Doakes VS The Ice Truck Killer (2-0-0)

I don't think Brian ever demonstrates being as skilled as Dexter. Although the series portrays them as comparable, and even Dexter is surprised by his ability as a killer, in action Brian doesn't seem that impressive, as Batista was able to defend himself even despite the stealth attack Brian made, and Dexter himself struggled with him to the point of almost letting him escape. Furthermore, there doesn't seem to be any statement indicating that he knows any martial arts or has been formally trained in combat, so I dare to give this advantage in skill to Doakes.

Fair enough, but could brian's LS and ap nulify Doakes' skill to a degree? since he defeated Dexter in small battle, while doakes was overpowered by him in the same season. Though I do admit the skill gap is on favor for doakes as he is former special ops and is he also able to kick fences for hours straight, which also implies better stamina.

Personally, I believe that Doakes should count for Class 1, but aside from that, Doakes could definitely handle Brian in terms of LS, and in AP, I don't see a standout advantage for either, so basically, it all depends on skill, which Doakes has

Yup i agree. This counts as a vote right?
 
A little late but I'd say I probably agree that Doakes is slightly more skilled, plus I'd say Brian and Doakes are roughly on the same level in terms of strength since they both scale to harming Dexter, with Doakes maybe being slightly stronger in terms of ap. So probably also leaning towards Doakes

However much like Dexter if he manages to get ahold of Doakes he's probably got a pretty good chance, however Doakes slightly better striking strength and skill probably give him the edge here
