I can give you reasons why Gladiator will win as well.
Well, Hank without rings has comparable physical stats, greater versatility, the ability to reform himself, the ability to bring out weapons capable of dealing intense damage, technopathy, etc.
With the Sinestro Corps rings, his physical blows are amped even higher, he boasts greater firepower, the ability to create shields and constructs, BFR capabilities, and more.
I really don't see any feats from Gladiator that point to his superiority over Henshaw sans rings, let alone with them.

But Doomsday evolves into Cyborg Doomsday. Henshaw can now no longer regenerate and his control of the Watchtower is lost. What does he do? He goes on and physically fights Doomsday some more.Supergirl intervenes and stops the fight. But Henshaw wants none of that so what does he do, even in his very weakened state? He instantly manifests a weapon capable of killing Supergirl.
A beastly performance.
w/o rings hank kills him. with rings it is spite. and thanks to phil for the scans.

Hard-pressed to remember who else. Doesn't seem like something that someone similarly situated in their universe like Henshaw would know about.
is the fact that strontian powers are based on psionics considered common knowledge? if it is, this is even more spiteful as hank could easily whip up a psi dampener from his borg form. imo it doesn't matter, just wondered if the knowledge is considered common.

yeah, i tend to agree. wasn't sure how wide spread knowledge of the strontians was.
I just reread Trial of Superman. Cyborg Supermans something of a beast in it, taking out all three Reign stand ins within two pages (He one shot KO's Eradicator!), plus pocket universe Supergirl.
And he even takes out Superman in a single attack. He's possessed by Tribunal Prime when it happens, but there's no hint of a powerup (In fact, Tribunal Prime even says "I have your durability.. And as I recall, I'm even more powerful than you are), so it sounds like all Cyborg Superman.
The screwy thing, is only an issue before that Hank jacks into the Tribunals planet and hits Supes with all the energy he can sap from the planetary grid. Superman survives it (City busting power levels, easily, and I'd imagine more than that..), and than beats Hank into the ground. That was under L. Simonson, and the next issue was by Jurgens, so not sure if this is simply two different writers disagreeing about power levels? It's pretty poor form either way, basically having the arc contradict itself within two issues that probably came out within the same week..

Nihilist you cyber bully, leave "TheHulk" alone. He has his reasons. Just no particular ones 😱
