Gladiator is ultra-confident and his confidence isn't going to dip in this battle. He is determined show his empire that even a god isn't above him when his confidence is supreme and he will fight Thor with everything he's got until he alone is left standing, victoriously holding his battle prize, Mjolnir, over the fallen god's crumpled body.
Thor is furious beyond imagination at the indignation of being challenged by an insolent alien. Thor's anger manifests in a lightning storm over Asgard such that man has never witnessed! Despite Odin's pleas to the contrary, our warrior god backs down from no challenge. Thor plans to teach Gladiator how much a fool he is for daring to challenge a god by unleashing the full extent of Thor's powers, without any mercy.
The Watcher learns of this situation, and in an attempt to prevent collateral destruction that is sure to result from this great battle, transports the two warriors onto a rocky planet with a magical forcefield around it ensuring that neither combatant can escape.
Who will be left standing after this planet-shaking battle is over? (please state reasons for your choice. after enough responses, I will write a conclusion.)

no, I don't write. I just wanted to spice up the scenario a bit, try to get some more interest than just to say Thor v. Gladiator bloodlust on. I wanted to explain why both would be on bloodlust.

Well, you've stipulated that Glads is ultra confident and his confidence won't dip. That means if he goes into this fight believeing he can't lose, and that belief can't be shaken, then he won't lose. That's his whole deal.

I gotta go with Kallark on this one.

I think his confidence effect is a bit of a hyperbole. Sure, he is much more powerful when fully confident, but it doesn't mean he can defeat Galactus if he believes he can. In the Character OWnage thread, I think there is a pic of a fully confident Galactus being owned by some very powerful version of Silver Surfer (Glad was cut in 2 by surfer's board).

Yeah, it probably is hyperbole, but regardless, you've put us into the uncharted territory of Kallark having confidence that can't be broken no matter what. What i said is just as possible as anything else.
Though he did seem pretty confident the whole time against Tyrant, and still got his ass handed to him....
Regardless, even without unshakeable confidence Kallrk takes a slight majority over Thor IMO.

I think its more as Gladiator only loses "power" when his confidence is shaken. Not the other way around.

Oh, cool.
As a writer myself, it seemed to me you might. Ah, well...

I'll take that as a compliment. Are you a professional writer? What do you write?

So, so far, it seems like Gladiator will prevail.

It was an Exiles comic... in it galactus was the savior of worlds... a diseasing was rendering all planets lifeless... and it was galactus's role to heal the planets.. even the shiar loved galactus.. In this world zennla was a wartorn world that destroyed itself... galactus made surfer a herald to find him worlds faster that he could heal... in exchange surfer asked that galactus teach him how he heals worlds so that he could restore zennla... galactus ended up refusing so surfer rose up against his former master...galactus states he can only heal worlds that were dying due to whatever disease was killing them, and that he would (or maybe could) not aid planets that had done it to themselves. so eventually the shiar and exiles had to go up against the surfer...
Kallark was indeed cut inhalf by the surfboard in this reality... and the surfer was defeated, bfr actually, by blink who's power was augmented by galactus to levels way beyond what she could normally do...
in this world galactus was entirely brown and appeared to be made of earth..
also really quick. on the lowend kallark was defeated by cannonball.. and on the highend he defeated ego a living planet... (neither of these were when kallark was augmented like when he had the unipower... which is something else altogether)
a bloodlust thor i would think should be able to put down gladiator... who has repeatedly been used as a bar to measure the power levels of new characters... if you want to say someone is pretty powerful... have them beat up glads.. .or terrax.. or surfer...

Am I the only one who is of the opinion that 616 surfer SERIOUSLY needs to do some owning like his exiles counterpart?

Quoted for the truth. Gladiator literally won't stop until Thor is lying bleeding in Glad's hands.

Meh, just because his strength won't dip because his confidence won't dip, doesn't make him invulnerable. My understanding of his power is that if he's fully confident, he can overcome anything he focuses on. But this does not guard against the possibility of him being taken by suprise and being hurt as a consequence. Being suprised means he had no chance to focus on whatever obstacle was placed in front of him and therefore, given sufficient power, he could still be overwhelmed. Get what I'm saying?
But this may be an incorrect. If it is, I'd like links or scans please for educational purposes. Learning is fun.

Beserker Thor is suppose to be ten times stronger then regular Thor that might be a factor.

As I've said in a HUNDRED threads, I'm still waiting for concrete evidence of Warrior Madness Thor being ten times the strength of a normal Thor.
Many have mentioned that it is only fanboy trapping.

He's not, and there isn't any evidence stating as much. It was basically a Thor who was willing to kill not caring for who was hurt during the process. So it was really just Thor not holding back, and fighting to the fullest of his abilities.
As for Gladiator's focus not faltering, that doesn't mean he still can't be defeated. It's not as if Gladiator has unlimited power, he's just at his max with faltering or jobbing.
Alfheim
Thor has owned glads before. In fact Glads went into the future to improve his fighting skills came back and still got owned by Thor. I still think Glads is going to lose. Confidence helps but that doesnt mean you are still going to win....

I've always believed that Warrior Madness Thor isn't any more powerful than Normal thor, he's just not holding back anymore.

Yeah but when you are madder you tend to be stronger. Maybe not ten times but you will still be stronger. Logic dictates that warrior madness Thor will be stronger but maybe not ten times.

I'm not the Hulk, and neither is Thor. Madder doesn't mean stronger. Just means that you're less likely to hold anything back.

However that's a basic law for everyone, not just for Thor. He may seem stronger and unleash more power because of his rage, but that doesn't mean he's on portable steroids every time he gets angry. Potentially, anybody can accomplish the same thing when their calm as when their angry.

You always HEAR about 'amazing feats of adrenaline' but that doesn't make them true.
The 'Old woman lifting a car off her dying child' thing is a debunked myth.
And, again, going 'berserk' is just allowing animalistic instincts to take over, and allowing the societal norms imposed upon us ebb away. We are left with sheer id, and we don't pull punches.
That's hardly the same thing as actually GETTING STRONGER.

It's called adrenaline. It increases your strength, speed, etc due to stress. It's the same principle for every being, not just Thor.

Also a myth. Adrenaline doesn't actually amp your strength or speed. It elevates your autonomous nervous system, frees nutrients for muscular action, constricts blood vessels in some parts of the body, while dilating those for muscular action, dilates pupils, and inhibits certain processes like the urinary and tear secretion.
Your muscular fibers are still the same density, the same length, the same level of hypertrophy.

Yes it is actually. When you get mad your adrenaline increases
Adrenaline
Hormone secreted by the medulla of the adrenal glands. Adrenaline is synthesized from a closely related substance, noradrenaline, and the two hormones are released into the bloodstream in situations of fear or stress.
Adrenaline's action on the liver raises blood-sugar levels by stimulating glucose production and its action on adipose tissue raises blood fatty-acid levels; it also increases the heart rate, increases blood flow to muscles, reduces blood flow to the skin with the production of sweat, widens the smaller breathing tubes

Aren't you assuming that your muscles hAVE to get bigger to make you stronger? Isn't increased blood flow to the muscles going to make you stronger as well?

If my memory serves me right Thor was never referred to as being "Warrior Madness", I think it's just a name the fans adopted. Sort of how like the fans call the clone Thor "Clor". However even if he is called "Warrior Madness" Thor, that by no means implies that he's more powerful.

Thanks, but I already mentioned the dilation of the blood vessels to the muscles. And no, blood vessel dilation does NOT make you stronger. It gives a better deliverance of nutrients, it will allow you better ATP usage, it will let you activate more muscular fibers simultaneously, but those things alone do not make you any stronger.
Seriously.

He still can be defeated. Thor can simply overpower his durability. Thor traps Kallark into a forcefield, makes a hole to the forcefield and shoots him with godblast until he drops.
