Who wins?

No bfring.

juggernaut74
Grimm.

Bentley
Ben.

pym-ftw
Carol.... She can blast him from the sky or just dump him in the ocean and wait for him to drown.

juggernaut74
Not sure if that would work.

Flyattractor
Yeah. To "dump him in the ocean" she would have to pick him up somehow and he is big enough their isn't anyway that she could get a hold of him where he couldn't reach her and fight it off.

*awaits the 13 year old mindset reaction*

pym-ftw
???

She is capable of ftl speed, even assuming she can't use it in atmosphere like almost all marvel characters she can tank a few punches.

Stoic
Carol was strong enough to get the better of Mr. Fixit, until he turned into the Savage Hulk. I think that she may be able to take him based on that one showing.

tkitna
I always thought Carol had a little bit of a strength advantage and surely speed.

I don't know. Its to close to call.

pym-ftw
Carol is probably class 60-80 at base but amping off energy she gets physically stronger.

Her durability is in line with class 100 though.

I don't think that this is the case any longer. She was able to contend with a blood lusted Wonder Man while he was being controlled by Modok, or something along those lines. She was also able to physically over power Mr. Fixit until he turned into the Savage Hulk. So she is somewhere between Mr. Fixit, and Savage Hulk in terms of strength. Fixit of course can become stronger with time, but this still does not excuse her showing against Simon.

LGU
She didn't overpower Fixit. She commented that he wasn't as strong as the savage Hulk, then punched him three times, the third one knocking him away. When he came back he had turned into the savage Hulk (inexplicably - Loeb).

Anyway, he never even had a chance to throw a punch and there was certainly no test of strength. Her punches were powerful enough to knock Fixit around, but that's about all we can take from that scene.


Cheers.

If this is directed at my statement. I meant that Carol is a normal sized human female where as Ben is several times larger then a normal human male. She can't just grab him in any hold that Ben can't reach her. Unless maybe she gets him in a super wedgie or something. And if he GRABS her. She can't "dump him in the ocean".

Stoic
The dumping in the ocean or BFR has been turned off in the OP. They have to fight it out.

Wonder Man knocked her @$$ out not too long ago.

Mr. Fixit was CL70... Ben ko's her faster than Simon did

pym-ftw
Simon would punk Ben.

juggernaut74
Well Namor didn't look all that impressive against Ben in their last two meetings.

carver9
Mr. Fixit isn't class 70...stop using bios and Ms. Marvel was obviously holding back against Wonderman.

Everyone outside of you, knows that Mr. Fixit is at a base HULK in strength... Please enlighten us on what he is?

You just contradicted yourself, "base Hulk" is above class 70 by quite a bit

Post Binary (when reduced to her new "standard" levles) i was of the belief that Carols stats were raised a few notches. Where she was once a 50 tonner and went up to class 100+ as binary post binary shes supposed to be around 75 tons. Thing was originally around 70 amd I beleive is closer to 80/90 these days. Ben has a strength advantage but a small one.

Carol however has a massive speed advantage, flight and energy projection and manioulation. If BFR were on the table she wouldnt even need to touchmor get close to Ben to pick himmup as she could do so (and has) with energy constructs.

Carol should win in a good fight due to versatility

Team Simon could just argue that most of the times they fought, Simon was under some sort of outside influence (Xemu and Puppet Master).

Team Ben could argue that Ben was aware of this and was holding back (which he was and it was stated on panel) and still won.

The one fight they had with the least amount of shenanigans was in West Coast Avengers 75. Does anyone have the issue? The WCA and the FF were tricked into fighting each other.

ODG
It's Captain Marvel now. And I think she'd win.

simon was mind whammied in that fight too and it wasn't really a fight at all as much as it was a single punch thrown by ben that hit simon who was slowed due to the spell he was under. after the punch ironman attacked ben and clint took him out with a single arrow. lol

classic wca stuff.... anyway, absolutely nothing to be gleaned from that meeting.

juggernaut74
I never saw that fight.

leonidas
you didn\t miss anything....

zom1967
Didn`t Carol Danvers eventually become binary,then war bird after that?However,I think if Ben went all out.He could at least beat Ms.Marvel.

krisblaze
Im liking Ms.Marvel for this one.

HULK's base WAS CL70 it is now CL100
Ben's used to be CL5 he is now CL100+
Carol used to be CL15 she is now CL70 (as Binary CL100+)

Ben wins 11/10

One theres no such thing as a base hulk. Forum myth, he starts at an average of whatever incarnation he is. "Base" hulk is banner. Anyway this doesn't mean a no limit fallacy is applied it just means we go by averages. So he's not delivering asteroid shattering blows at the beginning of the bout. Second Carol isn't a great match for heavy hitters, her durability is sketchy. And Ben has weathered some of the worst beatings in comics. If he's serious imo carol gets raped...again

juggernaut74
I don't think Thing is physically able to rape anybody. Hasn't it been established he don't have and junk?

He's got big thick fingers dont he?

juggernaut74
I don't think you can rape somebody with your fingers, that's being molested. Anyways back on topic. Ms. Marvel was having a hard time with Namora who is basically Namor light and Ben usually holds his own against Namor. So I'm backing Ben I guess.

Haha what dude

Sin I AM
Until she owns an a lister imo she'll always be below ben. Namor is turning heel so i don't expect a good showing from him for awhile (someone mentioned Ben owning him recently)

juggernaut74
Colossus was able to restrain Binary from beating up Rogue so I do think Ben has a strength edge over her. Just her speed and flight is what will make this a fight.

riv6672
Which is why she needs a running game to win. Any kind of slug fest and she's toast.

Also, off topic but, Namor's going heel?

Yea since Phoenix five he's gradually been going heel. Eventually he'll return but dont expect any decent feats in transition

BeyonderGod
Ms.Marvel doesn't have the strength/durability. But she has the speed,agility along with the combat skills to out match the thing.

Not really. Carol is pretty strong, she has the ability to blast the crap out of him to get distance, she has flight. and she's not too bad of a fighter. I could see her winning, or giving him one hell of a fight. She didn't seem to have much trouble against Tiger Shark, and he used to give Namor a bit of trouble.

Tiger Shark's up and down, but I agree with your assessment.

There's no reason why Thing's sole advantage should be enough to win this. She has him beat in every other category and even the strength difference isn't that big tbh.

If there actually is a strength difference. Carol's pretty strong.

Ben is class 85, it's not based on lifting feats. Even ms marvel has lifted far above 100 tons.

juggernaut74
Ben was showng pressing 85 tons in a actual comic recently and it was heavily implied it was his max iirc.

YOU get out Ben maxed out at 100 tons in a contest with She-Hulk and struggled at that.

Carol punts Ben into Orbit.

juggernaut74
Don't think they made it to 100 tons.

pym-ftw
Ben did, Shulk maxed out at less

juggernaut74
Pretty sure they stopped at 85 tons after She-Hulk threw the towel in.

You're right. He's more like class 80.

Yes. They didn't get to 100 tons.

Thing wanted to race to 100 tons, but She Hulk called it quits at 85 and the match ended abruptly.

I didn't read the scene as 85 being her absolute best. After conceding she leaps over, throws herself onto what he was lifting and they're joking about. I'm sure if the fate of the world rested on her being able to push another 10 to 20 tons, she'd lift it. I'd take it as a marker of what she's comfortable lifting on an average day and a more reasonable assessment than the 'well over 100' that pops up on her wikis and has no basis in comics since the days of 'Jupiter Suit Jen'.

As to the actual fight here... I rate Ben as stronger and more durable in that his 'armour' would give him more protection/absorb more of the impact of her hits than her durability would protect her from his fists. Which isn't to say she couldn't land a KO because she's got the power to do it, but I think toe-to-toe, he's more likely to wear her down enough to get an opening for his Sunday punch.

Hmm they smack each other around for a while, Ben clocks her with a decent shot but as he moves in, off she flies, speeding high above, before turning and descending at speed! As she does so, Ben starts tearing up the surrounding terrain to hurl in her path but she slips through his man-made asteroid field. With her closing fast, he winds up to smash her into orbit but the ground disappears from under him from a double dose of photon blasts. He staggers back losing his balance and BOOOOM, she's rammed him! A weary Marvel steps out of the crater leaving the Thing flat on his back. Carol wins, hurrah.

Wasn't there an issue where Ben was training some Avengers and they mentioned him being Class 100?

I thought he was training some Xmen.

He was training them to fight class 100 characters.
