There is a rare thing when a comic book character is more powerful in a movie than in comics. That goes for Shaw. I don't know if that's the case for any other comic book character in a movie. Spider-Man is good and could compare or rival his comic book counter part. But Shaw is actually more powerful than in comics.
Shaw was absorbing nuclear reactor and he didn't look to be overloaded anytime soon. Probably even comic Magneto could have some trouble with movie Shaw.
Shaw was a beast in the movie and he wins this.
Thor never showed a limit to his strength just like Shaw never showed a limit to his absorption. So it's a stalemate.

What the hell do you want, some kind of montage showing the Agent training?
Thor apparently defeated some of the most highly trained men in the world. He was incredibly effective at hand to hand combat. That was obviously what the creators were trying to portray.

Be stupid about it if you want. I thought it was obvious that Thor was intended to be skilled in hand to hand. There's a reason why they took so much time trying to develop a fighting style for Thor. He's supposed to be a brawler, but at the same time, highly effective.

You should start saying "Superman wins" every now and then, even if you don't think so. That way you'll fake intelligence.
