Damn. Beast pretty much humiliated Sabretooth there for the most part.Did anyone else notice, too, how confident Beast seemed? Like he knew that he was able to handle Creed? And then he was able to pretty easily handle him. That's the kind of Beast I'm talking about here. That's how he should be.
Bring that Beast back. 😬
I think we are looking at two different fights here. Wasn't that Sabretooth's hand around Beast's neck getting ready to tear him a new breathing hole when Cyclops decided to get involved? Beast didn't embarrass himself or anything, but I wouldn't say he beat Sabretooth by any stretch of the imagination. He roughed him up a bit, but easily handled him? Pffft. Without his friends to save his ass, Beast would have died. Sabretooth didn't need his friends did he? Oh, yeah. Sabretooth has no friends. Poor Sabretooth.
Since the order of the gauntlet is all messed up, I'm just going to say Beast would only be able to win a majority over Bane because Bane would find it very difficult to land a clean hit on Beast and Scorpion because he's a moron and is constantly getting beaten by people he is physically superior to. Beast/Kraven would be a toss up and everybody else on this list would be too much for Beast to handle. I like Beast and all, but he just doesn't have what it takes to win a majority over proven fighters like Wolverine and Sabretooth, or someone who is physically superior like Spider-Man. The power possessed by the rest of the list speaks for itself. Tigra getting torn in half by Hulk would be a good example of how the fights would go if Beast somehow gets near the end of this gauntlet.
Am I the only one that thinks that astonishing x-men Beast bio is little messed up? He's stated to have class 5 strength, which is a lot more than Spider-man's, but in the strength section he only has strength of 2 tons. Either they've mistyped it as 2 tons, if they meant 20- 29 tons, or even 200 ( 🙄 ) or they've just placed him at range 5 as he should be at 2.
The McCoy Manifesto
Beast is, or was, supposed to be strong. After his ordeal with the touch of Pestilence and the absorbtion of Infectia's kiss, he was reported to be in the 70 ton range. A response to a letter in X-Factor #33 said that if he were to arm-wrestle the Thing (at the time in his strongest "spiky" form, in which he almost defeated the Mr. Fixit version of Hulk in one of the greatest melees ever recounted) the match would be "more even than you might think."
Lest you think only Louise Simonson bought into Hank McCoy's new brawn, Beast also figured prominently in that year's Avengers annual, surprising Hulk and Hercules with his strength.
Yet every stat sheet Marvel has ever done on Beast says he is as strong "as a jungle gorilla." To recap, in the original X-Men days when McCoy was a human with big feet, he was as strong as a jungle gorilla. Later he experimented on himself at the Brand Corporation and changed into his improved furry form, in which he was as strong as a jungle gorilla. After X-Factor's inception he reverted to human form with no apparent change in strength. Then his strength was increased at the cost of his considerable intellect by Apocalypse's horseman Pestilence. This condition was exacerbated by Infectia, leaving the Beast's strength augmented, finally, to the heretofore unreachable heights of the jungle gorilla.
Who said Marvel has continuity problems? The next time they do a JLA/Avengers cross-over Beast can get his blue ass handed to him by Gorilla Grodd. Maybe then Chris Claremont will be happy.
Don't even talk to me about Grant Morrison
This is how strong beast SHOULD be, but I guess writers, never upgrade him even thow they say he get's stronger after every mutation, they will still say he's as strong as a jungle gorilla, kind of strange, but still I don't see beast getting past wolverine, because even thow he should be stronger faster smarter and all that wolverine has one thing that beast doesn't got or atleast not at the same level wolverine got his healing factor.

you are so right about his strength feats, i got tired that every time the x-men fight someone beast is the first one to get his ass kicked, and now in civil war x-men #3 he got his ass kicked again with a punch that sent him flying, he got upgrades over upgrades and still he never showes any great feture of his strength 😠 😠 , i guess its because he is not a cash cow like wolverine 😠
