If we're specifically talking Battle Beast as he was portrayed against Thragg, then he wins... Even f*cking Thragg himself barely managed to pull a win against him.
Godbutcher > Thragg, and Thor shrugged off attacks that laid up any character in Invincible.

Most times they fought. Gorr was piercing Thor right through the chest, and he fought on like it was nothing.

I wouldn't call that shrugging it off cdtm..kinda chop it up to his pain tolerance (it was uber af during that arc). The Thors were getting worked the entire series.
We also know that BattleBeast himself can fight at super-speed, as his fight with Thragg was taking place across that entire world, and not even Space Racer's tech could track their movements.
This is true, but Thor's gone at it with Gorr, who killed pantheons of Skyfathers and held off old Skyfather Thor.
And he's taken attacks from Celestials, Surtur's amped Twilight, Zeus..
Just like Superman, Thor can step up well beyond his tier when the need arises.

If memory serves, didn't Thragg essentially one-shot BB during the Viltrumites War? And wasn't he already wounded/tired prior to their rematch? I know BB injured himself to compensate, but there's a difference to giving yourself a single wound, and being exhausted and wounded multiple times.
I could be remembering wrong, of course, but if that's the case, it gives some perspective to the fight.
...And he certainly proved this by proceeding to stalemate Thragg for DAYS on end -- nearly killing Thragg himself in the process, and leaving him gravely injured afterward.
Wounded? Yes. Tired? Not at all.
And as you said: BB gave himself the exact same type of injury before the fight began, as he did not want to hold any advantages. All the context says it was a perfectly fair fight.
Hmm. The injury thing makes judging that fight a tad difficult. BB may have tried to match the handicap, yet ultimately we have no way of knowing how much the wound affected their performances. In the end, all we can say is that BB's greatest fear is giving Thragg his most hard-fought victory. It's impressive, yes, but I'm not convinced it's enough to defeat an all-out Thor, especially when you balance it out with BB's other appearances. The Invincible he defeated was a relative noob, and had Thragg taken his place, I have no doubt that Mark would have been dead or crippled in a single punch. Then we have the issue of their first fight, where BB was manhandled.
Looking at it objectively, I can't give BB the win. I can understand how someone might, yet the one thing I know is that whoever wins, it is going to be a brutal fight.
