Superman holds back too, though, and the canonicity is ambiguous at best.Superman for the narrow win, imo.
I'm pretty sure he was being mentally influenced and was more brutal than he would usually be in that arc. Hence his more likely to cut loose. That's one of the reasons he was such an *******. Or am I mistaken?
is he faster - yes
fast enough to be untouchable by Thor? - no IMO.
after all this is an eternal debate which will never end...oh well...
Thor has shown good response against speedsters before as superman has shown good resistance against magic which won't make it a stomp in favor of Thor due to mjolnir.
IMO thor takes it due to versatility (energy drain, major magic blasts etc...)
as I said it is a close fight

you are putting it as if thor will be able to touch superman he is donei will admit that thor will be able to land some shots on superman but overall superman is faster and he will be doing more damage giving more punches and he will just win
in a brawl without any CIS or PIS superman will beat up thor with couple of punches because when not holding back and going all out superman is a stronger brawler then thor , superman wehile not holding back is able to ko people like solomon grundy or zod with 2 punches, thor never show any strike power to put out enemies of his league or stronger then him with couple of blows , superman while all out beat the hell out of darkseid while thor cant get over that edge and defeat people like kurse or surtur overall superman edge thor is both speed strength and punching power in a brawl superman will win it
if thor will use all his powers and all his arsenal he wins this fight

Supes win..their strength and durability is probably the same..but Supes is way faster than Thor..
what about magic weakness or energy absorption in Thor's favor.
Plus Thor has shown speed to counter speedsters... Not that supes won't have an advantage but it isn't like he would be untouchable imo
