentially his supernatural control versus Gaara's.
This is assuming that A) Sandman gets to all of that sand before Gaara takes control of his share. B) Sandman can build himself up that high and still function normally. You'd have to provide proof for that, as he's fought on a beach before and never done that. C) Gaara doesn't just float higher up or (For the lulz) He decides to just float over the water. lolZ.
You and I have been over this before, man.
Live.
And another possibility: Is there any reason to think that Gaara can not control sand that is wet? If there isn't I don't see why he can't just use the equivelent of a sand avalanche that's made entire out of sand from the water. It'd essentially be a tsunami of wet sand which would in turn weaken Sandman's sand composition and he'd turn into mud... and we've all seen what happens when he turns into mud.
You are basically saying that Sandman will be controlled by Gaara? I don't see why, in terms of control i'd have to think that being made of sand>Controlling sand. Sandman can integrate sand into himself and it essentially becomes a part of him. I mean, could Gaara take control of Shukaku (if for some odd reason they fought)? I'd have to think that Shukaku's control of his own sand would supersede any outside control from a sand-user, and it seems the same with Sandman.
