By toe to toe you mean exchanging attacks or blows? NO. Surfer has exchanged attacks with galactus, that doesnt qualify as giving him hell. Considering that thanos has matched B and T thor with the PG and ended up winning that fight, then no regular thor will not give him "hell" of any sort.

By toe to toe I mean them squaring off evenly in an apparent stalemate. Surfer zooming around and zapping Galactus to no affect isn't exactly the same thing.
Good showing for Thanos as Thor was amped to some degree at least. However, even in that issue it was stated Thor would give Thanos a good run for his money on a regular day. I do admit that Thanos should have the edge on Thor physically. At least on average.
Thanos won by using a weapon. Why do some people forget that?
Thor has given him hell during the Infinity Gauntlet.

Hmm so its that incident. Well seeing as that was a thor amped by magical armour from Odin as well as a thanos clone then that incident is really not applicable as i was talking about regular thor (plus that was rectonned into a thanos clone). Moreover who stated that thor would give thanos a run for his money on a regular day in that issue? HAvent read it in a while but regardless thor hasnt shown to give thanos a run for his money on a regular day.
He won by using a weapon yes (which he later incorporated intto his powerset) but the fact that he was matching that incarnation of thor all the way (without using the weapon) is of more importance.
heh.

Thor was a beast during that arc as well. Temporarily took out both the Thanos clone and Mangog. Had ridiculous damage soak too.
Like I said, I'm fine with it. Thanos should have the edge on Thor physically, so him going toe to toe with a slightly amped Thor is fine. I'm assuming he was slightly amped as even when he was placed in that force block and was tapping into the Power Gem, Thanos stated that the pressure was rising slowly.

Those scenes hardly qualify (they dont) as giving him hell. Some are even just flash shots showing them engaging in the background without giving us an actual detailed view of the battle.

heh, if u consider a panel of them punching each other as doing "so well" then i must have higher standards for thor than you do.
Unless the definition of "giving hell" being used is from the limited edition quanchi dictionary which describes thanos fight against odin as "a potential win" for thanos then those panels of them exchanging blows can in no way shape or form be classified as giving him hell.
Giving a person hell would normally refer to one character nearly pushing another character to the limit in an intense battle. Not barely having started to engage with the battle then suddenly being interrupted.

Naija is pretty much spot on… Thor has never given Thanos hell in ANY of their encounters. The time he did the best was when he was amped and had the PG and even then Thanos won that fight. I do feel that Thor matchups up against Thanos the best as far as the heralds go, but giving him hell…. nah.
Why do you keep saying he didn't two shot thor.. he did exactly that. Thor was on his knees Dazed and Thanos started talking… He didn't continue to fire and got distracted afterwards. The point is.. two shots and Thor was on his knees and unable to defend himself. Picture a UFC fight… the fight would've been stopped right then and there and Thor was unable to defend himself if Thanos kept on blasting.
This list is out of order anyways… however he probably makes it to about 5.
I keep saying he didn't two shot Thor because he didn't two shot Thor.
Thor was on his knee and he was even facing Thanos as I recall. He was literally up in seconds (3 panels.) and seemed unharmed. Thanos no doubt had the advantage at that moment and would have should have won if he continued attacking him.
Unless someone has evidence to the contrary, I still believe it was more than 2 attacks. Thanos himself stated that he was going to follow up with a few more blasts and Thor was on his feet the last time we saw him. Thanos was also pushed to the point he wished to kill Thor as he originally planed, so I doubt he'd show Thor mercy.
The point is he two shot thor and HAD HIM BEAT and HELPLESS. I gave you the UFC example and that is the correlation here. He couldn't defend himself and was on his knee... Thanos could've as he stated followed up with a few more shots and Thor was down for. He didn't and started talking and then distracted. This doesn't change the fact that Thanos had Thor at his mercy with two shots. Those two shots from the weakest version of Thanos.
