I know what you're thinking. One, aren't these supposed to be posted on Monday? And two, 3 options? I thought you weren't doing the multiple options thing until DC vs. Marvel pt. 50? Well, I keep forgetting to post these Mondays because of wrestling and stuff, and I couldn't decide who to have Batgirl fight against since I had two options, so I said what the hell, I'm voting Batgirl either way so what's the harm in a little threesome. *flicks everyone in the head who tries to take that out of context*

Batgirl wins this of course. I mean, there can't be much doubt in your minds about that.
X-23 is a newbie/rookie. Unlike the donner of her genetic material, X doesn't have much tactical skills. She's a feral fighter. She goes for flat out attacks, throwing her two claws out wildly in hopes of striking something. And her healing factor is only a quarter of Wolverine's. She's been trained as a fighter, but she never uses the skills, because to her way of thinking all she needs is her anger and her claws.
Shang Chi is the master of Kung-Fu. End of story. He's a superb-martial artist, but he's training is limited. Plus he's known to be a bit of an ego and isn't afraid to flaunt his abilities.
Batgirl on the other would barely break a sweat on this on. She's been trained since the day she was born to only think in physical means. At the age of 1 she broke Cain's thumb in order to get a bottle (as shown in the new issue of Batgirl). She's been trained in every form of combat, she's beaten the best of the best Lady Shiva, she's takes damage without complaint and she's beaten up entire gangs, meta-humans and so on.
First thing would be to take out X-23. Batgirl tosses a pink-goo tangler pellet on the disgruntled girl, and that's it. The admantium can cut through anything, but unfortunately the tangler pellet is an unstable substance. Everytime X cuts it, the goo will only stick on more until she's completely and totally immobalized and she'll probably hurt herself more than anything. Batgirl can come in, stop her heart with a quick jab and that's about it for X-23. Or a tranquilizer will work just as well. Again, X-23's healing factor isn't as powerful as Wolverine's so she takes longer to heal from major damage.
Shang Chi, she'll play with. She's always up to testing her skills against another good martial artist, but he's doesn't have her ability to read movement, or her extensive training or her high threshold of pain (Robin once shot her, point-blank in the shoulder with a gun [long story] and she didn't react.] Shang would be lucky to even connect once with Batgirl.

*Gets flicked in the head*
OK, I guess I deserved that. But then again...
*Gets flicked in the head again*
OWW!! OK, OK, I'll stop thinking about it.
*Gets flicked in the head again*
OWWWWW!!! Allright, you've made your point.

Bah, like I would make a point. It's not my fault you have a dirty mind. :P

Well now with what Robin brings up i'm no longer so sure...i was gonna vote x-23...curse you and your logic! Still, if it came down solely to physical ability, I think that it would be hard cuz in my opinion it would be down to whose body can handle the most damage...then again...shot point blank no effect...alright, batgirl'd win but totally physical she'd have to put forth at least half her full effort to do it...

Can't think of anything witty today, Batgirl wins.
