Yea I like Thing. Fanboy? Possibly.What feats are you looking at that makes him stronger than Thing? I need to see these. Thing has held a bridge, oil rig, and physically overpowered Namor. Colossus cannot touch that.
Durability? Things got him there also.
Speed? I'll concede and say Colossus MAY be faster.
Skill? Colossus is skilled for the reasons you stated. But Thing is a notch ahead.
Strength? Check his respect thread. Compare it to Thing struggling to lift an Iron Man robot.
Durability? Yeah - ****in' A, this is one that isn't even close. Compare how each has taken blows from Wolverine's claws, for example.
Sliced thing like a fine cheese. Colossus? There were some sparks. Whoopie.
Speed? Colossus is faster. Meh, next?
Skill? Thing was a world class boxer, yes? Boxing is HARDLY enough to get you by. Trust me, I practiced American Boxing earlier in my life before I took up MMA. There are a lot of things that you do in Boxing that are BAD to do in a 'real' fight.
Weaving, for example. Great to do in boxing, but in an MMA fight, you're asking to be taken down or kicked in the head.
Also, Colossus has not only been trained by Cyclops and Wolverine, he is on his own an accomplished Judoka.
So, tell me again, what advantages does the Thing hold?
Oh...that's right...none?
Okay, just checking.
