Spider-Man vs. Deadpool
Wade Wilson, a fellow hero. In this site's ratings, the classic Peter Parker Spider-Man wins 45% of their one-on-one fights, so it is close to a coin flip.
The verdict: A coin flip, with Deadpool by a hair
Fight rules: both fighters at their peak, no preparation, no allies, only their own powers and personal gear. A win is a knockout, a restraint they can't escape, or a forced surrender. The percentages are fan estimates, not official information.
Spider-Man's edge
Stronger and faster, and a web line can pull the teleporter off Wade's belt.
Deadpool's edge
A healing factor that has outlasted death, swords, guns, a teleporter and total unpredictability.
