I feel like WS could eventually beat Cage into a ten count. The main problem is Bucky landing enough unanswered headshot at the right angle to stun cage enough he can't really defend himself. I'd back Bucky right now simply due to the fact his fights imply he's several orders of magnitude more skilled, but he has to be careful. Luke might get more durability and I won't go down from a one-sided beating ala Diamondback in Defenders though.
Bucky's one huge disadvantage is his aggressive fighting style. While skilled, he always opts for overwhelming force. Against Luke that might cost him.
Is Bucky more skilled than Luke? Sure, but "several orders of magnitude" more skilled? I don't know about that. Bucky is certainly in far superior when it comes to speed and agility.
In the Netflix series, it was established that Luke was a law enforcement officer at one point. He was a boxer as a youth. He also fought (pre super powers) in the "gladiator" matches inside Seagate prison and beat whoever they put in front of him. WS is more skilled but Luke is no slouch.
What kind of effect would Bucky's strikes with his non metal fist and legs have on Luke? If the answer is not much, then his metal arm would be the only weapon that could do any damage to Luke and he would be essentially fighting Cage with one arm.
There is one, colossal, huge difference between Diamondback and the Winter Soldier though.
Diamonback's suit gave him superhuman durability comparable to Cage's.
Cage gives the Winter Soldier one solid punch and he's out.
WS has way more experience then Luke Cage. And he has killed people more powerful then cage
Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

A) That's mostly comic Winter Soldier, not MCU Winter Soldier,
B) most/all of those people are not stronger than Cage in direct melee combat (though if this was the Fox X-Men version, I guess that would depend on what JFK's mutant power was), and
C) most of those kills were assassinations or people who weren't bulletproof.

So Defenders had a Luke VS Danny fight. It was basically Luke no selling everything Danny tried while Danny dodged around him. Luke only really landed shots when Danny was in the middle of hitting him. When Danny brought out the iron fist, he was able to send Luke flying down an alleyway and into a shutter door. It hurt Luke but he got back up.
