This fight appalls me. Iron Man would destroy Captain America. If we are talking about a straight up fight in which the winner is the one who kills his opponent then Iron Man would win right away. First of all Iron Man has enough strength to lift 100+ tons and at one point lifter a 16,000 ton nuclear warhead. The heaviest thing Captain America can lift is 1,000 pounds. That is a huge difference. In the speed department Iron Man still beats Captain America; at max flight he can fly faster than mach ten!!! His velocity is at five miles per second! Cap wouldn't be able to hit him. In durability Iron Man still wins, his energy shields and his armor allow him to survive nuclear blasts, rockets, torpedo, and high caliber bullets. A hit from cap would not effect him at all. Also if Captain throws his shield, Iron Man could catch it (due to faster reflexes). Don't get me started on energy projection, obviously Iron Man crushes that. Now in terms of intelligence and using the environment, obviously Iron Man since he can access satellites and see everything around him with his x-ray vision(see extremist). In terms of fighting Iron Man would dodge/withstand every hit from Cap and one full powered punch/repulser ray would drill a hole in Cap. Now why has Iron Man not killed Cap before? He hasn't because he wasn't trying to kill him, just arrest him.
