I was wondering that myself.
If he does, can he curb stomp Grodd? If he doesnt, would it be enough for a Grodd win?
See, this is why i thought it'd be a good fight, Zack.
Grodd has a power that Morlun has never shown a specific defense against and this is not a fair fight for Grodd?
You see the fact that nobody has ever telepathically attacked Morlun doesn't mean Morlun can shrug off a telepathic attack. What it actually means is we have no reason to believe he has any specific telepathic resistance.
So if it has been established Morlun has never shown any kind of mental defenses..the next question becomes "How good is Grodd with telepathy?". He is no Prof. X, but he's no slouch either.
I agree that if Grodd had to only use physical force to achieve victory he could not win. Though Grodd is hilariously more durable then Spiderman. At least pre nuDC Grodd is.

I can't see why we'd attribute telepathic defenses to someone who hasn't shown any. Morlun isn't a robot, he has a mind.
As for durability, yeah it won't help against a life force drain. I was just talking more about how it wouldn't be easy for Morlun to physically beat Grodd to death. It can be done, just not easily. Flash has hit Grodd 3,000 times to no effect, and Grodd has had his blood turned to acid and come back from it.

Morlun is very likely to have great TP defenses, but... without a single feat of this type, he's useless in the message boards battles against telepaths.
Depends if Morlun toys with him or not - he has shredded that Wakandan net made out of adamantium, after all. And Ezekiel said he'd do the same to his underground bunker (which was partially encased with adamantium).
It depends on the telepath really when it comes to him being useless against them. Not all telepaths can directly control or attack your mind.

I thought about this today, but its already been touched on in those who have said that just because someone's never been exposed to TP doesnt mean the person has defenses against it.
