Talk:Knuckles VS Donkey Kong/@comment-27822848-20150729052927/@comment-2255534-20150729054454

I'd say Knuckles has what he needs to get right up to DK. With his better running speed, gliding, and shovel claw, he has the superior movements in the air, on the ground, and even in the ground.

And how can you really say that the coconut gun stops the speed advantage? Any gun user will admit that a moving target is not easy to hit. Knuckles is also able to smash through stone easily. I doubt he'd have any troubles punching a coconut.

With a better balance of speed and strength, as well as being better practiced fighter, I honestly believe that Knuckles can get around what would otherwise be a much stronger opponent.

And I'm afraid that I do have to question DK's intelligence given that he can't seem to be brain washed. Can't control what isn't there I guess. XD
