Just imagine being kicked in the crotch by a man made out of organic steel. I don't care how unbreakable your skin is, nobody can stand up to that. Cage will be curled up in the fetal position, crying for mommy.
Colossus' skin is alot tougher than steel is. Because it has survived getting logan's claws to it without giving in. So I say it's alot tougher than steel. Oh, and Colossus wins.
Not sure what's the deal with Cage. They have him at 20 or 25 tons but recently he beat Doc Samson and Wonder Man. He shouldn't beat Colossus, but he should have beat those guys neither.
If he can take those guys out he should take Colossus. Cage has held is own and had very good showings, against Hulk, Wonderman, Rhino, Wrecker and many others. since NA he is one bad mo fo.

I agree. But why put him at 25 tons. I know he is durable but not as durable as Colossus (who is solid metal). He only has the skin. (though titanium) it's not as strong as Colossus's.

Luke Cage's skin is supposed to be as tough as titanium maybe tougher. That being said although I'm a huge fan of Cage I'd say colossus wins he's much stronger and bigger.
Look at the stuff Cage has been going lately. First of all he has been upgraded to 25 tons, and his current feats would put him higher than that.
He has beaten Doc Samson and Wonderman, he has hung in there with Hulk, Ares and She-Hulk as well and done fine. My guess is we will see that he is even stronger when the next marvel handbook comes out.
I would say this would be a good fight and close too a stalemate.
This is really not even close. Power Man (as I still refer to him) started out at 3 tons and has been bumped to 20-25 tons. WHy he got bumped I will never understand, its not like he has undergone anymore treatments or is a mutant that could have mutated further. Colossus on the other hand started out at 70 tons as a teenager, and since becoming a man he is probably in the class 100 range. Even if Power Man is at 25 tons Colossus is at least 4 times his strength and is, in my estimation quicker than Power Man. Colossus NO contest.
Nowhere close to a stalemate. Colossus would steamroll him. This isn't a comic. The reason Luke's showings have been more impressive of late is because he is leading an Avengers team. Power against power, Colossus outstrips him easily. He is at least 4 times stronger physically, and several orders of magnitude more durable. I doubt Cage would be able to hurt Colossus, let alone beat him.
I call him Luke Cage and he got in increase in strength because he went through the same experiment/accident that gave him his powers in the first place a second time.
Throw all the statistics you want. They have fought similar opponents and faired the same. I would even say Cage has faired better against some, for example Hulk.

Cage almost lost to Thunderball and Daredevil beat him...

Didn't know he had undergone his prison treatment again why did he do it? Once again we come down to what I consider PIS. PowerMan is a popular character and is an avenger now, Do you really think a writer is going to show him get tossed around like a rag doll? Even with the supe up he is no where near even as strong as the Wrecker much less someone who is class 100 level.

He beat Thunderball, and when did DareDevil beat him? Was this after his upgrade
"Power Man (as I still refer to him) started out at 3 tons and has been bumped to 20-25 tons. WHy he got bumped I will never understand, its not like he has undergone anymore treatments or is a mutant that could have mutated further.
Power Man can withstand 150 lbs of TNT at a distance of 50 feet - Colossus 450 lbs of TNT (triple Power Mans resistance to injury)
Power Man' can resist .44 caliber handgun fire at a distance of 4 ft, while Colossus can resist a shot from a 110 millimeter Howitzer shell (even his eyes can deflect a .45 caliber bullet).
Throw in the fact that Colossus is faster, at least 4 times stronger, and better trained at fighting and you have a a55kicking.

this is why i dont like cage"
I loved him as Power Man. When he had 3 ton strength and was tough as %hit! He was more like a tougher stronger Cap/Daredevil/Black Panther type. Now they are turning him in to just another brick.
Luke Cage is an exceptional street fighter and was a gifted athlete before receiving superhuman abilities. He has also studied martial arts under Iron Fist's instruction, learning how to couple leverage with his strength in order to increase his combat effectiveness against opponents more powerful than he is.
I am not saying Cage wins, but going by his recent showings I say it will be a better fight than everyone else thinks. But whatever that is just me.
And I will say it again watch Cage's states improve in the next marvel handbook

Daredevil beat the whole Wrecking Crew.I also didn't say Cage lost.

Cage isn't as good a fighter as Colossus.Colossus and the other X-men have gone through extensive training.Some more than others but extensive training all the same.Cage didn't really even take advanatage of being the best friend of one of the best fighters in Marvel.

I am sure they will improve him. Marvel isn't going to stop F*ing things up until Power Man is class 100. Next thing you know he (like She-Hulk) will be fighting Elders of the Universe and winning. Marvel is getting so ridiculous

She-Hulk's book was rarely serious at the time she beat the Champion so I wouldn't blame Marvel for that.Her writer was doing alot of 4th wall breaking and silly stuff at that point.
"Do I really have to start posting cage scans in here"
No, that won't really help your case here. There's a reason everyone except you is going with Colossus. These are both very well-known characters, and the outcome is predictable.
