Superman should've just pummeled him after that statement and put him into the Source Wall.
I think Orion performs better than most top tier foes would against Thanos, in general. Check out Thanos' match against Gamora - in which he WAS using energy blasts - to see how he generally does against skilled martial artists in hand to hand battle, then imagine what someone much stronger and more durable would be capable of. I don't think Orion would win, but I think he'd give a better accounting of himself than many others, ESPECIALLY than energy projectors like Silver Surfer and Green Lantern (Thanos seems especially capable against energy projectors).

Using Gamora to show how well Thanos can handle himself in a hand to hand battle, isn't the best way to figure out how well he'd do against Orion. Gamora dealt with many able combatants in the Infinity Crusade series (and sub series), making some of the best look as if they were moving in slow motion. Shyt! Gamora would do the same dance on Orion if they sparred (they were playing the fight was not serious).
I have a hard time seeing Orion "handle Classic Thor and the Thing," like they were paperweights, yet a weaker incarnation of Thanos tossed them around like ninety nine pound weaklings, even one shotting the Thing whom even the Champion was unable to muster with multiple combos.
No this would be a complete stompfest in Thanos' favor, leaving poor Orion playing squash on the curb, blowing bubbles out of his nose.

Who exactly are you referring to?

You need to re-read that fight and the thread title.
