@WhoWouldWin13 Hmmm good one.

Both characters have special forces training, with Plissken being an Army Lieutenant in Special Unit Black Light, while Punisher was in MARSOC (marine special forces), as well as receiving training from Navy SEALS, Airborne school and Australia's SAS. Punisher

@WhoWouldWin13 And Plissken are war veterans (Punisher fought in Vietnam, Plissken in World War 3 against the Soviet Union and China). It seems hard to figure out just who would emerge victorious, but there are some things to note:

1, while Snake has some good H2H combat moves,

@WhoWouldWin13 Punisher is well known as a master H2H combat killing machine, having mastered numerous disciplines (including Krav Maga, Ryu Jujutsu, Ninjutstu, Muay Thai, etc).

Along with this, Punisher is far larger, being over 6 feet tall and built like a freight train. In some

@WhoWouldWin13 depictions, he looks like a bodybuilder (which surprisingly would inhibit punching power. Bodybuilders generally are too muscular to generate their full potential for punching power (the biomechanics of it are too off for that). In some sources, it is even stated that he is at

@WhoWouldWin13 peak human physicality, which in comic books is FAR beyond that of an Olympic athlete. Catwoman has peak human physicality, and she can press 800 pounds over her head (No 300-400 pound weightlifter has been able to pull that off). Batman is likewise at peak, and he can bench 1100

@WhoWouldWin13 and hold half a ton over his head.

Thus, Punisher has a serious advantage in close quarters, and with peak human physicality, he'll be able to move faster as well.
Plus, in the Marvel universe, his reflexes are second to none in the Marvel universe. He's also taken shots from

@WhoWouldWin13 opponents with super strength, and survived explosions that would kill most humans.

This, I conclude...

@WhoWouldWin13 SNAKE PLISSKEN DOESN'T ESCAPE THE PUNISHER!!!!!!!!!
