Doesn’t Lois have Zod’s powers ATM? anyway let’s say that Zod had all of his powers for the sake of this thread and we assume that they are both operating at their normal non amplified max.
This could actually go either way. If Zod manages to keep intimidate Kallark he would eventually take the win, however Gladiator is typically far more aggressive than even Zod. If he didn’t have a job as a legal enforcer, you’d think that he was the bad purple version of Superman.
Combat ability is roughly the same, both are trained super combatants with Gladiator leading by a nose hair, which isn’t enough to say that Gladiator would treat him like he treated Hyperion.
In an atmosphere Zod should win 5.5-6/10
In deep space Gladiator should win 5.5-6/10
Gladiator is as fast or faster than Zod is in a vacuum or within an atmosphere.
You would think that in space Zod would be supercharged as if he were pseudo sun dipping the entire time, but the comic writers seem to treat space as if it were pitch dark and not more radioactive and filled with far more solar rays than on the surface of a planet which blocks the harmful rays that empower Kryptonians and Daxamites. This is seen every time that Superman flies all the way to the sun in order to bake the ache and return to the battle at X times normal statistics instead of simply flying to the most upper part of a planets atmosphere, but nope, they have him flying all the way to the sun.
Gladiator has fared pretty well against supers. He defeated Hyperion (Earth-712?) 1 on 1. He has also did pretty well against Supreme, canon or not.
It could probably go either way, but give Zod a slight advantage.
absolute bullshit, zod has way better combat speed

Bluewaterrider: "I'm surprised that a Skyfather like Zeus defeated Hulk when Zeus' Top-Tier son Hercules has lost to Hulk."
