What's the Word(s)?

I'm looking for a word(s) that describes to give better arguments than somebody because it makes more sense, more reasonable, etc..

e.g. My arguments are pretty convincing. I'm sure you won't be able to come up with something that will _____ me.

Thanks so much.

Dear Jin The exact word to fit your sentence is "out-argue". It is slightly unusual, but it is correct.. - Nothing he can say will out-argue me Also - He can say what he wants: his arguments will not prevail - I have won the argument - I'm sorry, that is not going to persuade me Regards, Dave

That is a good idea to include a sentence, Jin. Here are some suggestions:

My arguments are pretty convincing. I'm sure you won't be able to come up with any that will eclipse/top/surpass/outdo/finesse mine.
