The Battle:
This is a close battle, and the outcome could go either way.
* Mr. Incredible's advantage: He is significantly faster and more agile than the Thing. He could potentially outmaneuver and land punches on the Thing before he can react.
* The Thing's advantage: His incredible durability and strength make him difficult to hurt. Even if Mr. Incredible lands a punch, it might not be enough to seriously injure him. The Thing can also deliver powerful concussive blasts that could knock Mr. Incredible back.
Conclusion:
In a straight-up fight, I would give the edge to The Thing. He has the strength and durability to withstand Mr. Incredible's attacks, while his own attacks could be devastating. However, Mr. Incredible's speed and agility could give him the opportunity to land a decisive blow if he's able to exploit the Thing's slower reflexes.
Ultimately, the outcome depends on the specific circumstances of the fight, such as the environment, their strategies, and whether either one is holding back.
