Spock vs. Data

I'm not sure if this has or has not been made before, but I am curious.

Who do you think would win in a pure contest of strength?

In Spock's fight with Kirk, Spock is shown to be able to break the metal lirpa blades from their handle and split a metal gong.

All the same, Data has been shown to be able to outmatch and strangle a human Borg.

In my personal opinion, Data would probably win, because even if Spock was stronger at first, Data wouldn't get tired.

    Data, he's an Android that can go one on one with a Borg Drone. Vulcans have been assimilated. That, and, as you've said, Spock would eventually tire. Data would not.

    I'd find a contest of logic between the two to be infinitely more interesting. There's no reason to reduce two of the most intelligent characters in Star Trek to a meaningless contest of brute strength, after all.

    Data, without a doubt.

    Spock did not "break" the blade, he knocked the blade off of the wooden staff of the lirpa. Cutting the gong was an effect of force and the sharpness of the Lirpa blade.... on the flip side of this we've seen Data bend gun barrels and lift anvils off the ground like they were an empty show box and toss man-sized boulders over his shoulders like used tissue paper.

    in therms of mind power data would loose before his emotional chip has been implanted.
    data with emotional chip would be on par with spock, so a draw. both would be as well as logical as emotional.

    Data for the WIN.

    He's bulletproof,
    He doesn't need sleep (or rest),
    He has crazy reflexes,
    He has an answer for everything, and he's always right (unless the episode is somehow focused on Wesley Crusher),
    And he's a Terminator--er, a learning computer.


    No amount of logic can win against a physically superior foe. Neither are phaser proof, though I'd wager Data can take much more than Spock -- I'd like to see how that goes. Maybe the next feature can have them both in a Mexican standoff of sorts?
