Regardless, since this is a straight fight without weapons, planning won't be terribly important. This even plays to Caps strengths since he doesn't rely on gadgets to the degree Batman does, and has regularly held his own against people who physically outclass him without his shield. I think the fight would be about even for a long time, but Caps enhanced physical abilities would give him the edge in the drawn out fight.

Also with regard to Sephiroth1999AD's comment, crossovers don't mean much. They're pretty much fan service and completely at the whim of the writer. Heck, if you want to get into that, Batman even said in the Avengers/JLA crossover a few short years back that Cap could beat him, but it would take a long time.
Very well said
