Are you kidding? Hulk Smash stupid Mantis. There is no way she is stopping the big guy.

What the f**k?

Hasn't Mantis one-punched THOR?

Yeah, she could put the Hulk down.

Mantis can hurt top-tiers with her attacks because she can sense weak points. Karnak can do the same and he's already failed to hurt Hulk in the past.

Mrrungo Mu
All she has to do is thrust those nasty unwashed feet of hers into Hulks face and he goes down hard.

Comparing Mantis to Karnak is like comparing Karnak to Captain America.

Captain America also attacks weak points, but not nearly as effectively as Karnak does.

Has Karnak ever one-shotted Thor? erm.

derp. what the hells a chick named after a bug gonna do to hulk? other than annoy him.

I guess if Hulk doesn't use a thunder clap, ground stomp and just sits there then Mantis can win. messed

seaapple
Mantis also has great empathy. She is not going to let the Hulk's rage increase. I was thinking of the Thor feat when I said Mantis would win.

yeah im shell have much empathy for hulk when she sees his fist flying at her face.

seaapple
True, and she'll have the same empathy as his punch goes whizzing by the place she used to be before she evaded.

Well, there is the famous "knocking out Surfer with a brick" incident. I'd say Karnak's pretty damn close to Mantis.

She'll be even more empathic when her eardrums are destroyed by a thunderclap. Oh boy, can you feel the love?!

seaapple
Mantis has complete control over her body, she can shut down her hearing.

seaapple
The thunderclap is a strong attack, that is for sure. But I think Mantis can withstand these feats in the context of a full battle.

You all realize that a thunderclap will send her flying right?

Why couldn't Thor thunderclap or something to that effect? He is smarter than the Hulk. And also, what was it that he's the god of ...?

seaapple
Mantis for the win!

hulk wins

Bouboumaster
Hulk via pulp transformation of mantis.

seaapple
Don't underestimate Mantis. Her Thor feat has me convinced. And I think her skill set nullifies the Hulk's rage advantage.

seaapple
It is not a spite thread at all. Mantis isn't simply a martial artist. She is a martial artist on a cosmic scale. She incapacitated Thor with a touch. It isn't a matter of her punching that Hulk with brute strength. She knows the frailties of a body even of the Hulk's stature. You'll notice that the debate hasn't raged around her abilities to do this, it is about whether she could get close enough too, or if the thunderclap or another means could prevent her.

Jyppe
Hulk groundstomps or thunderclaps. Game over.

SupaEZE
Mantis is no match for hulf, he'll straight up break her bones, whoever said Mantis is wrong

Bouboumaster
He pimpslap her, and set her head flying away from the rest of her body.

seaapple
If he could actually manage to touch her...before a few well placed nerve blows knock him out like she did Thor perhaps, or perhaps her empathy can help her to calm him, thus reverting him to Banner...

Of course the Hulk could easily beat her if he gets in one good blow. But she has a good chance too based on her skill set. Then let's not even begin to talk about the more powerful Celestial Madonna Mantis...
