I am having trouble seeing the current Sasquatch (according to the bio), a 25 ton character, taking on a Class 100 Titanium Man in the strength department, let alone all the extra weapons TM is packing.
Errrr...no bio has listed him as class 25 😬
He's high end class 100 character, and can boost his strength via rage or pain as the Elder God takes control over his body granting him near unlimited strength. If Sasquatch goes Tanaraq...forget it, TM is dead
This is base Sasquatch without the boost in power, here's some examples of his strength
---------------------------------------------
Strength
---------------------------------------------
Alpha Flight #1 (Vol.1):
Sasquatch attacks the Elder God, Tundra who is a Great Beast himself. He rips off huge sections of the earthy manifestation. Just to note this wasn’t the real Tundra revealed in AF #24, but an Earthly avatar

Hulk Annual #8:
This should impress people. Here Sasquatch pulls and lifts a destroyer nany ship (British destroyers (of recent times) have an average displacement of around 5,000 tonnes or higher) and then pushes it out again

Hulk Annual #8
Here it states he has "second strongest legs on the face of the Earth”

Machine Man #18:

Uncanny X-Men #120 (Vol.1):
In his first appearance he threw a 250 ton DC-10 1000 feet in reverse, crashing into a building even while the engines were still. The engines were stated to produce 150,000 pounds of thrust.

While I do appreciate the information you provided, I do wish to point out that it is listed in the bio for current sasquatch posted by the OP.
http://www.marveldatabase.com/wiki/index.php/Sasquatch_%28Walter_Langkowski%29
Current Sasquatch Form* Superhuman Strength: In his current Sasquatch form, Walter is also superhumanly strong. And while his current form is virtually identical in appearance to Tanaraq's, his strength is a mere fraction of what it once was while he possessed the great mystical strength of Tanaraq's body. While the exact amount of weight he can lift isn't known, the upper limit doesn't exceed 25 tons.
Whether the bio is wrong or correct for current sasquatch, I'll leave that up to those who know the character.

................Let me see if I have this right. You're going to trust a website with known inaccuracies, which can be edited by anyone (a characteristic shared by all wiki sites) over proven on-panel examples of Sas greatly exceeding said limit? The DC and Marvel database sites are decent for picking up a start on characters, but they are notorious for fudging details and missing information, much like Wiki itself.
The Bio is wrong. It was just proven to you. On-panel scans are the gold standard, not website bios. Even Marvel.com's rankings are infamous for screwing up power rankings. Surfer is ranked over Thanos on there, as is Wolverine.

It's wrong, like I said no bio has listed him at 25 tons, or even mentioned it in any comics or handbook. Marvel's last bio had him 5/7 in strength, which your able to press between the 25-75 ton range, but that doesn't mean he can press just 25 tons. As the other handbooks list him as class 70, which falls in between that range... even though he has class 100 feats even current Sasquatch
So in short they read the stats wrong, as they said he can't exceed 25 tons, but that would make you 4/7 in strength. So can anyone fix that bio?

No, you have it completely wrong. I know all of that. I am not trusting a website over anything. Whether it is right or wrong is is another story, because I am simply pointing that the bio does say 25 tons. Period.
