Ryder is a child, no AI help could change that in Andromeda. They cannot even be compared.

Ryder wakes up in hospital with 80 percent bandaged all over body and not able to talk.

It'd be like Mayweather vs McGregor. The Shepard's won't destroy them but they'll beat the Ryder's in the 10th round.

sam voice: Pathfinder, Shepard is getting ready to punch you. Pathfinder, move to the left to avoid being hit. Pathfinder, if you move to the left you might be able to catch Shepard off guard. Pathfinder, keep your arms up to protect yourself. 5 seconds later. Pathfinder. Keep your arms up to protect yourself. Pathfinder, hit Shepard now. Pathfinder, your punch was too late. Pathfinder, your lip is bleeding. Pathfinder, both your eyes are swollen. Pathfinder, I detect internal bleeding in your abdominal region. Pathfinder, I recommend you stop fighting before you suffer more injuries.

Ryder. Because I think SAM pretty much advances to the point where he can resurrect Ryder from anything, and even if Ryder is beaten to the point of brain damage, SAM will still bring him back up and keep him swinging. It's not a fair fight. Unless Shep straight up severs Ryder's head, Ryder/SAM will keep coming back for more.

Come on, Shepard beats a fucking yahg in a fistfight. He and Garrus could beat Ryder's entire crew. Firstly, Garrus sucks at up-close-and-personal. Take Tali. Secondly, counterpoint -- Ryder can punch an architect to death if you time it right. Shepard can only charge-kill a harvester. Which is still pretty cool.
What? You probably didn't talk to Garrus much, since he talks about his skill in hand-to-hand combat and how he used to fight before turian missions. And please, I'm talking about something that actually happens, not about gameplay. Ryder gets beaten in the bar without Drack's help.

Once again, this poll is incomplete : Like I said earlier my Shep and Ryder would not fight. I'm pretty certain a conciliant Shep will take Ryder under his/her arm and help him/her. And Ryder will probably respect Shep too much (he/she is a N7 like Alec) to start a fight.
You also have the option where Shep fall in love for Ryder (or vice versa).
If the fight occurs there will be a Shep QTE, and a Ryder QTE to modify the result.

then there are the issues of jetpacks. Shep hits but , oops Ryder is 10 feet above and comes crashing with a heavy melee... ouch. but if Sheppard hits , the sheer force... ouch Ryder.
i dunno. It's like James Vega arguing with Liara .

Yes, but in ME3, he also mentions he doesn't really like it. ...But mostly I wanted to include that snippet of ambient banter because it's hilarious. "Exactly! ...Wait, what?" And because Tali and Liam would both forget they were fighting and nerd out, and I need that. Since I've never done Drack's loyalty reward without, you know, Drack, I can't say how Ryder would do sans Drack. Why AREN'T we including gameplay? Because it makes Shepard look like a wuss who can't PUNCH GIANT METAL DEATHSNAKES TO DEATH, huh? Now we see the bias inherent in the system!

She's a seasoned veteran. An N7. Without SAM, Ryder's just a rookie.

It would've been more fair if you compared Ryder to James...no, Jacob? Not really. Kaidan/Ashley? Not a chance.
I got it who would win the fist fight between Ryder and Conrad Verner?

And how about Ryder without SAM? If we arbitrarily gimp Ryder, shouldn't we arbitrarily gimp Shepard too? GIMP Shepard as in not being able to use an AI? Sure. If thats the case, No AI Shep v No AI Ryder in a fist fight, who wins?

I believe Shepard wins regardless of him pre or post ME2. He's already destroyed many a AI before ME2 and compared against a security force personal like Ryder....Its not even close. A better comparison would be Alec vs Shepard.

And how about Ryder without SAM? If we arbitrarily gimp Ryder, shouldn't we arbitrarily gimp Shepard too? Doesn't need to be arbitrary, lets do it like for like and remove Shepard's 'act one Bioware chosen one special power' too. Shepard now has a good nights sleep un-tormented by visions of the apocalypse, gets up refreshed and beats the pulp out of Ryder.

It's not a fair fight. Unless Shep straight up severs Ryder's head, Ryder/SAM will keep coming back for more. If it were this easy Alec could have put his helmet on Ryder and SAM could have kept him alive or brought him back to life later.
