Luke Cage vs US Agent

Secret Invasion has ended.  Luke is distraut over the loss of his child.  US Agent asks him if he's registered, but Luke doesn't want to hear it.  "Back the f*** up you lame a** cap wanna be"  "Nobody talks to the Agent like that!"  "I'm gonna teach you a leason in respect for MY shield son."  "I'm not your son a** h***!"  Fight takes place in an abandoned subway station underground.

Though Cage is more durable on the outside, his insides are not.  Plus Agent is a much better fighter.  Throwing that vibranium shield with his strength should hurt him.  Agent for the win.

Cage wins!

Agent can't do any real damage. Cage has taken blows recently from the Wrecker (who is stronger than the Agent) and his crowbar (which is stronger than Agent's shield).

ain't the shield made of adamantium, cage's only weakness?

No Vibranium. Cage wins this the strength and toughness gets him the win, if it were Steve Rogers i might say steve but US agent aint quite Steve."

U.S Agent.EASILY.

i was going to say US agent cause of his fighting ability and strength, but you beat me to it.

yuppers

"US Agent should win here

joint dislocation, chokes, he also has super strength and actual fighting ability above cage he was trained to be captain americas replacement which cap help train... with a vibe shield he can still do some damage

"joint dislocation, chokes, he also has super strength and actual fighting ability above cage he was trained to be captain americas replacement which cap help train... with a vibe shield he can still do some damage"

well that is your opinion... this is a one on one fight that u.s. agent should be able to handle without distraction... and you are seriously underestimating by calling him a second rate cap fighter...

think of the damage a vibe shield can do with and arm of a ten tonner behind it

Cage has taken down heavy weights like Mr Hyde and the Wrecker. I can't see a 10 ton lifter being able to beat him, even with his second rate Cap skills.  He wasn't doing that great against the Wrecking Crew and they are much weaker than the Wrecker."

the wrecker is not 100 tonner i believe his bio has him listed as a 40 tonner.... i could be wrong

1.Daredevil beat the whole Wrecking Crew including the Wrecker and he's not even classed.

2.Daredevil also almost made Mr.Hyde cry and Captain America completely destroyed Hyde.Neither of them are classed.

3.Cage weighs less than a ton and has been shown to be hurt badly by being throw into things

what makes the wrecker dangerous is his crowbar

If DD beat the WC, it was a early comic around the time that Iron Fist did it. Since then, they have gotten strong enough to beat Herc to near death once. And USAgent did have a hard time with them. So your DD ref that didn't help him.

But you are right about Hyde. For a 50 tonner, he sure does get beat by weaklings."

No..Daredevil just recently beat the Wrecking Crew.

The Wrecking Crew beating Herc near death is PIS

U.S Agent having a hard time with them when Daredevil,Iron Fist,& Cap didn't would also be PIS.

Spider-Man was beating Cage around.
U.S. Agent is just as strong as Spider-Man... And much more skilled.

wrecker can only lift 40tons,not 100tons and they needed goliath and mr hyde combined to beat hercules to near death,not the wrecking crew only,strongest one there is

"Spider-Man was beating Cage around.

at that time,spiderman was 10tons and luke cage was ten tons,now,luke can lift 25tons now

"at that time,spiderman was 10tons and luke cage was ten tons,now,luke can lift 25tons now"

Well, he didn't "beat" Cage, but he had control over him the whole fight.

I agree with Alpha.

This is an interesting battle and a lot closer than most people credit it to be.

Cage
Strength: Can lift 25 tonnes.
Endurance: Capable of fighting for a couple of hours before beginnning to tire.
Reaction Time and Agility: Athelete level for both. Has shown some acrobatic skill in the past.
Durability: Superhuman. Has taken blows from beings stronger than him without serious injury. His skin, described as steel or titanium hard, can still be cut by materials harder than his skin (which is not limited to adamantium but would include certain super alloys and vibranium) when backed by sufficient force. His skin is less durable to energy attacks and as such he can still be cut by an overpowrered surgical laser. 
Intelligence: Above average.
Fighting Skill: Highly skilled fighter, employing mostly streetfighting techniques but has been tutired in some martial arts.
Weapons / Others: None

US Agent
Strength: Can lift approx 10 tonnes.
Endurance: Capable of fighting for a couple of hours before beginnning to tire.
Reaction Time and Agility: Peak human level for both. Extremely talented at acrobatics - developed as part of his Capt America training
Durability: Enhanced human. Has taken blows from beings as strong as himself without major injury. However this enhanced durability does not extend to edged or projectile attacks.
Intelligence: Average.
Fighting Skill: Extremely highly skilled fighter. Taught to emulate the fighting style of Capt America. Therefore he is conversant in Judo, Boxing and Wrestling styles and their blending to an almost unique individual style (that of Capt America).
Weapons / Others: Weras a chainmail and kevlar uniform that enhances his durability. Additionally uses a vibranium shield to parry attacks (with it absorbing vast amounts of kinectic energy), to offer improved hand to hand damage (blunt attacks and use of the shields edge) and ranged attack options (thrown shield) that don't need to fired directly from US Agent (bouncing it off other objects).

Even though Cage's internal organs are not as durable as his skin, he has taken body blows from beings a lot stronger than him without any major damage.
Although US Agent is the better fighter, Cage's ability is not easily dimissible.
Should Cage get his hands on US Agent or manage to grab his shield then this fight could quickly turn against US Agent as Cage then has more advatages. I think Cage is smart enough to try and catch the shield should it be thrown at him, even if it means taking a hit to rob US Agent of this weapon.
US Agent has also not always been shown in the best light considering his abilities and skills but he can be short tempered and reckless.

Overall, I would say the the fight could go either way but for as much a reason as I like him more, I am going to back Cage for the win.

US Agent should win. His strength combined with his masterful combat skills and the Vibranium shield should mean he can exploit pressure points on Cage with ease. Furthermore, the list above said he is vulnerable to strong metals weilded with sufficeint force...vibranium being one of them....10 tons of pressure on one point with the Vibranium sheild should be able to deal a lot of damage....in the same way Spiderman was able to knock out the Rhino, stupid as it was.
