nah man, champ was going to kill him, it's a hell of a willpower/stamina feat for the thing but you must consider the stakes he was fighting for. thanos oneshoted him here and his smoldering corpse puts champion to shame.though, we must remember that champion had the power gem when he fought thanos. thor had the power gem when he fought thanos a time (+ "warrior madness"😉 and thanos did pretty well so there is consistancy there.
thanos being stronger than unamped thor is completely credible.
How well the Thing would do and has done against Thanos has no importance here at all. You posted a scan of Thanos knocking the Champion backwards. I stated -jokingly by the way- that it was nothing the Thing couldn't do.
I don't care if either Thanos or Champion would decimate the Thing. And it should be noted that it wasn't completely one sided. As I recall, the Thing shattered Champion's ribs and gave in some good licks.
You actually made a good point as I forgot that the Champion did not have the Power Gem at the time of his fight with the Thing. If Thanos punched Champion in that scene from a head to head starting position, I concede. Thanos might not have done any damage but I don't think the Thing can budge him to that extent straight up. Not when the Champion has the Power Gem. Although, I recall Thanos grabbing Champion's hair from behind and then socking him. The Thing could accomplish that. Champion is a physical beast but he can be taken by surprise.
Do you really want to start a Thanos/Thor debate?
Thor was not under Warrior Madness in Blood and Thunder. What consistency are you referring to? Thanos being able to fight Power Gem wielders? Sure. The same can be said for Thor looking back at his record with Drax.
Thanos should have the edge on regular Thor physically. At least on average.
My initial point stands. The Thing wouldn't have added anything significant to the scuffle that included Thor with Thanos outside a distraction or an annoyance.
