There is one little problem....
Gladiator is a GIGANTIC Jobber. He's almost as bad as Galactus - as Galactus is always STARVING, Gladiator always has his weird inferiority complex creep up. I'm not entirely sure how to accurately gauge his "Full confidence" power level. Thusly, I'm not going to enter any vote into this debate. Just pointing out how difficult it really is to make an unbiased decision with ANY fight including the Gladiator. Who the hell knows what his 'confidence level' was at the times of the feats he pulled off?
this is kinda tricky cuz hyperion is an eternal..and the same way makkari focused all his cosmic powers into running, so much so that he doesnt manipuluate energy like the rest of his compatriots anymore, so i guess you could assume the same for hyperion that he focused all his inherent cosmic powers into speed, strentgh and invulnerbalirty..
.but a big misconception about gladiator is that he is massivley depowered when he doubts himself. the thing is all that does is temporarily leave him open for an attack, but his bone and muscle tissue dont "un-densify" to make him feel something and his powers dont disappear, it just leaves him open thats all.. that being said a full cinfidence glads should prove difficult for king hyperion to beat, but the simple fact that he's killed scores of super heroes all at once time and time again KH is no pushover either so im gonna say reasonable showings by both until they finally say screw it and stop..i say its a tie, i dont see any way one could kill the other
King Hype still kicks his alien ass all over the place. Gladiator, even confident, had an EXTREMELY hard time with Hyperion. And only won because of his superior fighting skills. They were shown to be dead even in strength, heat vision, speed, everything except fighting skills. This Hyperion has better fighting skills than the regular Hyperion, plus is MUCH stronger, faster, more invulnerable, etc. And on top of all that, breaking King Hyperion's neck wont do jack shit. He'll just snap it back. King Hyperion was NEVER knocked out, or beaten straight-up, because it's nearly impossible. He was only beaten twice, once beating himself and the other time with a sand trick. Even 2 regular Hyperions, who are each physically (strength, speed, durability) equal to Gladiator, couldnt do much more than piss King Hyperion off. King Hyperion wins this.
Glads wins I think in what amounts to a good brawl but Glads is just flat out better.
KH's feats are very kind of abstracted.
Oh he beat two universes worth of heroes yet he can not stop an asteroid with his Flash Vision. The same Flash Vision that crippled him.
Oh he said he beat a Galactus, yet Mimic can KO him going at half the speed of light and with only class 75 strength.
KH in terms of the Top-Tier guys was very unimpressive.
Originally posted by KutuluYeah because those are very concrete feats right. The Exiles also beat Galactus once.
Well for one he killed every living being in his universe, including every superhero and villain on Earth, and Galactus as well.
KH's actual feats were never that good compared to other High-Tier characters.
The asteroid getting KOed by Mimic, neck snapped by Namorita.
