This is an interesting thread. Bizzaro is very powerful, being a shitty Superman clone, but he'd also be particular susceptible to Loki's illusions and manipulation. Also, Loki being very powerful with magic really stacks the deck.
I think Loki would be a terrible opponent for Bizzaro. He'd be better off against a less manipulative sorcerer like Dr. Strange or Zatanna who'd be more likely to go zap for punch, and doesn't have the durability/regeneration of Loki.
I specifically highlighted Loki's intelligence/manipulation and contrasted that to traditional power vs. power fight mechanics of someone like Strange. I didn't even get into power levels really.
Classic Loki easily shits on Dr. Doom in his kingdom, and YA Loki can go toe-to-toe with the most powerful version of Dr. Strange we've seen yet, and I highlighted his intelligence. Pound for pound, Asgardinan magic is arguably the most potent in the MU and Bizzaro has a magic weakness (At least it was?) and I picture Loki outsmarting Bizzaro or talking him into surrendering.
When did something that reasonable, become fanboyish?

You really need to stop shitting in the same river you bathe in, it's not good for your intelligence. Killing the last few remaining brain cells you have left.
1) Ghost Rider jumped Loki from behind while he was trapping Steve, and then put him in his trunk off-panel. Loki was unharmed the entire time and in the same comic, GR was pretty strong (Traded blows with new She-Hulk).
2) Giant-Celestial amped She-Hulk stomped on Loki from behind and then he got jumped by Strange who tied him up with the bands of Cytorrak. He was unharmed.
...Annnnnd the entire thing went according to his plan.
Offensively, he trapped/held simultaneously Thor/Iron Man/Captain Marvel, and was casually beating off Dr. Strange. He even got shock-teleported into the Sun and casually shielded Steve.
So you referenced a story where Loki was able to masterfully orchestrate a complicated series of events, manipulating both the Avengers (Including BP, Steve, Tony Stark etc.) and the Dark Celestials, showed vast offensive powers and durability, as evidence Bizzaro would just...punch him into submission? LOL.
Based on that comic, an easily outsmarted Superman clone is no threat to even YA Loki. He ends up working for Loki, or getting teleported to Jotunheim after being abused for a bit. .
