I think the difference between the speeds of Drakon and Gorgon by comparison is Drakon just has more feats. I think by comparison, what little Gorgon has done with his speed is enough to say he can at least match Drakon, or the gap is so little it doesn't make a difference. It's not often you see Wolverine, someone who has defeated and tagged speedsters in the past, get blitzed before his senses can pick up something. Gorgon's deflected multiple rounds of machine gunfire like a cakewalk. His showing against Slingshot, another legitimate speedster, showed his speed again.
I think he can take round 1 for a solid majority. Like K4tz brought up, Drakon does get cocky. Tomi can be pretty arrogant himself at times, but he generally follows through with his mission when it comes down to it. He is also no stranger to being willing to let himself get hurt to prove his end goal.
Round two is another story. Both guys are fast, but Drakon doesn't have a healing factor. Between his telepathy, speed, skill, and healing, Gorgon could put up a fight and I'd say possibly take a majority if he can down Drakon. Slade is the main problem. One thing I like about the Gorgon is just his ability to completely turn something around. Like when he got blasted with the RPG and then jumped by a decked out Wolverine and Elektra, he turned the tide on them with a wooden beam, pinned Logan to a wall with a sword, and then decapitated a bunch of SHIELD agents almost as fast as he had been attacked. His fight against the Secret Warriors is another example to me. When he was busy fighting them, Yo-Yo wasn't even in direct combat with the Gorgon while he was busy fighting some of them, and then tried blitzing him, and mid blitz he sort of counter blitzed her, drew his sword, and sliced her arms off. I think he can hold off Slade and Drakon, and just sometime during the fight when it seems like they have the upper hand, Tomi pulls out one of those attacks and deals with them.
