Pretty much.
Thor isn't an idiot, he isn't going to wade into melee combat against someone who could potentially one shot him to get turned into a pin cushion. He isn't the Hulk he can't afford to let himself get hit so he can land blow of his own, he isn't going to get into a shot for shot slugfest with Wolverine.
Have none of you people seen a fight before? People don't even want to get hit by guys wearing padding gloves. Most fights are two people circling each other throwing jabs to try and make an opening in their opponents guard... now image one of those guys had a katar on each hand was actively trying to kill the other one. For the life of me I can't even imagine how people who think Thor would win picture this fighting playing out in their head... seriously is Wolverine sleeping or something?
Thor is going to be on the defensive the entire time. His primarily concern will be avoiding Wolverine's claws, koing Wolverine will be a distant secondary concern. Wolverine on the other hand could give a f@ck about getting hit. He is going to be on the offensive and he is a faster, smaller target, with a reach advantage, weaponry and a sizable skill advantage. It's a no brainer.
