Murdock is a highly skilled, self-taught boxer both due to watching his father compete and helping him train and prepare for his fights as well as having been very heavily and extensively trained in the ninja arts by Stick, a senior grandmaster and leader of the secret order The Chaste. Nick Fury, former director of S.H.I.E.L.D, commented that there are only a handful of individuals that know what Matt Murdock knows, referring to the Chaste. Stick taught and trained Matt both to control his powers and valuable fighting techniques with stealth, vanishing, to even life-energy(chi/ki)control. Murdock is well educated in the functioning of the human body as well as martial arts techniques that target pressure points enabling him to paralyze limbs of an individual's body or the entire body altogether. He has disabled eyesight and speech, induced pain, and has knowledge of pressure points including possibly inducing death. Murdock's fighting style is a very balanced fusion of Boxing with Ninjutsu, Jujutsu, Aiki-Jujutsu and other disciplines such as Savate, Krav Maga, Capoeira, Eskrima, Aikido, Greco-Roman Wrestling, and several styles of both Karate and Kung Fu to varying degrees. His skills have proven so exceptional as to enable him to easily defeat or stalemate some of the greatest fighters on Earth. Matt is easily one the greatest martial artists in the Marvel Universe. Matt's martial skills are at a point where he is probably ranked by Stick as at least 10th Dan(degree) black belt level in Ninjutsu being that that is the art that Matt seems to have been trained in almost exclusively by Stick. He has fought highly trained and skilled opponents such as Black Panther, Taskmaster, Iron Fist, Captain America, Sabretooth and Wolverine to standstills, even impaling Wolverine with a sword while the mutant was in a feral state due to brainwashing by the terrorists known as Hydra.

John Walker possesses frequently understated superhuman strength vastly greater than his predecessor Steve Rogers. He also possesses superhuman endurance as well as Olympic-class gymnastic skills. Walker is an excellent fighter learning Captain America's fighting style from the Taskmaster. He is a combat veteran with military combat experience in tactical and strategic planning and observations, special operations, and is highly proficient in the use of conventional firearms. He uses his shield defensively and as a weapon throwing it with great accuracy due to his superhuman strength.
His exact strength level wavers but has been compared to that of Spider-Man's (although it should be noted Walker has actually bested Spider-Man twice in a fight).
