Fights in comics by themselves are not strong arguments, unless they are villains taking on entire teams.
Thor fights down to his opponents all the time, Namor being one of them. He has ko'd a soaking wet Namor with a punch before as well.So thor fights down to namor under five different writers from five different time-periods? Also that never happened, namor was down but up in the next page and fighting.
Here is a detailed analysis between Namor and Thor/ Hercules

Hulk is super variable, especially around the times Namor was competitive with him. It doesn't mean he's anywhere close to actually being on Hulk's strength level just because he gets to share some punches with him long ago.
Namor has had more fights with hulk than anybody including Thor and has always given hulk a fight and has a better record against the hulk than any hero save black bolt. Some of the time he even looked superior to him
[b]The HulkFight number One. Namor looks superior but it's more posturing than anything else really. Avengers #3

Thing is another good example. He's quadrillions of times weaker than Hulk. Literally. But you can always expect him to get at least one good blow in against the Hulk, since comic fights always undersell differences to make things a bit more eventful.Actually once Thing got his strength increased twofolds and then he was perfectly even with hulk in strength.
Namor is closer to Thing in strength than Thor, and especially Hulk.
Namor's actual strength feats that belong to him(and not just lazy osmosis afforded due to fights), are things that Kratos can match, hence the thread. [/B]
