Superman obviously was more powerful than before the sunamp. If he wasnt why in the hell woul dhe even bother amping himself if it made no difference at all? You dont even make sense at all.
Why do you do this? Show me where I've claimed that sun amping gives him new powers? Or do you misunderstand my usage of the word "amping" i.e. amplifying. Must I spell it out for you? If you're going to make a point, you better make sure you know what you're talking about.
As I said I don't care what he did or didn't do, I want you to be able to identify the difference amping made in that fight. Where did the fact that he amped manifest itself in that fight? Because all he did was shout at WW while basically breaking her wrist and freezing her.
The actions speak louder than any narrative, if Superman doesn't do anymore than he could have done without any amping, what are we supposed to seriously consider here? He's either under performing. Or the Sun amp merely doesn't manifest itself in anyway. His freeze breath isn't more effective than it normally is. And breaking WW's wrist isn't more than a regular Superman can handle, her wrist a probably - outside of her fingers - the easiest spot to break.

WW also said she was holding back. Huge point right there. She wasnt fighting to kill and was holding back.
Again I don't really care who was holding back or not. Superman certainly doesn't need WW to hold back, that's probably the most irrelevant point you could make if you think about it.
Superman is no stranger to fights to the death with top tiers and beyond, and besides we have a counter statement by WW where she admits that Superman will physically overcome her if she doesn't do something to make him get back to his senses.

When did Kalibak show superspeed? Where,scans please because i think you are reaching for that one. Scans of Mantis as well.
In that same comic Kalibak demonstrates an increased degree of super speed (which along with Orion, Mantis, Lightray and a number of other New Gods, he always possessed). Again it's one of Mantis' abilities gifted to him by DS.

Again many writers dont have Superman using superspeed and just brawling. Its in his character to do so. All in all the writers decide this not us.
But every writer recognizes Superman' superspeed. Maybe not always displaying it in combat (because the writers know he doesn't need to). In any story arch where he has to get somewhere or do something quickly the writers deploy his speedster aspect. Even in comics like one year later (when Supes is just regaining his powers) he's able to stop bullets shot from hitting their target even though he has to travel quite a distance, and this is a very weak Superman who's just regained his ability to fly.
