Can anyone defeat Karnak in hand to hand combat?
Midnighter
Anyone who can beat Karnak in hand to hand combat would have other weaknesses to exploit. Civil War 2 shows him using psychology as much as his fists.

Maybe the top tiers, like Shang-chi. Being able to see your flaw isn't much help if you can't exploit it.

This here.
If you cant exploit the flaw or te flaw is "He is invulnerable to full moon light in a year ending in 0" or "he can be killed by destroying his hidden hearth".
I bet even Daredevil could beat him.
Black Panther beat him twice
>>87909017
yes. Already happened numerous times. Most recently, Shang Chi made him his bitch

A LOT of people. People who are simply too fast for him to react to (Spider-man, Quicksilver), People who are too durable for him to hurt (Luke Cage, Venom), People who are simply better fighters (Iron Fist, Shang-Chi)
Keep in mind that Shang Chi's the MU's greatest martial artist but that Iron Fist could still beat him because he has the added edge of magic punches.
There are countless variables at play. The answer is whoever the writer wants to defeat him desu

Of fucking course he did. Based BP.

It's possible that OP's referring to the current, especially ruthless Karnak. Much less of a jobber.
Then again I don't know the source on that Shang Chi fight.
>>87909017
Shang-Chi would murder the shit out of him.
From other universes, Karate Kid beats anybody.
What about Taskmaster? Can he do it?
>>87909017
Anyone who is siginifigently faster or stronger. You might see that a guy has a bad knee, but when you need 2 tons for him to feel it, you're fucked.
He has the Batman effect in that regard. One punch should break his jaw or give him brain damage, but lol your punch has less force if I go at this angle. Then again I just want to see someone use gunkata.
U know tho

That'd be a pretty good fight.
