3) All out brawl. First knockout wins.
Kraven has all of his physical enhancements and a large knife but no guns.

Honestly, Oeming's reasoning for that scene was asinine. Since Thor has Mjolnir and so on, Hercules should be slightly more skilled. Since when are comics about being fair? Hercules/Thor have had like 5 other previous fights and this skill advantage was never shown or hinted as far as I can recall. Hopefully it'll be ignored in future fights.
Time line wise, I think that was actually their second fight. There are ways to explain away that scene.
All that being said, not many people would be able to break out of that hold. Thor had just gone toe to toe with Hercules and being put in that position by someone as strong as Hercules would be no picnic.
Superman and Gladiator would have the best shot in my opinion. I just wish Thor had at least attempted to break out of that hold and not simply stand there.
What? He was put in a hold. He would have passed out eventually. That doesn't mean he can't move. He didn't even attempt anything. It was just stupid.
There are much better ways to show that one opponent is more skilled than the other.

Whatever slight skill advantage Hercules has apparently doesn't make any difference unless he gets the chance to put Thor in a hold. Or something.
Thor's broken out of nearly the exact same hold created by Hercules by the way. Like I said, it was their second fight. Perhaps Thor went Karate Kid and did some training. With beings physically identical on average, any skill advantage should be evident. Whatever, I'm too tired to give a shit.
In your dreams. And MM's.
