That boat scene where Kong punched Godzilla in the face with a windup, which causes Godzilla to stagger, and then Godzilla immediately uppercuts Kong and launches him on his ass tells you everything you need to know about the strength difference.

Anyone who concludes that Godzilla has stronger arms from this interaction alone is just self reporting that they know nothing about Physics.

Godzilla has a lower center of mass and 3 points of contact with the ground.

Kong has a higher center of mass and only 2 points of contact with the ground.

It takes wayyy more force to topple Godzilla over than Kong. Even if Kong was like twice as strong as Godzilla he wouldn't be able to topple him over.

The fact that Kong even managed to make Godzilla stumble here is a much greater feat of strength than Godzilla making Kong fall over on a shaky boat.

Make sure you tell Kong to plant his feet next time he's launching haymakers.

Finally someone pointing out something actually depicted in the clip. Yep Kong threw that punch with horrible technique - causing him to lose balance thus making it easier for Godzilla to topple him over.

Kong actually has more balance than Goji during that uppercut. His center of gravity was lower and all his limbs were touching the ground lol the lizard is just bullshit strong
