Not too much later Byrne wrote the Thing trashing Wonderman and even stopping his speed blitz... Sasquatch didnt say the Thing was STRONGER than him, I think he said Thing was tougher...which is true. That weak ass version of the Thing took a bad beating from Sasquatch and kept getting up. And later on Sasquatch showed he wasnt the same kind of warrior as the Thing when he fought Champion. Sasquatch also went on to beat up Ben Grimm in an issue of Alpha Flight. Sasquatch is one of the best strength guys on Marvel Earth. Not on Hulk or Thor level, but he would stomp Strong Guy.
Well at that time Sasquatch was weakened from his transformation and Thing was tired from walking trying to find Walter. In all, Walter got the worst from the depowering. Sasquatch was built up to be the Canadian Hulk. Like back when they first fight, he said "Sheesh! your bigger, stronger, talk better than me, and played pro football! There must be something I can beat you at." It's in the last panel

Bah! The Champion fight isn't a good indication of overall strength. Plus if Sasquatch gives into Tanaraq...forget about it. Guy made Zarthos, Kulan Gath, Morbius, Namora [a female version of Namor, same strength], Mimic, Morph, etc. look like chumps

EDIT: This is what Sasquatch said in IC. "Good thing you were here. I'm nowhere near as strong as Grimm." [It was the metal helmet thing]. Bah! Like I said...bull! If it was tougher than I would agree, Thing has heart.
