gonna say it’d be a draw. the bear has the advantage of power but he’s gonna exhaust himself on the armor, meanwhile the knight will hack the shit out of the bear all the while. but, even in armor the knight will take a beating, and while not immediate the blunt force trauma, exhaustion from the battle, and blood loss (internal and external) would eventually kill the knight.

Properly made, a knights armor evenly distributed the weight around the body. Knights could move with surprising agility on foot. If given a battle axe, especially the ones designed to defeat armour, a knight would most definitely win, unless the bear got lucky. A good knight might not even take any damage. Given a spear, the bear might not even be able to reach the knight. Don't get me wrong I'm not downplaying the bear. I wouldn't stand a chance against one, but I also don't train for hours everyday, in armour, with weapons.

all good points, i hadn’t considered the differences in weaponry. a spear would have increases the distance between the knight and his foe, and the bear probably wouldn’t stand a chance.
