Well, I found predators a very mysterious race, and I have many questions about them. It's a matter of taste.
To the debate I'd like to say something.

First those creatures can be compared, but clearly saying the hunter from p1 would defeat an alien like that would be a piece of cake... can be said, but lacks meaning. Even if you do the comparsion, there's the problem predators go after strong prey, which (according to p1) can kill them. So if you want to make any sense to the debate, you have to assume an alien has a chance to kill a predator. This way you could say a predator could kill an ewok, muhahahaha. Don't degrade my favourite creature!
You can't compare p1 and alien, it doesn't have a meaning again. The alien doesn't fight in that movie, it doesn't take any damage or a single attack. You can't know how much can it endure. So at least aliens must be concerned. (Or you can make concepts on your own, but in a debate like this that is irrelevant). Then, you know the facts about that film, so I'd be rather concerned with Predator 1. First: the shoulder canon can kill a human, when it hits it fully. Dutch didn't die, and the m-203 didn't fall to pieces. So one must assume it doesn't have the greatest devastating power. And it makes sense of course: is there a point in attacking a boar with a tactical missile? The wristblade didn't penetrate a rock. I hope you remember Aliens, and how much they endure. So according just this, and these movies it cannot be told, which of them would win. I don't have a solid opinion if just those two movies are concerned. I'd say predator, just because it can use hunting tactics and is smarter (and maybe as agile, but weaker) than an alien and I like that much more than alien
. But it doesn't mean it can be deduced from those movies nor I underestimate aliens, that would be foolish. And would mean death (reference: p1, think). God, it's long. Listen to yourself:
