His advantage in strength is nothing to write home about.
His strength is clearly something that Sabretooth can cope with. The guy laughed at Sasquatch's punching him in the face, He killed Wendigo, KO'd Rogue, beat up on Warbird, and stomped on Killpower (A guy who stalemated classic Hercules in arm wrestling)...
And all this was before his HF went into hyper overdrive after HOM.
Speed? What speed advantage? The one you made up? Namor's never had a speed advantage when it comes to high end streeters, it's why Spidey and DD have played tag all over his face, why Captain America has put the boots to him and given him all hell time and time again, why Black Panther was able to cope with him, and why his been stabbed punched or gutted every time he's encountered Wolverine.
Flight? Yeah that's nice, but that doesn't help him in a straight fight with Sabretooth since they're both melee fighters.
Durability? Pfffttt Wolverine can gut him, and proved that his bone claws were capable of going through someone who had a stronger durability than himself. Sabretooth's claws rend through Steel, Killpower, and Wendigo... If Sabretooth was trying to punch his way into winning this fight you might have a point, but everyone knows that ain't how he fights...
Funny though, Sinister's supermen had Namor level strength and durability, flight, actual super speed (a real speed advantage), heat vision, and a healing factor, and Creed STILL ran through two of them like he was havin fun.
Namor wins via plot device. 😐

1. those are nice examples...except sas, rogue, wendigo, nor warbird are as strong as Namor. Also, some of those tend to job.
2. Speed as in flying...he can be hard for Sabretooth to get ahold of if he flies around
3. Wolverine has 1 foot long claws that could really injure Namor. He could rend steel? that's nice...steel doesn't fight back or dodge though.
4. Sinister's supermen jobbed.

1. If you think Sas and Wendigo (a creature that regularly goes rounds with Savage Hulk) aren't on Namor's level when he's out of water you're out of your mind.
2. In a straight fight it wouldn't matter since Namor would have to engage him in melee at some point.
3. And? Sabretooth has 6inch claws that could still injure Namor seeing how Namor ain't that big. He turned Wendigo into a fur coat for God's sakes.
4. In spite of the fact that they were written into a Sabretooth heavy comic to show how badass Sabretooth was. 🙄

One conversation with you about Sabes vs. Holocaust and you brand me for life. I still fail to see where AOA Sabes becomes a bad point of reference for what 616 Sabes can do when everything they've got to compare between the two shows 616 superor. 😬

Dude... U read the latest Namor mini series? Namor went vicious on Logan... smeared Venom on the floor. Sabretooth shld thks God for his Healing Factor..or else Namor wld kill him!!
Namor went vicious on Logan huh? Yeah, they were exchanging cheap shots until Namor took a plot device dip into the nearest swimming pool.
I'm talking about a straight fight where he doesn't have the ocean or swimming pools to jump into to restore him to a full bill of health.
And smearing Gargan Venom isn't anything worth writing home about.
Gargan Venom's been pwned by Spiderman in h2h, got punked out of Jack Flag, Steel Spider, and needed help dealing with Cap. Like Peter Parker said, he's just a loser in the Venom suit.

Namor was smacking the **** out of Wolverine prior to the swimming pool incident.

Correct.
