The Thing possesses superhuman strength, enabling him to lift (press) 85 tons. The Thing's body is able to withstand extremes of temperature from -75° to 800° Fahrenheit for up to an hour before exposure or heat prostration occurs. He can withstand the explosive effects of armor-piercing bazooka shells (15 pounds of high explosives) against his skin with no injury. He has had a great deal of experience at hand-to-hand combat, and was a formidable opponent in physical combat even before becoming the Thing. What can Beast do to hurt Ben?

Good man badabing. Good man.
Hey, didn't you used to rep Thing for the Avengers?

Beast has taken out opponents stronger than himself on numerous occasions. Why can't he do it again here? His tactical mind and superior speed, agility, and reflexes will all play a pivotal part here.
I stand by my Thing 7/10.

Metalmanx, tell us how Beast can win against these stats for a random fight. There was no prep mentioned for this fight, and that would be Beast's best hope.
I mentioned nothing about prep time. Beast doesn't need it. He's almost as good at thinking on his feet as Spidey is.
Beast has subdued Juggernaut using his superior agility and such to take him down. He can do the same thing to Thing. In fact, he can also use his surroundings to inflict damage on Thing as well.

holy this thread has been on for like 30 min and its already 50 posts, i just realized that. its not like beast is going to be knocked out in the first 10 sec. he could land some blows and in the end lose but not 9/10.
I never said he wouldn't land some blows. I think he'll run around for a little while but I don't think he can take more than two direct hits from Thing. Maybe 3 if he's reeeeeeally lucky. Sides.
Beast doesn't have the powerset to win anything here. Sure he's taken out powerhouses before but Thing is different from most powerhouses. He's not stupid. He's not one-track minded. He can really fight. And he'll adjust to the situation.
