So being unexpectedly attacked multiple times with weapons specific to your weakness, while not even aggressively countering or fighting all out and instead showing leniency, stopping to speak several different times? This is how black panther "beat" Namor. Even after hulk broke up the fight Namor was still fine and never attempted to attack BP every time their scuffles( ie BP sneak attacking Namor with special weapons) were broken up. The one time Namor back handed him while in reeds grasp, he quickly yelled for Namor to stop before "it goes too far" Why? Because we all now what would happen if Namor went all out against him....or at least we should. What that was was Tchalla actively trying to kill Namor, with the latter holding back. Flip that situation and BP would be dead.
Everyone knows Namor is stronger than T'Challa. It's ridiculous to ignore the fact that T'Challa has carried equipment that puts Namor on his knees in the majority of their encounters. The "desert suns" or however they're called, sap Namor of all strength and they're a part of T'Challa's standard equipment. Namor never attempts to dodge, he never attempts to prepare. We know T'Challa has something that instantly causes Namor to lose the fight, I don't understand how Namor pulls this out.

Do you read Black Panther? He's getting adequate praise for someone who has repeatedly used tech to put down the opponent he is matched up with here. Black Panther has a device that instantly saps Namor's strength, i don't understand how this fight is fair. Namor knows T'Challa has this, but he hasn't done anything to defend against it in any of their confrontations.

Then how strong is BP? 3 tonner 5 tonner range? I beleive that a fully dehydrated Namor is in Spiderman base Venom strength range. BP can beat him in a fight then, but its not as if he's gonna get one-shotted. I am not worried about my credibilty with you. And just to let you know, I think BP one shotting Karnak is PIS.

Because only BP is given a functioning brain in these conjectures. 😛
There are times that speed must give way to agility, but when a character has both speed, and agility, against a character that only has speed, the agile character tends to win. How many times has the Black Panther been compared to the wind in terms of movement speed? Tack on tech, cunning, and superior intellect, and Namor should lose this. Strength will only get Namor so far. I'd be surprised if Namor wins when the confrontation finally begins.
Originally posted by TrackzI don't understand how some of you don't understand that in they're fight Namor was holding back and BP was trying to kill him with prep(special weapons). He was sneak attacked everytime. He only back handed him once( while trying to reason with him AND being held back) and even that put BP right on his ass momentarily. He dodged Namor once....I don't even think he's faster honestly.

Bottom line....BP was trying to kill Namor with prep and by taking advantage of Namor not even really fighting back. That and sneak attacking him. Sheesh.

Not sure what point your trying to make. Are you suggesting that if both characters are facing each other and are ready to throw down, Namor would take it (even though we know BP will have prepared for the battle)?
I have a couple issues with that scenario. First, I don't feel Namor is even close to being smart enough to counter anything the Panther has planned for him. Second, I don't feel Namor is anywhere as good a fighter as T'Challa, hence the Panther should be able to be effective with whatever he has planned for Namor.
I don't care if it was a sneak attack or not, when a character like Namor (who has the biggest ego in the Marvel Universe) is made to kneel and cries out in pain the entire time, that's some serious stuff. I just cant see Namor being able to do anything about a T'Challa with only one task on his mind. Too may resources and too smart for Namor.
Dear lord....
He was ALREADY prepped for Namor in that encounter. He blindsided him multiple times. He wasn't even taken seriously THEN, as anyone including Namor himself knows that he could easily kill him if he had a mind too. You guys are ranting and raving about that appearance as if it shows that BP has some advantage. When in actuality it shows that Namor is so out of his league that this was the only way he could have a good showing against him. Prep, sneak attacks, and a sh!tload of leniency(which is totally out of character). This is essentially Batman Vs Superman. He's gonna need type of suit to actually fight Namor, or he'll just be a smear on his fist.
