CFP3157'S EDGES OF MASSIVE DESTRUCTION AND TALKING SKELETONS....WUT?

Iconic: Sir Daniel Fortesque

This weapon match up is certainly the closest, and while the whip can do serious damage from a farther distance, it lacks the power and versatility to get past Danial's armor. Meanwhile, the Magic Sword can do some serious damage to Simon's weak leather with his shield to help protect him against the whip.

Secondary: Sir Danial Fortesque

The Oak Stake lacks the range and penetration power to do any serious damage. The Hammer, while slow, causes massive damage over large areas.

Sub Weapon: Simon Belmont 

It's the classic dual of quantity or quality. But, I'm siding with the quantity on this one. One axe can only be used from so far, but at the same time it's a slow weapon. Meanwhile, Belmont has a multitude of quick and deadly projectiles.

Ranged: Simon Belmont

The Throwing Crosses have virtually unlimited ammo with serious damage, while the Longbow can only do so much with it's much more limited supply.

Secondary Ranged: Even 

Both have different aspects that will help the other in the battlefield. The magical drumsticks can do mild damage to Belmont while providing a tactical aid from the other mooks on the field. Meanwhile, the knives do much more serious damage to Danial but don't provide any other help.

X-Factors: Simon Belmont

Though Danial may have the better defense and strength, Simon has that very deadly combonination of training and experience. Add the fact that they're fighting in a castle, Simon's superior agility will allow him to manuever aroud with ease.

WINNER: SIR DANIEL FORTESQUE AND TEAM PLAYSTATION

In this fight, I feel that no matter how much training and experience Belmont has, he doesn't have any weapons that can get past his armor, and has far as I know, nothing but his whip can do damage to his skeleton. Daniel's lack of vital organs for the knives, crosses, and stakes to hit won't do any to him. The Whip could do damage, but it has to get past Dan's shield and armor to do that. Meanwhile, Dan's going to close that distance and push his advantage up close to the best of his ability. This should allow him to win, but it'll definetly be hard.
