Guys.... Ivan Drago was given a 5 year training montage...I think he is going to be punching around 6000 psi by the time he fights Nightwing with that kind of prep. That is not even including his other stats which have also been improved over the course of 5 years. Now because Nightwing lives in a far less realistic world. He can get a major boxing skill increase from Wildcat in 2 weeks that is more than enough to compete with Drago. He's already fast enough to dodge Drago but with his now new and improved boxing skills. He'll be able to dodge and punch Drago without too much effort at first. If Nightwing can avoid Drago and SOMEHOW find a way to put him down by boxing him he obviously wins. But all Drago needs to do is hit Nightwing once and it will be the Riley vs Butch Magnus fight from The Boondocks all over again. Drago was immensely durable to begin with. But now he's been training and taking super-roids for 5 whole years? Now he'll be even more durable than that and quicker too. This would obviously give him a stamina advantage as well.
Honestly after a lot of thought. I have to give this to Ivan Drago. This is a boxing match. Nightwing doesn't get to use pressure points or neck chops or quadruple flips or escrima sticks or kicks. He has to put him down with normal punches. And I don't think Nightwing could put down Drago with 5 years of preparation and training in the ring. I just don't see it happening. Some scans of Nightwing ko'ing someone with boxing punches that would be as durable and used to taking hits like Ivan Drago would be after 5 years would be great.
Either way my money is on Drago with 5 years of preparation.
Drago one shot him... when Dick show to be a expert boxer, he always fight with kicks, pressure points, chops, etc. he never fought like a pure boxer as Drago.
5 years? Drago be pumping in lots of steroids by that time and in the movie he punched with over 2 tons of force, i don't think Nightwing can replicate that.
