Captain America: Civil War was packed full of awesome fight scenes, and there were almost countless variations of Avenger v Avenger battles in the movie. However, at least one of those ended up being scrapped, and writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely have revealed in a recent interview with Fandango that we would have at one point seen Cap take on Black Widow. "There was a good fight between Captain America and Black Widow that we lost mainly due to time," Markus explains.

"[Cap and Black Widow] clearly have a deep relationship even though they're clearly on opposite sides, and you never know how many times you need to hit that over the course of the movie," McFeely adds. "I think it works without this fight, but we certainly didn't know if it would."

That's a fair point, but like the cut fight between Cap and Hawkeye in The Winter Soldier, it's hard not to feel disappointed over the fact that we're now unlikely to ever see these two heroes exchange blows. 

Of course, the biggest question is who between Captain America and Black Widow would have won. The answer may upset some of you! "I guess Cap did," Mcfeely says. "Let's just say he got away in the moment, how about that?"

What do you guys think about these comments from the writers?
