Joseph vs Luke Cage: This is really hard for me to get a clear winner on this one. On the one hand Luke is clearly the more durable and strong combatant, being able to take bullets, explosions, etc. and come out just fine. His elastic-like skin makes it almost impossible to get through his defenses. On the other, there's Joseph, who has shown that his quick-wit and Hamon experimentation are very valuable assets in battle. Joseph is a master of psyching out opponents and figuring out a way to exploit them. He's been able to take down immortal beings that outclass him by a vast margin. In terms of the warriors themselves, I would say that Joseph is clearly the superior man, being smarter and more creative than Luke by a reasonably large margin. But Luke definitely has durability and strength on his side. I don't think Joseph can really get through Luke and his defenses, and i'm not too convinced that Luke could get past all of Joseph's tricks and still be able to really get a knockout blow. To me, this is a stalemate.Edge: Even

Caesar vs Danny: I gotta give this one to Caesar. Danny's chi and Iron Fist are pretty powerful, but i'm just not impressed with Danny as a warrior himself.He lacks experience, and the ability to do much more than as the author stated "punch stuff really hard". Caesar has been shown to posess an insane amount of durability, being able to survive the dreaded Holy Sandstorm, even if he did die shortly after. The Iron Fist can't be overused or Danny will be unable to use it at all, and he'll be depleted of chi, making him unable to use any of his other abiliites. HNow this applies to Caesar's bubble Hamon, but i'm just more impressed by what he has to offer. Caesar can trap Danny, cut him with bubbles or concentrate an intense light upon him like a magnifying glass. And the most scary ability that could take Danny out of the fight, is Caesar's hypnosis. While not doing any physical harm, this allows Caesar to gain influence over Danny, and he can use him to do one of two things. A) make him inactive and of no help to Luke or the more threatening option B) use Danny against Luke, and utilize the Iron Fist which has been known to hurt Luke.It's not unreasonable for Caesar to do this, as he did it when Joseph and him first met, and Danny doesn't really have a defense against hypnosis. Danny's other abilities are quite basic and really go for a raw power approach to battle and lack any real defense in general. Caesar is the more experienced, in my opinion has the more useful abilities, and has been shown to be just as creative as Joseph in many regards. Edge: JoBros

Overall: This was really hard for me to make a decision. I originally thought this was an easy win for Luke Cage and Danny Rand, due to the fact that Hamon isn't the most effective thing against these two. But in this super close battle, i'm actually reversing my decision and giving to my boys Joseph Joestar and Caesar Zeppeli. While Luke and Danny have more outright power and overall work better as a team, they both have some fatal flaws that really drag them down. Luke really does suffer from his straighforward thinking and what i call a heroic attitude that doesn't allow him to not do the honorable thing. This leaves him vulnerable to a quick-witted guy like Joseph who can distract him for a pretty significant amount of time with his various tricks(clackers, traps etc.).As for Danny, as I have already addressed, i'm not too impressed with his abilities. At first I thought that the Iron Fist/Chi combo would devestate Caesar, but really, it's pretty limited, especially against Caesar's admittedly very strong durability. He also lacks experience and resorts to again " punching stuff really hard" quite often leaving him again vulnerable to all sorts of attacks. Then there's the problem of hypnosis. Usually one wouldn't think hypnosis is a terribly useful ability, but here, it's perfect for overcoming the Jobros' biggest flaw, their lack of power. Caesar can use both of these guys against each other either using Danny and the Iron Fist against Luke or vice versa. Also, Danny and Luke lack synergy, which really limits them on how they can cover for each other's weaknesses, while Caesar and Joseph can easily coordinate their attacks as shown when they did so with Esidisi. Caesar and Joseph may not be the best at teamwork but they have enough synergy, guile and creativity to overcome their lack of power and win the day here.
