Tom Defalco's run is underrated.

Notice also he fought mostly with his fists and he only used Mjolnir to remove Juggy's energy shield.
Current Thor wouldn't even find the bathroom without that chunk of Uru.

Vastly so imo
Makes current Thor look even more pathetic imo
I so miss real thor
he beat him recently too
it was a stronger than usual juggernaut as well

True, however the showing itself was fairly pathetic for both parties involved.
Thor was getting beaten like a drum, had zero power without his hammer and nearly died by falling on some random spikes, then he called for all the knock-off hammers he made and started breaking them on Marko's face until he went down.
"Juggernaut vs Thor", an era when Marvel still had respect for Thor. I know that statement would likely get "eye rolls" from writers. But there was a time when Thor was Marvel's (subtle?) analog to Superman. Thor going toe to toe with Cain Marko was more indicative of that era.

As far as I’m concerned Thor lost this fight. Physically he got his ass handed to him. Juggy tossed him around like he was a rag doll. Thor always had a fight on his hands with the Juggernaut. Even when Thor negated his force field Juggernaut held his own. Thor even paid him a compliment. They should be evenly matched physically.
The indignity to Thor was when the Immortal Hulk cracked his melon wiping the floor with him and the entire Avengers.

Being fair Hulk and Thor used to be evenly matched, then Hulk got a permanent increase in power on Sakaar (which made him the physically strongest hero on Earth, according to his bio), so it makes sense they no longer are even.
Thor, hulk, juggernaut should all be a test for each other, and in terms of a pure brawl I have no issues with any winner, so long as it's a good showing all round
Imo juggernaut is the villain hulk (well at least when hulk isn't that)
They are all in the same weight class for me it only become difficult to read when Thor draws on the huge range of other powers he had and they don't show he is much more than just a blunt instrument brawler
The hammer negating the force field was a class move, if only for a few more seconds
And when Thor pushed him back with the god blast
That was magnificent

That’s where Thor’s hammer comes in. It was always the equalizer. Juggernaut has his force field. It’s enough to make the Hulk earn his heavyweight title.

His base line strength according to his bio is higher. But I mean, so what? Hulk's main deal, "the madder Hulk gets, the stronger he gets". I think Hulk Annual 15 features Gray Hulk beating the (Tyrannus controlled) Abomination by getting really, really angry.

He also destroyed a meteor twice the size of Earth, despite being less powerful than green hulk.

Ha Ha. To be fair Thor got Whorf'd a lot so the climax of the fight would pay off. Like he got bodied by a Spider-Man robot.
