There's a big difference between Alex Mercer during Prototype and Alex Mercer at the end of Prototype. He may have been affected by a tazer early on, but by the end of the first game, he regenerated from a nuke, something I don't think even Cole is capable of.

Speaking of durability, Cole is far from bullet-proof and can be brought down by two, sometimes even one well-aimed RPG. Mercer more-or-less walks off bullets and rockets and can create shields or armor to better protect from them. And I don't see any reason why Cole couldn't be harmed by Mercer's tendrils, so if Cole gets hit by that, he's done.

As for their mobility, I'd say they're both neck-and-neck. Cole can grind, hover, launch with ice, and use his lightning tether to climb buildings faster, and Alex can also glide, jump high, and can not only climb up buildings, but run up them.

Honestly, I'm not against Cole; I'd be rooting for him if it ever happened, but considering how powerful Alex Mercer is, I don't see many scenarios occuring other than this one: Cole gets absorbed, Alex Mercer gains electrical and ice powers.
