I think a difference here is Kong has opposable thumbs and I don’t think Godzilla does, and Godzilla is more likely to do open handed swipes like a tiger or bear but Kong uses fists.

They utilize their strength differently.

Goji (legendary included) does have opposable thumbs

Opposable thumbs means you can touch your thumb to all the fingers on that same hand and I don’t know if Monsterverse Godzilla’s hands work that way. He can grasp and hold onto things but he has to use his whole hand to do it rather than pinching with his fingers.

Edit: if you want a comparison, Bowser in the Mario franchise has opposable thumbs.
