Could hulk EVER beat thor?

of course you disagree! we've agreed a couple times in a row, i think. too much agreement between us is no good!

but you're right in this regard: hulk didn't 'kick his ass', (which is what may have been implied by my term 'beating'😉 but it was clear to me that:

1. hulk was the stronger
2. that had the fight gone on he would have eventually ko'd/killed thor. again, thor was basically defenseless when the hammer returned to him -- hulk could have kept the beating up until thor couldn't rise.

you can't argue that thor certainly had the look of a beaten foe -- bloody, torn, while hulk was 'stronger than ever' at the end. and at the very end, it apeared hulk had the answer he had been looking for. he was no longer angry, he was satisfied. hell, even the editors of thor acknowledge hulk won in the letter column in thor 388.

i side with the editors on this one: in my book at least, i give hulk a definite win.

I disagree Leo .... Thors nearly as strong and far more skilled .... If thor hits him as hard as he it the Centinnel the Hulk is dead !

Let's imagine something: Thor decides to kill Hulk. Even regular Thor could use Mjolnir to open a portal that would leave Hulk directly to a black hole. End of story.
But he did lose that one to Hulk. Of course not in such a humiliating way the Hulk lost to King Thor without an entire arm.

King thor without Odin Force and against the Thing as well, although that would have made no difference. 85 tons vs someone who can put a hole in a Celestial ????????? 😕

could Hulk win?

The Hulk can beat Thor if the son of Odin uses his (normal) attack methodology of swinging Mjolnir like a baseball bat.
However, if Marvel was to write Thor to his potential,where he is using all of his various abilities (and for ONCE not using Mjolnir as if it was ONLY a hammer), then NO VERSION OF THE HULK COULD DEFEAT THOR.

However since in MOST cases Thor is written as a long-haired blonde Nordic BRAWLER with a nifty hammer then it is quite possible for the Hulk to beat Thor (and it has happened).
The way Thor is usually written is quite sad .....for all intents and purposes he is a blonde Hulk, although instead of saying 'Hulk smash' he says 'Thor smash with big hammer.'
And then throws a lightning bolt or two, and maybe tosseshis hammer around so it can come flying back to him (someone needs to sell him a boomerang).

Written to his fullest Thor would be one hard character to stop.
Written as usual then Thor can be beaten by Captain America (as once happened, where Cap smashed Thor over and over with his shield).
Sad.

That may be true. But nothing can erase Hulk's shameful defeat to King Thor without the Odinforce

A one-handed non-odin-force King Thor, which is essentially regular thor but without the paranoia about killing mortals inhibiting his every action. In other words, the strength level of crazy Thor.

The only hero to ever actually knock thor out is Beta Ray Bill. In terms of duking it out, the only times the Hulk has ever got the better of regular thor is when regular thor was distracted by civilians or paused when the hulk was down to enter a long philosophical monologue. When there havent been distractions its always ended in a standstill which means Beta Ray Bill should be able to have a slight advantage over the hulk. Berserk thor would kill them both.

BTW I should add that the there is no better example of the leap in capability between regular Thor and unleashed Thor than in the Dark Gods series where Thor is initially overpowered easily by one of the Dark Gods but later single-handedly downs the Dark God heavy hitters.

At first, one of the Dark Gods was smacking thor about in a way the Hulk could only dream of. I mean this guy chopped the hammer in half then kicked the living crap out of Thor who barely escaped with his life into a drain hole.

When thor came back (with a couple of friends to keep the enemy minions busy), he was pissed and proceeded to effortlessly wipe the floor with the same Dark God who had smacked him around earlier, literally smashing his skull in, then frying the head of the Dark Gods (who had been powered up by the odin force) with a sustained blast of his "god-force".

hulk all the way

Beta Ray Bill is not the only hero who has knocked Thor out cold. Captain America did it too. And of course various villains, but I suppose they are not regarded as 'heroes'

Aliveinboston got my point here, even regular Thor is a GOD ant the fact is: it was already shown in Marvel by the great Dan Jurgens what is the real scope of Thor strength and fight capability. Without and arm and without the Odinforce he killed Hulk,Thing, and all the other heroes Dr. Strange teletransported to his castle. Show me who else in Marvel can do that. And please don't say Hyperion from the Exiles.

I don't recall Cap ever knocking Thor out.

Neither do i. When did that happened.

Hmmm, I saw a picture of it in this forum. And it was already mentioned in this thread. He just beat Thor with his shield...

Ok so if you wanna go by TSHERN now Cap is above Thor. Common it must have happened in an unusual context.

I'm not saying Cap is above Thor. I just said that BRB isn't the only hero who has knocked Thor out. Even though Alpha Flight beat Galactus I'm not saying they are stonger than him.

Here it goes once more: Alpha Flight knocked Galactus out, but still Galactus is far stronger and better than Alpha Flight. Cap knocked Thor out, but still Thor is far stronger and better than Cap.

My aim simply was to falsify the statement which said Beta Ray Bill is the only hero who has knocked Thor out. Why would I say that Cap is above Thor when it is clear that Cap is outclassed?

My bad! You're right!

Thor written like he should would kill hulk all around end of story, but if Thor wants to trade blows with the Hulk then Thor will lose unless Thor goes warrior madness on him which is very possible.

Thor written full potential >>>> Hulk 10/10
Thor in brawl with hulk, Hulk 8/10

Against an intelligently written Thor, allowed to use everything he has, I would say no.

But, I'd like to see the stats on War Hulk again. If he was created by Apocalypse to fight Celestials, then he's up there with the Asgardian Destroyer.

War Hulk was not created to fight the Celestials. Apocalypse was planning to use the energy created by the Hulk when he fought Juggernaught and Absorbing Man to overthrow the Celestials himself.
However, Hulk rebeled and ripped the enhancements from himself and hopped on a plane out of Egypt.

The Darkone is completely correct
