Funny, but isn't this the definition of low balling?
It's like Carver pulling out the Konvict fight any time Superman vs Hulk comes up.

Depends. I don't know who that guy beating up Hercules is. If they're on the same level physically, I would say, at least at the time being no, it's not lowballing when we haven't seen anything to establish this as a lowball of Hercules' skill.

It's probably that character Smurph just called a loser.

Eh, I think that just brings us back to the flaw in the comparison, because (without necessarily agreeing on they'd fare one-on-one with Nef), I would give Hulk and hammerless Thor odds against Hercules.Herc can hang but (much like Diana...) his much vaunted skill edge is always less show, more tell. Again, I just see the "combo to KO" Herc as a forum concept.
Hercules anally raped Thor in h2h, Thor needed to resort to summoning lightning.
That grab in third to last panel was immaculate.

My mind has changed. Nefaria has no chance.

And the point is just that fights where Herc uses skill to "close the strength gap" don't seem to go the way Stoic describes. I'm not lowballing Herc, just wondering where we can see Stoic's Herc in the comics.

So what are you looking for? Skill feats?

Targeting muscles to control a foe is pretty good skill. No reason he couldn't do the same with his bare finger.

All he has is lip service.

Yes, that one.
Herc was drunk af and he still raped Thor --- worse, Thor admitted to us - the readers - that Herc was his superior in the pure melee combat.
