Bond vs. Bourne, who'd win?

Only “normal” gadgets allowed (so no missiles form cars or Little Nellies).

A one on one fight between Bond and Bourne - who would win?

And if you feel like you must, you can pick which Bond you’d want to fight.

I’ll wait a while with my pick.

This was obviously meant for Cafe Society, so calling all mods! Please move it there.

Bourne vs. Craig would be more interesting. I’d say that Bourne is faster, but Craig is stronger. Tough call.

Bourne vs. Brosnan is no contest. Bourne all the way. He’d probably win against any other other Bonds as well.

Moving to cafe in, 3, 2,…
but per the OP. Batman, if he’s prepared.

Bourne tends to fight from a distance, so he’d generally win. Hand to hand, I think Bourne would lose against Connery’s Bond and Craig’s Bond, but win against Moore’s and Lazenby’s; I don’t know about Brosnan’s. Call it a draw overall.

Bourne, every time. He manages to mess up the enemy with no resources.

You will find Bond in an alley somewhere.

Bourne’s on the verge of finishing Bond when Bourne gets shot by a woman Bond seduced earlier in the movie.

…and then falls into a large body of water and swims away.

Like previously stated, I’d give Connery, Craig and Dalton one up on Bourne, while he would kick Brosnan’s, Lazenby’s and Moore’s ass.

And even if Bourne tried to take Bond out at a distance, there’s no way he’d get away from him. A wounded Bond is lethal!

Bourne is quicker, but if CraingBond managed to get ahold of him, Bourne would die by his own hand. CraigBond would be pinning him down, and holding his arm and saying: “Why are you punching yourself? ::bash bash:: Why are you punching yourself? ::bash, bash::”

“That’s what you do when life hands you a chance to be with someone special. You just grab that brownish area by its points and you don’t let go no matter what your mom says.”

Stranger

Pathetically, I have actually given thought to this question. I think it comes down to the fact that Bond is trained to be a spy; Bourne is trained to be a killer. Bond is one dangerous dude, but Bourne had his entire psyche broken down and rebuilt to make him the ideal assassin. When you need a grand criminal enterprise toppled, Bond is your man. When you need to take someone out, Bourne can handle anybody, out-thinking and out-improvising even people who are faster and stronger than he is.

What he said. I just finished watching the Bourne trilogy, and I have to go with Jason over James (all the James’, except maybe Craig’s Bond, who I haven’t seen).

Bourne beats up people with ball point pens and magazines. Bond needs Q if he wants to wipe his ass.

Bourne over any Bond, any day of the week.

Bauer wins if Chloe is prepared.

Close fighting? No gadgets?

Bourne would put Bond (any of them) down in under 5 seconds. He’d only need 2 seconds, but he’d play with him a little.

We’re talking Bourne as played by damon, right? Not by Richard Chamberlain, because then even Miss Moneypenny would kick his ass.

Bond: “Who are you and why won’t you stop killing me to explain your overly elaborate plan in detail so I can…<ack>?”

Bourne as played by Matt Damon would wreck Bond, as Tangent says. Bourne is a dirty in-close fighter.

Lazenby, Moore and Dalton’s Bonds could not stand their own against Bourne, at all. They’d be toast.

Connery’s Bond was surprisingly strong. Victor after a long, hard fight.

Craig’s Bond would give Bourne a run for his money and might lose only on stamina, because Bourne has a ten year age advantage on him.

Brosnan’s Bond fought dirty/smart, he’d win if he had something to hand to use as a weapon, even if it wasn’t a weapon per se. If it was just the two of them, nothing but their own bodies, Bourne takes him.
