Just curious, what are you basing this on? any particular feat that stands out?
I mean his blast has sent Galactus flying (that may be a high outlier) but still it was impressive
I don't see his punch being able to do nearly the same to Galactus

Keep in mind that I'm not talking about Thanos's max strength because he can also amp, I'm talking about his "normal" strength level.

Well if Surfer can match a blast and we're talking about even more energy than that being channeled into physical strength then why don't see Surfer as being Thanos's equal in strength here? Unless I'm mistaken UT was also addressing the theoretical topic of Surfer channeling all of his power reserves into a single punch.Keep in mind that I'm not talking about Thanos's max strength because he can also amp, I'm talking about his "normal" strength level.
we could all conjecture about what surfer could potentially amp his strength to and come with vastly different conclusions
or we could go by his actual amping of his strength in onpanel demonstrations to determine realistic levels of amp

I've already given my opinion of the outcome without getting into theoreticals...

With his hammer Thor would win. In a fight with no hammer though, I see Surfer's durability/speed giving him more of an edge than Thor's strength.

Surfer is durable but he will not last that long when Thor is pounding him with Mjolnir.Surfer does have an speed advantage but what good is speed when he can not use energy blasts.
Surfer will get in few hits but Mjolnir is to powerful.
mjolnir is powerful but so is the surfer board. all of these things are up there in the 1337 ultrahard near-indestructible class along with Cap's shield etc

Except that Surfer's board was shattered by God-Cable.

Well this thread is just hand to hand and not overall power. Also thor gets his hamer. Most people agree that surfer>>>supes overall
Thor should win this with his hammer, but if there was no hammer I don't see him being able to hurt the Surfer. Let's look at this from another angle, if Thor fought the Hulk without his hammer it is common belief that the Hulk would maul him, yet the Hulk has yet to prove that he can hurt the Surfer with his fists.

plus Surfer has mental command over it and can use it during the fight to constantly distract thor (ramming it in thor's back while they fight)
Still, the Surfer is more dependent on energy attacks than Thor, so I'm inclined to give this to Goldilocks. But I could see it going either way.
