• Cull feels bad for Hulk & try to stop Thanos


• No Stones


• win by any means

Black order have been with thanos for a long time before he had the stones. They all follow him in fear/respect

Thanos in a close fight. Personally I think, in strength if Hulk is 100% then Thanos is 120% and Cull is maybe 110%.

@aka_aka_aka_ak: I really don't see how this is close...

Should be pretty obvious.

Unless OP means that when Cull was about to intervene instead of helping Thanos he helps Hulk so it's a 2-on-1, this is lock-worthy.

Thanos vs BO post are honestly dumb. Logically they won't ever beat them and they won't even want to fight him.

But anyway Thanos wins.

Why not? Thanos was a little stronger than Hulk, Cull appeared to be a little stronger than the Hulkbuster, so they should be similar strength. Thanos is likely a bit more skilled, but it should be even closer than Hulk vs Thanos

Thanos beats him to a pulp. Cull is overrated.

@aka_aka_aka_ak: Hulkbuster piloted by an inexperienced Banner.

what?

@aka_aka_aka_ak: an example of "a little stronger" would be the Hulk vs. Abomination fight. Thanos stomped Hulk in seconds in a one-sided fashion.

@aka_aka_aka_ak: Thanos is a lot stronger than the Hulk. Him ripping off his arms while he's choking his neck and putting them to his sides solidified that.

He's not a "lil bit more skilled" he's a lot more skilled. Cull showed signs of just brawler and couldn't even beat the Hulkbuster suit where goddamn Banner was controlling.

Thanos gives him the same treatment he gave Hulk.

Thanos beat Hulk on skill and it was by no means a stomp, Hulk took several punches with maximum knock-back of maybe 2 ft. A stomp would be Thanos punching Hulk and Hulk smashing through the wall into an instant KO. Hulk's attacks were knocking back Thanos as much as Thanos' punches were knocking back Hulk, indicating (assuming similar mass) that they were hitting each other similarly hard.

"Him ripping off his arms while he's choking his neck and putting them to his sides solidified that." are you referring to the bit where Hulk pins Thanos against the wall and Thanos pushed Hulk's arms back? Thanos only needs to be slightly stronger than Hulk to do that.

Cull was consistently overpowering the Hulkbuster armour, losing only to a trick from Banner because Banner couldn't beat him in a brawl. I agree Thanos is more skilled, which is why I give him to edge. The fact that Banner was controlling the suit is irrelevant to the fact that Cull was overpowering it.

@aka_aka_aka_ak: Banner was not a good pilot and even tripped on the ground while running with it. If it was Stark, Cull wouldn't have done as well. Anyways, Thanos would stomp either Hulkbuster so Cull challenging the Hulkbuster doesn't make him impressive enough to give Thanos a close fight.

@aka_aka_aka_ak: I'm talking about him ripping off his arms from his neck when it comes to strength, not him beating him up. And no he doesn't need to be slightly stronger he needs to be a lot stronger. I don't think you really grasp how hard it would be to even try and rip someone's arms off of your neck while choking you. Not even to mention it's the Hulk doing the choking. And he didn't push his arms back he removed them from his neck.

And he did stomp him, you're flat out wrong. After Hulk's initial hits he never once touched Thanos again, that is a stomp in the highest order. He was hitting Hulk so fast he could barely throw any punches and when he did they never connected. Not to mention he broke his nose which is the first time Hulk has ever had anything broken before in a fight. Thanos didn't seem effected by anything the Hulk threw at him.

And Thanos punching Hulk the way you described wouldn't be a stomp as that wouldn't even be a fight.

The fact that Banner actually had time to talk to himself and try to get the Hulk out just shows Cull wasn't doing anything substantial. If he was a good fighter he would have taken Banner out within seconds but he couldn't because he isn't skilled enough.

Actually Banner controlling the suit is relevant because he knows nothing about the suit. He's like a kid first learning how to play a video game. Put Tony in that Hulkbuster suit and let's see what happens.
