Knuckles' strength is quite impressive, but he has a bit of a short temper. Shadow could take advantage of this easily.

Brains over brawn, and Knuckles seems to be more of the latter.

Shadow has all the abilities that Sonic has but a little slower and stronger plus Chaos Control.

Knuckles has besides his strenght the ability to glide, hang onto walls and move underground which can be useful in certain environments (see above). Depending on the incarnation he could also block the Chaos Emeralds rendering Shadow's Chaos Control useless or use Chaos Control himself.

But considering Sonic and Knuckles always tie in battle he would definitely give Shadow a run for his money. That means, if they don't dumb him down like they always do. Couldn't have said it better myself! Give yourself a pat on the back!
