That's a faulty analogy.
We're discussing relative power and you want to discuss how much Thor can bench or whatever. The former is crucial here, the second is irrelevant.
Not to mention Thor's strength was literally cut in HALF. Here, Hercules is slightly weary. There's a difference between moving down an entire tier or two and not being a 100%.

What are you talking about? After Armak punches Hercules once, he's knocked down. Even on the TV, we see him lying down and it says he was defeated.
Hercules is JUST getting back up as Thor is flying back. What Krista said doesn't mean Hercules got back up and started trading shots again off-panel or something.
Maybe he wasn't completely unconscious (Even assuming we should take Hercules for his word as that might simply be pride talking) but as far as the fight went, he had lost.

Is it? Armak was overpowering Thor as well. So full power Thor would struggle with two tractors? Why not? If Thor hadn't been at 100% I'd give him same treatment.And here Herc looked better than Thor.
It is?
Armak getting the momentary advantage and choking Thor is a far cry from no selling his punch and taking the fight out of him with a single hit.
Not really as restraining is far from indicative of relative strength. You yourself have posted scans of Alan Scott restraining Superman for example.

Its the only fight where a result was made, Herc would choke out Thor in h2h. Thor has no such showings against Herc in h2h so the edge would go to Herc. Its like saying Let the battle begin doesn't matter since its a past story and Thor has stalemated Hulk after that.🙂
What? So it's the only recent fight that counts, even though they stalemated (Technically Thor actually won as Hercules was down and at his mercy) recently under Pak of all people? Stalemates are noted as well.
Again, it's chronologically their second fight. Thor got better at hand to hand or Hercules got worse. Either way, he, canonically, no longer has the skill edge. I know how you look to fuss about little details like that.
Also, you just said since Hercules beat Thor once, he beats him always, despite saying the exact opposite in the Superman/Wonder Woman thread just now. 😬
Again, stop trying to illicit a response from me. It's petty and you're not very good at it.
