Looking through my Superman comics and i found that, imo, Superman's best fight as far as illustration probably damage output was Superman versus Zod in Superman: For Tomorrow. So it made me curious as to what Thor fans consider Thor's best brawl. Was it his recent fight against Gorr or is it another one I am not privy to?
What is Thor's best fight?
One of my favorites is his rematch with the unstoppable Juggernaut. It was a nice brawl and the ending is among the best in my opinion.
Has Thor ever fought Hyperion or gladiator?
Yes to both. Although I'm not sure if that last scan is a alternate version of Thor or simply a costume change.
Edit: I'm sorry, forget that last one. It's Thunderstrike not Thor.
@battle_forum_junkie: reg thor has fought gladiator multiple times as well. Can't post the picsnow on phone. Look around and yyou'll find them.
As far as his best battle? Tough call. Some memorable ones for me are: vs brb, vs celestials, vs hercules, vs surtur, vs odin, vs hulk.

Except that Thunderstrike fight there is also Thor fight too in the mighty thor series that he teamed up with Thor Girl
Nothing beats a classic.
Surfer has always been one of my favorite opponents for Thor.
Even their more recent fights have been amazing.
@marlboroman: your images didn't appear
I'm partial to Odin in the Destroyer Armor / swinging the Odinsword around demolishing Thor in Man of War, although against Gorr we did have three-times the Thor for one's comic which was pretty awesome.

Oh, okay. Thanks for the info. :)

No problem!
There's just so many to choose from with Thor. I thought he had many impressive battles throughout Jurgen's run, although fighting the Destroyer and Mangogg stand out. Several of his older battles with the Destroyer are also impressive, and from a visual/drama perspective, his fight with Thanos during Infinity Gauntlet was fantastic, even if Thor was destined to lose. His fight with Loki in Thor 432 was also pretty epic.
I nominate the fight with Worthy Hulk and Worthy Thing in Fear Itself (which wasn't that bad).
I liked that fight quite a bit too.
Best fight: Thor vs (1/5 phoenix force) Emma Frost...
That was one of the worst.....
Thor's fight with with his Bor was by far my favorite battle of all time. Good fighting sequence including swatting away the Dark Avengers like they were ants, it also had a great meaning and was emotional as Bor thought he was fighting a thief of the Odinforce while Thor didn't even know he had killed his own Grandfather.
The 3 Thors vs Gorr comes at second place
a lot of good ones in this thread.
when Thor fights the designate inside the destroyer armor it's pretty sick. regular mortals can't even view it only beings from higher planes of existence.
Thor vs the actual phoenix force out is space was far from one of his coolest fights but it was an awesome showing. especially considering he got shat on for the rest of AvX.
@sog7dc: His famous fight with Beta Ray Bill for who was more worthy to wield Mjolnir was all h2h. Also one of my favorite classic Thor fights.

Why?...It showed his willpower and persistence against a much stronger opponent...I wouldn't call it the worst...well, in the end he got humiliated, but that's not all that matters....The important thing is that he managed to get past this loss and continue the fight....

i guess I see your point,but AvX was mostly garbage......

It was...yes,I agree...as was AoU.....horrible writing... :P
@gunmetalgrey: Here he fights off Loki and Feris without Mjolnir while both of them have hammers of their own.
@bgibs13390: Not sure why that was directed at me, but your post is probably meant for @sog7dc. He's the one looking for Thor fights sans Mjolnir.

I agree,

Is that finally a showing of him using his h2h skill?
I think that,against foes that he's more on par with,he uses brawling and such,but when he's outmatched he often resorts to using his superior skill. And that's different from Wonder Woman,who uses her h2h on a more regular basis (being that Thor is matched by few).
@gunmetalgrey: Yeah you are right sorry about that.
@cameron83: I think that Thor likes a good fight. So he tried to fight equally with people. That is why he is portrayed as a brawler most of the time instead of using his more powerful abilities or skill.
@bgibs13390: That and brawling is probably the most enjoyable/fun way to fight when you're a nigh-invulnerable guy.

That seems like a more plausible reason than mine.
