Compare Hercules`s face after the initial hit and Hulk`s face after being hit. While both are hurt they arent busted.
What happens next? Hercules holds back the match to talk Hulk into his senses, he doesnt figth, he makes no effort in even defending himself. While the initial punches end up adding to the hurt, if it started actually a figth we have no way to know if Hercules (or Hulk for that matter) would end up busted or not. The first Eclipso Superman against CM is alike.
If we had to go by that issue alone, we dont have much to see on how Hulk is easily stronger, we just know it because we take the other showing into consideration and because the point of the story is that he got a powerup.
