Shut up, you scrub.
I'm talking about the fight in Sentry/Hulk 1.

His fights with Thor, even when Thor's handicapped to melee, are still some of the best fights in comics, especially when Thor is able to do stuff like shatter Celestial armor with his strikes or stagger beings such as Galactus.
They are great fights.
No testaments to Hulk's ability to fight Thor on equal terms. But here, I'll go around.
By your own admission Thor is handicapped to not using his strongest physical means or energy manipulation or weather control.
Hulk is barely edging out wins in these fights (and its arguable).
Now in your head, this makes Hulk equal to Superman and Thor.
Why?
Because when Thor is performing at his very best, he's injuring Galactus and Celestials.
Okay, thank you.

Both Sentry and Hulk were holding back at that point. And Sentry's higher end feats definitely put him on Superman's level with some room to argue he could possibly be above it.
Okay. I get it.
Sentry and Hulk fight. Hulk can't touch him.
They fight him later after Hulk's had an upgrade.
Both are holding back apparently, even though the Sentry is letting Hulk hit him.
They both burn out.
Sentry at his peak, when he's not holding back/in this arc, is almost on Superman's level.
Ergo, Hulk is on superman's level.
Why? Because he and Sentry (at a lowpoint) burnt eachother out. Okay!

Namor and Hercules have consistently given fits to the likes of Thor in close quarters. Hulk's gone from stalemating Herc to basically rearranging his face with a handful of strikes. Hercules wasn't fighting back, but fighting back or not, Savage Hulk wouldn't be able to deal that kind of damage to Herc. Green Scar was.
Another good one. Namor and Hercules do well against a handicapped Thor, who by your own admission is not on Superman's level in physicality (Namor hasn't but sure, let's go along with your insanity).
When Hercules is fighting they stalemate and when he's not Hulk can rearrange his face.
This puts Hulk on Superman's level.
How?
Well, when Herc's not fighting Hulk did a lot of damage to him and Savage Hulk couldn't do that. Okay!

Just looking at Greg Pak's run of Hulk alone and it's clear - painfully so - that Hulk is absolutely on the level of Thor and Superman if not with the potential to go beyond them. So yeah, taking that into account, if that doesn't give the impression that Hulk has the means to operate on Superman's level, then yeah, that absolutely is lowballing.
Okay, I get it.
One writer has Hulk (by no feats) on level with Thor and Superman and going beyond them.
I disagree with this.
Ergo I am only playing to Hulk's low feats, you know, mentioning some of the few wins the Hulk has against heralds. This is lowballing.
Me disagreeing with ambiguous feats of various versions of Hulk, but regardless of that bringing up what few wins he has against heralds Handicapped-Thor and Hyperion. THIS IS LOWBALLING
