I personally don't think that Robocop would stand a chance in hell against Predetor.

I meant there is a mismatch on so many issues.

Weapons - lazer cannon and flying metal discs vs hand gun (well machine pistol). And what happens if Robo looses his gun a la Robocop 2 and they meet face to face?? Pred has all those cold steel implements to get to work with.

Manoeuvrability - how about super agility vs no agility or even the ability to run!!!

Camouflage - Bending light vs thump, thump, thump, thump, whirr click, thump, thump!!

I mean the technology gap in insurmountable, Predetor has mastered space travel, Robocop is made by us and our puny brains.

Ok so Robocop prob emits not heat and that cold make things harder, but Predator had a variety of different optical modes..
Plus I was reading an article about sniper craftsman ship and found an interesting comment that things of identical temperature can infact radiate different intensities of IR energy. So even though Robocop may be same temp as ambient temp, the materials he's made of may still cause him to be distinguishable via IR detection... Anyway we'll never know...

Plus the fact that Predator seemed to survive a barrage of assault rifle and machine gun bullets and escape with minor injury yet Robocop at best fires .45 ACP or Magnum rounds (although highly unlikely.. also imagine recoil on a machine pistol chambered to magnum cartridges.. Jesus...) anyway he prob fires 9mm and that a hell of a lot less powerful than Assault Rifle or Machine gun rounds.
