While the MCU Hulk was not able to defeat Thanos, his comic book counterparts pose a better chance to make an even fight particularly if Thanos does not wield the Infinity Gauntlet. These two titans in the Marvel Universe seem destined to do battle in some form or another.
Compared to Thanos, who is an extreme strategist, Hulk's method of mindlessly throwing aggressive punches was bound to catch up to him. Thanos was the more skilled fighter because he thought out his every move, ultimately explaining why he was able to so easily defeat the physically-strong Hulk.
Hulk can potentially grow stronger than Thanos, as his strength increases with his rage. That's how strong MCU Thanos is made to be. Also, he doesn't just beat Hulk via superior strength, but also superior combat skill and experience.
The Time Heist in Avengers: Endgame allowed the surviving heroes to get the Infinity Stones and with the help of a Nano Gauntlet developed by Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, and Rocket Raccoon, Smart Hulk undid Thanos' snap.
The simple answer is no. Yes, Hulk absolutely smashes Thor to the ground with Mjolnir, but, he's holding both Thor and the hammer. Hulk wouldn't have been able to lift Mjolnir by himself, but since the God of Thunder had a firm grip on it as well, he was able to use it as a weapon against his teammate.
While the upgrades give Juggernaut the powers to kill Thanos with ease, it comes at the sacrifice of the former villain, as Juggernaut is abandoned after the Mad Titan is taken down, as no attempts are made to save him as he accelerates through space.
Exposure to so many enemies along with his trip through space may have weakened the Hulk to the point that he could bond with Bruce in Endgame, thus making the Professor persona appear much weaker. However, after snapping his fingers, the gamma burst should have raised his levels.
There's no denying the Juggernaut's strength, but it's still rewarding to see the Hulk vs. Juggernaut power debate finally settled. Even in the heat of battle, the Juggernaut had to admit that the Hulk was stronger.
Who would win in an MCU fight: Odin or Thanos? Without the Infinity Gauntlet, Thanos stands little chance against Prime Odin. Odin is stated to be able to shatter the Earth.
He has centuries of battle experience, the hones skills of a warrior, and one of the most powerful weapons in the universe. Putting it all together, Thor can win against the Hulk, even if he can't kill the Jade Giant.
There's no question the Hulk is a near-indestructible force who comes out on top in almost all of his battles of pure strength. However, against Superman, he's outmatched. While Hulk's strength might rival that of the Man of Steel, Superman's other abilities give him a considerable edge against his opponent.
As the All-Father of Asgard, Thor is more powerful than he has ever been – and perhaps he is even stronger than Hulk, but the Hulk has undergone some drastic changes as well. Bruce Banner's mind is literally in the driver's seat of Starship Hulk, and that could prove to be a deadly combination.
He learns that her blood synthesizes gamma radiation differently than his. They both share a rare combination of genetic factors that even allow gamma radiation synthesizing, but Bruce is surprised to learn that She-Hulk's is unique. He is able to use these findings to heal Smart Hulk's arm fully.
Yet oddly enough, Thor decided to give the hammer to the X-Men's unstoppable foe the Juggernaut in a strategic move that managed to end the Juggernaut's reign on an alien planet.
One of the most physically powerful X-Men, Colossus is a force to be reckoned with. He would be able to put up a good fight against Thanos and even get close to beating him but he wouldn't be able to keep Thanos down and that would be a problem.
He can lift a commercial airplane – which weighs around 100 tons – when he is at his calmest; that's no problem for him. But the angrier he gets the stronger he gets, and if the Hulk is really pissed, then he can lift anything, including mountains, or even planets!
It's important to note that the rules around worthiness had been temporarily suspended to allow this to happen. As soon as the fight was over, Superman couldn't lift the hammer anymore. However, under normal circumstances, without any weird interference, Superman is worthy of Mjolnir.
Asked recently by IGN which of the X-Men they'd have allowed Thanos to dust, Joe Russo gave a funny, yet well thought-out answer: He'd let Thanos snap everyone but Wolverine.
“The Hulk has never come up against every Infinity Stone in a gauntlet, and the pure power of the stones. Thanos is nearly invincible, and he did not heal either,” Joe Russo says in a Twitter Q&A hosted by Wired . “So, clearly, when you wield the full power of the Infinity Stone, it's irreparable damage to your being.”
