It's worth noting that that fight occurred after odin literally busted up a team of heralds with a wave of his hand.
And it's probably a LOW showing for thanos -- depending on how powerful you think Odin with Gungnir (which supposedly NEVER fails to slay Odin's enemies... apparently the enchanment doesn't affect thanos) is. Some say odin is omnipotent in asgard, in which case perhaps it's a good showing. Still not as impressive as going toe to toe with tyrant, though.
Superman is in a qualitatitively different power class. Amping his powers is not going to do much for him, until you start talking about thousands of years of energy soak. Even then, the kryptonite weakness is still conspicuous...
Superman is too fast for Thanos. He doesn't use his superspeed that much while fighting, but when he uses it, it's almost impossible to just stand there and take the beating.
Superman wins this. Even under normal conditions, I can see Superman (a Superman who doesn't fight like a retard) hold his own against Thanos.
Yeah I know, blasphemy...
I just don't know how Superman is gonna take him down.

Well, it's kinda starting from scratch, different storylines, only just told Lois about him, different powers to normal Supes.
Kinda like Ultimates is to 616.
And seeing how Supes has bathed in the sun a coupla times with no harm, it's safe to assume it won't this time either. 😄
