Spider-Man vs. Jackal
Miles Warren, one of Spider-Man's own rogues. In this site's ratings, the classic Peter Parker Spider-Man wins 80% of their one-on-one fights, so Spider-Man is the favorite.
The verdict: Spider-Man wins most nights
Fight rules: both fighters at their peak, no preparation, no allies, only their own powers and personal gear. A win is a knockout, a restraint they can't escape, or a forced surrender. The percentages are fan estimates, not official information.
Spider-Man's edge
Stronger and faster. Warren is a scientist, not a fighter.
Jackal's edge
A geneticist who mastered cloning, plus claws and drugs. His real weapon is what he does to Peter's mind.
