[X-men] Why did wolverine lose to a hand to hand combat against mystic?
gpt
Mystique\*

Wolverine isn't trained (or at least his training and experienced are muddled through all of the stuff happening with his brain). He primarily operates off of instinct and rage which can be exploited. Mystique clearly has training (or at least has the ability to fight like it) and her moves are controlled and calculated.
