Real danger and challenge. He could give himself handicaps to artificially create challenges, but that would clash with being a hero. After all, in pretty much all the incidents so far, people have died. So, one can't really call himself a hero if he makes sport out of such disasters. If Saitama was fighting just for fun (though he doesn't have much fun), it would be a different thing, but he is doing the hero thing, so it can't be helped. He has to take it seriously despite it making it deadly boring. No wonder he developed British dry humour.
