Jack Bauer would take Bruce Wayne in a bare-knuckle fist fight.

Alright, given that this fight does not allow Bruce to use his bat suit, I shall not be citing any endurance/defense feats by Batman below. Thus, in spite of being in the bat suit, he could have very well pulled any of the below feats without it. FEATS: 1)Batman lifting a one thousand pound ceiling http://img21.imagevenue.com... - 2) Batman #681 Despite having to free himself from a straitjacket and benchpress a coffin lid through 600 pounds of loose soil that's suffocating him, Bats is able to break free from his own grave (literally). All this while not being in top shape to begin with due to having been subjected to drugs and Joker's new Venom without time to properly recover http://img376.imageshack.us... http://img368.imageshack.us... 3)Ripping out prison bars easily (Long Halloween #8) http://img219.imageshack.us... 4) Trained under the world's best martial artist, Richard Dragon http://allyoucanupload.webshots.com... http://allyoucanupload.webshots.com... 5) Stated to be a master of every martial art http://img171.imageshack.us... 6) Evades Sniper Rifle Fire from the Gotham City Police Department Swat team http://img21.imagevenue.com... http://img13.imagevenue.com... http://img45.imagevenue.com... http://img46.imagevenue.com... http://img23.imagevenue.com... 7) Avoiding Sub machine gun fire at close range http://img16.imagevenue.com... Jack Bauer may be impressive in his own series, but when compared to Bruce Wayne, it is quite clear that he does possess the physical prowess or martial arts knowledge necessary to even THINK about standing a chance Now in response to my opponent's contentions . . . ----->RE Contention one: Jack is much more used to pressure than Bruce: 1) I would request that my opponent explain as to how "being pressured to save the country compared to being pressured to save a city" would factor into the outcome of a bare knuckled fist fight? Quite frankly, this seems to be highly irrelevant. 2) To pacify my opponent, this argument of his is clearly a false dichotomy. Batman hasn't merely saved his city. We must keep in mind that as part of the Justice League, he helps save the galaxy of a regular basis. Now I don't know about you, but I'm pretty sure galactic threats trump country wide threats on a meager planet such as earth. ------------->RE Contention Two: Bruce relies too much on his Bat suit. In the comic books, Bruce is only forced to rely on his gadgets as well as any modifications he occasionally has to make to his Bat suit when being forced to tangle with the likes of Superman or Darkseid (both adversaries whom he has BEATEN, but we'll ignore that for the moment. There is plenty of reason to believe that Bruce could deal with a lightweight such as Bauer without use of the batsuit. Furthermore, without the batsuit, Bruce would actually be a FASTER fighter due to the sheer weight of the batsuit. To add, Bruce has trained under the world's best martial artist and learned every martial art LONG before he donned the Batsuit (which isn't even always armor. As depicted in the link where he lifts 1000 pounds, it is quite clear that he is wearing a suit made of tights). -------------->RE Contention Three: Jack only has 24 hours to stop his criminals whereas Bruce has days. 1) Like the first contention, I would have to say that this is highly irrelevant when it comes to determining who would win a mere fist fight. Stopping criminals within 24 hours and having a "bare knuckled fist fight" with a random contender are not quite the same. 2) As a matter of fact, Batman stops new sets of criminals daily and monitors his city physically every single day. He doesn't merely occasionally deal with stuff every couple of days as the instigator implies. In other words, false dichotomy. Overall, in a bare knuckle fist fight, the battle wouldn't even last a minute. Bruce Wayne knows every martial art, has developed his body to the point where his strength and agility is far above Olympic (hell, his feats could even be considered super human and has performed far more feats than Mr Bauer can even dream of. Bruce Wayne would dominate this. And that'll do it for now.
