The THING VS. The Abomination

The THING is overrated how? and compared to whom.

I think the THING still takes Abom out, like i stated before a hard fought battle.

If we are looking at a power lifting competition, strength is the major factor. Not necessarily in a fight. And the disparity between them in strength is negligible. Ben's the better fighter, has more heart than any other character that comes to mind, and always has his trash talking in tip-top form during any battle.

THING wins.

Abom wins. He beat the Hulk several times. Healing factor, Class 100 strength, etc. Thing goes down.

And the Thing always gets punked by the Hulk.

Abomination has been badly wounded in fights with the Hulk...the Thing has never been hurt that bad. Wonderman also beat Abomination when he wasin his previous form; Thing however, trashed Wonderman when he was in that form. And i doubt Thing is still class 85 like it says at marvel directory...that was from 1986, and the Thing gets stronger as more time goes by.

He is still Class 85. The new Marvel Encyclopedia says so. Either way the Thing still loses. It's still Hulk vs. the Thing. Just with a different name.

I go with Abomination, Like previously stated, he has the advantage in strength, healing ability and intelligence. Not to mention he has the mean factor, A-Bom is a mean mofo and would do whatever it takes to take out Thing.

Thing is a scrapper, but he eventually gets his ass handed to him in this on. Good fight though.

Abomination once knocked out the Hulk like Thing never did so Abomination would win.

So did Namor. And he can't beat The THING either. (TODAY not in the 60's or the same 60's story re-artisted.)

😎

I'm pretty sure Namor beat Thing at least once. Scarlet Spider knows Namor, he could probably clear it up. Oh Abomination wins. Namor will also kick Thing's A$$. 😛

The Thing vs. the Abomination is like Ali vs. Frazier or Foreman.

Both Frazier and Ali were stronger, more savage fighters, but
it was never enough to put down the somewhat physically weaker, but still superier fighter with more skill, wit, and heart.

The Thing is a highly skilled boxer, street fighter, and athlete. If Abomination didn't take him out fast like a young Mike Tyson in a KO. The Thing would beat him.

abom only as he too is a good fighter aswell as twice as strong, and more inteligent, also guys stead on , i think bom beat hulk once and that was the frst time they met t introduce the character

wynndar get back on the hulk juggie forums pal

1.Thing is his early appearences was Class 5, then he reached class 85.
It wasn't upgraded since that except for Rocky Thing storyline.

2.Thing's durability comes from his rocky form, Abom's skin is such durable as his rocky form altough when he fight with Hulk the green goliath is much pissed off cause:
Abom once beat him, and no much guys in the MU can say:
I've pummeled Hulk and put him K.O.!
Abom killed betty
Abom is a son of a *****
So Hulk is much baddier with Abom than he is with Hulk.

Abomination has hth skills too, Thing takin WM was just another let the Thing fanboys be happy issue.

Abom is just to strong for The Thing. True Grimm is a better fighter and probably has more heart, but its just not enough against pure strength. Plus with Aboms healing factor i'd bet my dollar on Abom.

Dont go there with Namor and Thing. Know your history before you speak. Thing is Namors biotch.

Namor series #50, F.F Unlimited #6. All 90's a$$whoopins buddy.

Namor #48 doesnt count cause Thing was mind controlled, but he got owned again.

Wonderman beating Abomination is also the right thing Wyndar.
WM before he become the energy glowing guy was still able to become stronger if he was angrier so Abomination losing to him is believable.

Thing would get turned into gravel.

Take a look at almost any classic match up between strength and skill in
boxing or ultimate fighting. Strength just doesn't matter if they are within 20% of each other. Training does matter. Abomination is a fighter i.e. he has been in fights. He is not an ex-military, ex. football, ex-wrestler, ex-street fighter TRAINED combatant. Abomination has to KO the Thing with a big punch early. His healing doesn't matter. It never helps him IN the middle of fights, as far as I can tell.

Sugar Ray vs. Roberto Duran, and almost anybody else he fought
Ali vs. Foreman, Frazier
Hollyfield vs. Riddick Bowe
Abom is like Tank Abbott in the early UFC, strong and aggressive, but no match for somewhat less physically strong, highly trained fighters who he couldn't overwhelm and KO early.

The Thing wins 3 out or 5, if they go long. Abomination wins 2 of 5 for the early KO.

This isn't a boxing match, it's comic book world.Abomination in his last fight with Hulk has delivered major strong blows that will shatter Thing's body like a a stone against a piece of glass.
The Thing can keep up then gets beaten, he's a punching ball.
Look at the last fight between FF4 and Dr. Doom.Doom summoned a group or stone made magical monsters who pummeled the "unbeatable unstoppable golden heart rocky guy" beating the crap out of him.

Where does it say that Abom is stronger than the Hulk?
