Partially yes. But it's also because Carol won a headbutt against Thanos. So both of them have a decent feat of headbutting a super powered opponent.

Superman

Supes

Carol, easily. She tanked a headbutt from an IG wielder as if it was nothing.

Thanos wasn’t harnessing the power of the gems at the time, she stopped him from closing his hand.

She was stopping him putting the gauntlet on wasn’t she? He didn’t have to close his hand to use it did he? Phuck my memory of this film is lacking

Yeah it seems you need to have a closed hand to use the gauntlet. That’s why Dr strange told his cape to not let a Thanos close his hand in IW.

I think on different occasions he had gauntlet on and another he didn’t.

Oh right okay then

He couldn't use the IG on her at that point because she was holding his hand open. Remember that the power stone alone was enough to dispatch her, so obviously the full power of the IG would annihilate her.

With the stips at hand, I lean Supes.

If Carol can use her shield, the odds tip in her favor IMO (the OP stipulations don't seem to allow her to have a shield up though).

Superman absolutely wins the headbutt contest.

She's definitely allowed to power up as Binary. That shouldn't break any of the rules in OP.

Just to play devil's advocate:

Superman was rocked harder by WW's headbutt than CM was by Thanos' headbutt. And I'm pretty sure Thanos is stronger than WW.

Carol has her forcefield up?

What forcefield?

But yes she's allowed to use whatever powers she has at her disposal as long as her attack is still a headbutt and she breaks none of the rules in OP.

Superman has just come back to life. His head was already a bit messed up.

Psychologically, yes his head was messed up. But this fight is purely physical.
