The Lizard vs Sabretooth
As far as I know Creed's strength was upgraded twice and his official level is between 10-25 ton. Even if we assume low end and it's 10, that's more than enough to hurt Lizard. He is a far superior fighter, has a far superior healing factor, and should have no trouble winning here. Sabes for the win. Give him adamantium and it's a solid win.
his official level is between 10-25 ton
Where did you get the official? I'm not saying I don't believe you, but all of the official stuff I can find only says 2. Also, Spider-Man unleashes 10 ton hits and Lizard shrugs them off, so it will be far from easy for Creed to inflict damage. Adamantium though, he should take a vast majority. Without it, I'm having trouble seeing Creed take a majority.
"sigh.... why are u referring to the classic non powered sabe who was ironfist enemy before his retcon and subsequent upgrades?
"
Because you've cited examples from that same version of Creed as well (VS Ms. Marvel). That version of Creed was still faster, stronger and more agile than Wolverine, though.

LOL. I still refuse to count the DD match as a loss/
he has had multiple upgrades to the point that he had high lvl durability without the need to regenerate via HF. his muscle mass density after his 1st upgrade by his son allowed him to take a rail gun blast to the chest without any discomfort.
now like i said his first appearances with spidey and ironfist is not the same sabe that was later written as logan's enemy. although he retained the same costume it was made obvious that he now had superior strength, durability and an actual HF all these were completely missing in his earlier battles.
so some of u guys need to stop trying to discredit sabe by throwing 30 yr references when he had no back story or powers.
sigh... to end this it is called a retcon overhaul of the char
"anyways.... ppl who think that creed has the basic human or peak strength that he was shown to possess in his 1st few yrs when he had no back story need to read some of sabe's mini series.

I'm well aware of all of this...But for him to take a railgun shot to the chest and not even be phased, is HORRIBLE writing. For example, we've seen Deadpool inflict heavy damage on him with submachine guns, and in one instance, an RPG. What keeps Creed up is his healing factor helping him swifty recover from these wounds.
"You used on too, in the fight with Ms. Marvel.

"it was not horrible writing at the time since it was shown right after he was upgraded to show the lvl of durability he had just acquired. if anything it is horrible continuity and editing that is to blame that writers cant keep track of char's and their abilities.
"
....Sounds just like piss poor writing to me. Do you have a scan of this feat? I haven't read Sabre's mini in ages.
and this is without even bringing his strength into account which......by......the way.......is not........ 2 tons!!! or any where close
in the same mini that those scans came from sabe walked by his sports car and slapped it out of his way with a backhand that sent it flying through a brick wall...
in the same mini he was ran over by birdie in a car the same car that he stopped dead in in its tracks b4 birdie put it in reverse and took off.
here is the other scan of the rail gun.
well lets see before his upgrades once he was reassigned to wolverines enemy and was part of the muaraders he was able to flex out of an iron jackedt that completely enveloped him.
he was also downed by a single optic blast from Cyc in the sewer ;)

I've heard, which honestly sounds like bad writing. (making him out to be TOO strong)
What happens after that?
also their are more example of sabe's strength he has also knocked out rouge with a single swipe to the face.. and held her tight and used her as a shield pressed against her body....
the optic blast incident was cyke focusing his blast into a condense beam right to the noggin a shot that sabe wanted to be hit with in the 1st place in order to try to later escape once in police custody he goated cyke into taking that shot he wanted it. besides not many ppl can take a shot from cyke like that in the 1st place. it is what it is poor story telling all around in comics when it comes right down to it.
Regardless of old feats, I assume we're going with the most recent, pre-death version of Creed...Who was shown to be slightly phased by Black Panther's hits, a shield toss by Bucky, and stabs and gunshots from Deadpool. There is no doubt in my mind that in this bout, Lizard is going to dish out some heavy damage with his claws, (possibly) teeth and tail. Creed clearly has the technical edge, but unlike Wolverine, he has no effective means of quickly bringing down Connor's, nor has pre-death shown any strength feats that would put him on the same level as Parker, who has admitted he has to use his full force against Lizard, and it still doesn't pack much of a punch. I find it very hard to believe Creed will be able to land fatal hits with his claws due to Lizard's high durability. Lizard, on the other hand, should have no real issue with harming Creed and packing the strength to eventually KO or even incapacitate him. However, if Creed has adamantium, he should take a vast majority.
besides that fact that sabe's durability with bullets at times can be inconsistent he doesnt have to worry much about it here. sabe blunt force trauma is also up their and i would wager better the lizard.
he has bn able to ignore and tank spidey's best kicks and punches and hold him down b4 his various upgrades and has taken better hits from ppl above spidey in strength and durability so lizards strength isnt going to matter much here either.
also sabe's regeneration from what i have seen in various comics and upgrades is far above what lizard has demostrated,,, he can easily whether lizard's best shots for gawds sake's sabe has taken down the hound in xforce and was stated by forge to be the teams powerhouse.
I'm giving this one to Lizard. Lizard's stronger, faster, -- depending on if Connor's is in control -- smarter, has great durability AND a healing factor of his own. Sabretooth's got some strength and durability and DEFINITELY has a healing factor all the same, but unlike Lizard he's got nothing to really hurt Lizard, where as Lizard's got the bigger guns to pack NASTY blows. If only Creed had adamantium claws like Logan does, then he'd stand a much better shot.
after the house of M crap consistency went out the window since at the time sabe had an adamantium skeleton that was never explained in the story with blk panther with how logan was able to cut his hand off......
He clearly no longer had adamantium, which was unfortunately never explained.
besides that fact that sabe's durability with bullets at times can be inconsistent he doesnt have to worry much about it here. sabe blunt force trauma is also up their and i would wager better the lizard.
The only real blunt force damage he'll take is from Lizard's tail. The rest should be cutting damage, which we all know he is not immune from. (Wolverine & Deadpool are perfect examples of this) Regardless, a 12 ton hit will hurt him, it may not KO him, but to say it will have no impact on him is false.

That was in one story...And it seemed like Punisher was able to remain in the melee too, when clearly, he shouldn't have been able to.
also sabe's regeneration from what i have seen in various comics and upgrades is far above what lizard has demostrated,
No where did I agrue the differences in their healing factors.
" Sabe's natural claws can rend and tear steel as has superhuman strength himself backing his swipes that is good enough to ko rogue. -_-When was this? If it's not current Sabretooth then we can only assume he's not able to do that now... though she no longer has Ms. Marvel's powers either, so... =p

Back in the day...During the Mutant Massacre. IIRC, he also threw a weight at her, lol.

Whoa, whoa whoa...Hold on a second. I can't help but feel like that isn't 616...What issue?

Not to mention she seems already weakened by something prior to Sabretooth manhandling her." @k4tzm4n said:

" it was an old storyline when bishop still wanted to kill gambit b/c he though he was the traitor. it is 616 i just dont know the issue and she wasnt depowered or she be dead from the slice.Well then there was something messing with her, because normal Rogue from that time period would rip his arms off and beat him senseless with them.

I think you're reading PIS and soaking it up too much. Rogue vs. Sabretooth = SLAUGHTER, the same way a BONE CLAW version of Logan should be smeared across the street by Ms. Marvel. =|
without adamantium sabes has no chance especially if lizard has connors IQ. no matter how dirty sabertooth fights, lizard is too tough, too fast and waaay to strong.
btw, crocs always beat lions. lion claws and teeth cant pierce croc hide.
" not remotely true.... you guys are just seriously under estimatin his strength and claw power.. even logan has managed to gut the original ms marvel with his bone claws. no reason sabe with his superior strength couldnt do the same to rogue.Logan gutting Ms.Marvel with bone claws is bullsh#t just like Sabretooth standing a chance against Rouge with Ms.Marvel's powers.Ms.Marvel beat Sabretooth extremely easy.The only reason he stood any sort of chance is because she hurt herself.
"
connors may not be a fighter, but he's a genius. it would help to a point, but you're right, lizard is more dangerous as pure animal
