Which are the top 10 fighters in the entire DC Universe from your point of view? And who would you rank as the best? Some reasons/ feats as justification would suffice.

It is conceivable however, that a pupil can surpass the master. Were your choices in order? If not, who's your No 1?

Constatine Drakon. "

Hes the only person on DCEarth that can make Connor Hawke look like a total tool and humilate him
Cassie had trouble fighting Connor while he was trying not to fight back and Connor stalemated Shiva

Drakon is number 1 IMO

Just the first choice Karate Kid then in no order..

#12 Posted by Johnny_Blazed (1114 posts) - 3 years, 10 months ago - Show Bio

Yeah but I assume as in DCU he means the current DCU timeline... Karate Kid isnt from the base time line...

If ya count him then ya hes number 1

Otherwise Drakon FTW I think he would school Batgirl also

Connor gave him hell and Richard complemented him on his fighting ability

Drakon treats him like the fat kid who gets picked last in gym class

Deathstroke isnt that great a fighter..hes good don't get me wrong but its because of his physical stats and reflexes

There seems to be a general agreement for the following:

Karate Kid, Batgirl, Batman, Drakon, Richard Dragon, Bronze Tiger, Lady Shiva, Connor Hawke.

It's part of his fighting style though. Batgirl p.e. is great, but would people claim her to beat so many opponents around here without her movement reading ability? It's just part of her, what gives her an edge. Same with Slade.

hmmm you have a point but...

Cassie actually trained to get her abilities ... Slade got his abilities through a special procedure ....

#33 Posted by geraldthesloth (33313 posts) - 3 years, 10 months ago - Show Bio

Cassie has metahuman speed. and she's allowed to be on lists

Deathstroke should too.

#34 Posted by Johnny_Blazed (1114 posts) - 3 years, 10 months ago - Show Bio

I really don't think Slade should be on the list... His enhancements give him an unfair advantage

Well, you can't blame a person for having them; it's like getting mad at a Spider-man vs Batman thread, because Spidey accidentally got bit by a spider and has powers, while Bats does not.

for one, Huntress has survived against WonderWoman at full strength (did not win but was also not defeated) and you really think all the Training an Amazon must endure is easier than a boxers?

martial arts

Use martial art in a Sentence

–noun

any of the traditional forms of Oriental self-defense or combat that utilize physical skill and coordination without weapons, as karate, aikido, judo, or kung fu, often practiced as sport.

Also, martial art.

Related forms:

martial artist, noun

I think boxing originated from Europe .... although this online dictionary isnt very reliable so it may not be too accurate

But yeah I think Wildcat should be in the top 10.. as far as pure fighting skill goes

I don't think you even remember the episode then, since it was actually hawkgirl and vixen fighting wonder woman, while huntress ran off to find roulette.
