For the record, the Silver Surfer is at least on par with Superman in terms of durability - and a very good case could be made for his superiority.
^^ And Hulk was in fact able to knock out the Silver Surfer, and we know that his WWH form was far more stronger than he was even on Planet Hulk. Which is why if Superman were to go in and fight like an idiot hand to hand WWH would take a win.
That being said, Supes still wins this match though as much as I dislike saying it, due to the conditions:
* Fights like he did during OWAW (goes immediately for the kill at full strength from the get-go, fights with intelligence instead of trying to act tough standing toe to toe, and uses his superspeed in combat to keep his opponents off guard).
* BFR allowed.
* Hulk won't really have enough time to amp up to as high as he did during his fight with Sentry for example due to Superman's speed factor.
