Which shows me that you have zero proof of his propensity to do so against an unarmed, half naked (i.e. unarmoured) opponent.Thanks.
The best (and only one) you should have posted, was him against Superman - but I don't think he was trying to kill him there.
And Superman just punched him away.
Lol
That's the only way to fight with a bladed weapon. You cant ko an opponent with a sword. Any movie fight with a bladed weapon will show attempted strikes that can cause death or severe injury if landed.
You are arguing not only against how all fight scenes with bladed weapons are shown but against common sense.
With that said,
Imo it's not a loss (in the spirit of who is more formidable) if someone loses because the only way to win is to kill but they choose not to kill.
Plus Arthur knows Hulk is stronger than him.
Plus you are making shit up (your own rules of honor). There are no universal rules of honor. Imo it is not unhonorable to attempt to kill an unarmed combatant if the are more powerful than you.
And thank you. Arthur tried to stab the shit out of Superman. That also defeats your argument.
