IOW nobody actually said it.Like I said, strawmanning is just what srank does in Thor threads.
If someone says "Thor is as fast as Gladiator," and Gladiator has FTL speed, then what that person is really saying is "Thor has faster than light speed." Simple. No straw manning necessary.

Who said that "Thor is as fast as Gladiator, and Gladiator has FTL speed"?

On the last page of this thread alone Jack, Damb and Rage all implied that Thor had FTL speed to match Glads...

Then Jake agreed with the above quote.
There are several examples on the last couple pages of this thread alone, and its a 30 someodd page thread. If someone bothered to go back and read it all, I'm sure there are dozens of examples of deluded Thorbags who believe Thor has FTL combat speed and reflexes. Thor fans just can't admit that Thor isn't a speedster because then they are giving Superman credit by extension.

Rage was mocking h1a8 he even says as much in a different post, give me a few seconds and I'll find it.
Actually, it was the same post

Thor at his best is as fast as Gladiator.
Therefore Thor stomps. I should have used H1n8's approach more often, debating this is way so much easier
I didn't get the h1n8 reference, I haven't seen him post too much in threads I'm in I don't think.
Even mockingly the notion that Thor's best feats are the equal of Gladiator's is flat out wrong. Glad's has 100x FTL speed feats. Alternatively Thor fans scrounging the bottom of the barrel and posting scans of him matadoring random creations of the High Evolutionary, as though that means anything.

Dam said something that implied it on that page too. Also I know Rage has flat out said Thor has FTL speed, but that might have been on -gasp- comicvine! Dun dun dun
Ewwww I'm not wading back into that den of inequity and depravity, to hunt down quotes!!! Well... I might later, I haven't decided. 😎
Anyway, I wouldn't hold anything Rage said in comicvine against him, knowing that place he was probably provoked with something so mind meltingly stupid that we couldn't even comprehend it without seeing it ourselves.
Now I'm going to try and get a work out in before class. Have gun gentleman... and Silent Master.
lol
I'm certain that Rage's quote from the other page was made in jest to mock the kind of logic and often baseless style of debating h1 engages in.
Besides, any one with any passing knowledge on both characters would agree if we decide to play the High End Feat game between Gladiator and Thor, Kallark is going to be utterly decimated. And clinging to Gladiator moving at 100x lightspeed in a straight path (wowzers) and breaking a giant ass rock (wowzers x2!) doesn't make it any less than a stomp.
Comicvine is the worst site I have been on in my entire life. I joined like 4 months back and it is terrible. Everyone there admits Thanos (current) beats Odin 10/10. Majestics can beat Galactus...etc, etc. Hulk gets no respect...Spiderman pulls a majority against him. Everyone on the board voted that in a arm wrestling contest between Supes and WBH, Supes would rip Hulks arms off due to Super speed.
As for this thread...when I see Thor fighting like this...then I will agree he could keep up with people like Supes and Gladiator.

The funny thing is that a single Mjolnir toss from Thor is more than capable of doing what Gladiator did and has done so on panel. Hell, Thor can easily charge in a straight path while flying and just crash into people without mercy.
Which he's also done.

While punching at super speed?

Those panels show Gladiator flying at superspeeds and taking out the opposition during his flight path. It certainly doesn't show the DBZ style dozens of fists to the face kind of blitz people think these kind of characters do...even though they don't.
A Mjolnir toss can easily be thrown at those levels of speeds and tag an entire room/area of hostiles. Thor himself can easily just accelerate that fast and barrel into enemies.
Nothing Gladiator did there is beyond Thor.
