Comic death battles are the worst because of inconsistent writing.
So is Hulk's "more powerful angrier he gets." That's like something a child would come up with in a playground argument about a hypothetical fight with a friend.

All signs point to Doomsday winning but, popularity Hulk wins.
Screw Attack has done 5 Marvel vs DC match-ups and Marvel has won 4 out of 5. The only DC win was Batman vs Captain America. Funny thing is they only made that fight because fans were upset Spider-Man beat Batman lol. I expect another Marvel win with Hulk.

I know it is a clone
Doesn't resurrect him. Thor and Wolverine have both killed Hulk. Doomsday had to be nerfed to be weak enough to be killed or not want to fight. Hulk doesn't evolve to be resistant to the thing he died from. If they go with current Doomsday then, yeah, Hulk wins but Deathbattle people usually encompass the more famous aspects of the character.

The angrier he gets the faster his healing works, the tougher be comes. A long fight only favors hulk, because Doomsday takes days to resurrect

You're not understanding how these death battles work. They fight to the death IE can't get back up. It's why Doomsday has the biggest edge... because he can't really die. I already foresee Hulk smashing him, Bruce Banner going home and making food, 2 days later Doomsday comes in again, x1000, Hulk Dies. After killing Superman, resurrection and evolution are Doomsday's defining trait. Hulk can't compete with that overtime.

But WEN BROLY?
If he dies once, he loses a fight to the death.

They're probably going for a draw with Hulk getting somehow angry enough to rip Doomsday in half only for Doomsday's cells to take over his body.

Does he? If that's true then Hulk will most likely win but they're obviously going to incorporate Doomsday's biggest strength into the mix because it's neither third party or situational, it just happens. I could see them being generous. They could also take into account that Doomsday has already fought very strong beings before like Superman and is quite resistant to blunts attacks so he can be hurt from it but not die from being crushed (if that even makes a lick of sense).
But then again... how do you do a fight to the death if one of the opponents doesn't truly stay dead? Nerfbat incoming.
Does it matter how long he stays dead? HE STILL DIED.
He doesn't have to get that mad, and why stop at orbit?
I don't know my DC lore much, I mainly wondered because I wasn't sure if doomsday could handle space or not.
Oh yeah Doomsday doesn't have any internal organs, so he doesn't need to breath
Wait, what? How do you determine when Doomsday is dead if it has no organs? Hell, how do you determine when Doomsday is alive?

They won't do any One Piece characters until the series ends which ain't happening anytime soon

Yeah, the end of One Piece is definitely a ways away.

maybe luffy vs mr fantastic?

Yeah that might be more reasonable and doable.
Cyborg Superman's alien sensors said he was biologically inert after Superman killed him
Reed Richards was doing Gear 3rd and 4th decades before One Piece was a thing
Cyborg Superman strapped Doomsday to an asteroid and tossed him further into space where he remained until Hunter/Prey. He was shown as having been conscious while out in space, and that was probably at least for several...weeks? Months? Not sure what in-universe time had passed during that.

Huh so superman can be nasty when he needs to.
Also Reed vs Luffy should be a thread before this one is veered off course.

Can doomsday sing a calming lullaby?
But if he's just an inexhaustible lump of muscle, there's theoretically no difference between being alive or dead for doomsday. Probably no circulatory system and definitely no respiratory system. No brain either, by that measure. Would a detached limb be able to operate independently?
By that logic, the only way to kill Doomsday at all would be to destroy it completely on a cellular level.

Exactly. Are we talking about Bruce banner smart hulk?
Cause that's a definite hulk win.

From the descriptions provovided in this thread I Can't see you hulk would win, even if he'd be infinetly strong. I mean, Doomsday's resurrection abilities means he will come back to life resistant of the thing he died from right?
So he's unkillable? If he's unkillable, doesn't it by definition mean that Hulk can't win?

But this is death battle, and in death battle the rules are basically die once, you lose. So yeah Hulk would win the match, but Doomsday would be alive once again.

I think if it comes down to the first to die (and not necessarily stay dead) then The Hulk wins.
Doomsday's biggest thing is coming back from the dead and being less vulnerable to what killed him last time. This isn't a 12 round fight*, it's a 1 round till the death battle, and that means The Hulk wins.
*if this were a 12 round fight, and Doomsday was to evolve after each "death" between rounds, then I would probably have to lean towards Doomsday, as I assume The Hulk will eventually get tired, bored, or take Doomsday's revival time as an opportunity to just leave.

Doomsday doesn't resurrect immediately, ya putzes. He can be put down, at least temporarily.
This is a dumb matchup because they're essentially the same character in terms of ability and limits. The outcome purely depends on the writer. It doesn't help that Screw Attack death battle is absolute garbage at this match up shit.

Parallax
best seen in the classic "Shadow of the Beast"
Luffy is gonna have to get a power up mid match to stand a chance
I think it depends. I don't think the strongest Doomsday could beat the strongest Hulk, and Hulk's power scaling over time is better than Doomsday's since Doomsday usually has to take some critical damage first while Hulk just has to get progressively angrier. Doomsday got put down by Justice Lord Superman for a while after getting lobotomized.
Plus, I thought the only reason Doomsday was able to beat Superman was because they fought at night or in some cloud cover or something that reduced Superman's sun exposure?
I don't understand why people think it's going to be a curbstomp in either direction.
I don't think Doomsday can physically evolve a permanent resistance to being punched really, really hard and getting hit progressively harder each time. At least not while he has a physical body.
Mr. Fantastic would probably take that. He managed to defeat Magneto with a wooden gun

Flash handily beat quicksilver
Essentially, this fight could last forever with the Hulk killing Doomsday over and over again.
However, the thing about Doomsday is that he is immune to being killed the same way twice. He evolves to adapt to whatever killed him.
Let's say the Hulk smashes his skull. Doomsday comes back with a harder cranium. Hulk rips out his heart. Doomsday grows two hearts. Hulk rips them both out.
I think eventually Doomsday will evolve to the point when he realizes that his best option to survive against the Hulk is to not fight him.
Maybe he'll turn into a mist and blow away with the wind.
That's what happened to Darwin.

I'm not sure, but I could've sworn there was at least one death battle where a character died and resurrected. If that's true, then Doomsday has a good chance for a win.
