I know Logan is very durable but if he gets punches to Logan's head that is a tremendous amount of force. As I said earlier, the adamantium will prevent Logan's skull from being cracked but the concussive force still reaches his brain stem. And that's where knockouts come from.
*sigh*
okay.. again.. yes in a realistic sense you're absoulutely right.. but we're talking about comic book characters..
whether you want to argue PIS or a further mutation in wolverine's head that keeps his brain from sloshing around in his skull.. to "his healing factor works so fast he rcovers from most knockouts before he even goes unconcious"... the point remains the same.. wolverine HAS..CAN..AND ALWAYS WILL take blows from emmensly strong characters to the head and get up from them... you can't ignore a character's attributes just because they don't make sense to you...

With the claws taken into consideration, Logan's reach is much greater than Namor's so it would be difficult for Namor to actually get inside to where he could land some blows. But it's also dangerous for Logan to get close enough to do more than put shallow and/or superficial wounds on Namor. When he is close enough to actually run Namor through he is also in Namor's striking range. Logan would have to cut a vital spot, like a major artery, to drop Namor fast. It's conceivable that even if Namor were seriously wounded he would be able to KO Logan before losing too much blood pressure and passing out.
i fail to see how that's likely since namor has failed to do that on a couple occassions before going down to such trauma.
