Can MCU Captain America defeat Edward Cullen and survive the battle with him?

[Tyrannoraptor]

Since Captain America armed with his circular Vibranium shield has survived a beating from Quicksilver, reacted to gunfire and can keep with Mark 46 Iron man who flies at the speed of mach 46.8 and if he were to fight Edward Cullen, couldn't he be able to stand up against this vampire?

If not, why wouldn't Captain America be able to do something against Edward Cullen if he were to fight him?

Are you suggesting that Cap can keep up with speedsters who can move at Mach 47?

As an aside, this board DOES make a distinction between 'travel speed' and reaction speed (assuming the travelling doesn't so much require reaction; running through a city at lightspeed WOULD require such reaction speeds, flying through space at lightspeed wouldn't).

But what i've meant is that Captain America does this by merely combat speed and reactions, not by travelling at literally lightspeed!

By your own admission Quicksilver beat up Cap because he's a lot faster.

Edward is not just a lot faster than Cap, but he's also A LOT stronger than Quicksilver.

Edward can blitz Cap to shreds no problem.

as much as i love mcu cap, he's gonna get merc'd by ed. too fast and too strong.

even if cap is a bullet timer, which is a discussion for another time, ed moves waaaaay too fast for him to do anything but get punched to death.

as you yourself said in the OP, cap got beaten by quicksilver. the only reason he really survived that fight is because while pietro has super speed, he doesn't have super strength. (honestly can't remember him doing anything in AOU to suggest he has anything but standard human levels of strength). and as dark has already said, ed is a LOT stronger than pietro.

But how fast do you think Edward Cullen really is as compared to a gunshot even if Captain America is a bullet timer?!

if cap was as fast as you believe him to be, he would've at the very least, dodged QS and the very most, tagged him.

as mentioned before, ed is way stronger than QS. so what do you think would've happened if cap got hit by him in that same situation?

That's my point.

Are you saying that Cap has reaction time such that he can not only react to stuff moving at Mach 47, but also move his body -- in combat -- to actively fight at that speed?

Because if he could, the elevator fight sequence would have lasted ~ 0.01 seconds, as Cap hypersonic blitzes everyone in the elevator. His fight with any hero who hasn't shown that kind of reaction speed would have ended in an instant as he hypersonic blitzes them. Etc.

Cripes, Quicksilver isn't shown to be that fast in the Avengers. At all. Stuff is still moving around him, if slowly, when he's moving at superspeed, and Mach 47 is almost 9 miles in a second.

Edit: he's fast enough to see bullets flying in slow motion -- which seems to be his peak speed -- but not 47 times faster than a pistol bullet.

I'm not sure even Tony is Mach 47 lol. When does he do that!?

Fastest he ever goes (probably) is when he diverts power and catches Maw as he tries to leave Earth orbit.
