Thor would have to contend with not only the Hulks physical attributes which are great on any scale, but him bleeding solar energy.I won't say who wins this, but there are certain variable that need to be taken into account. Mjolnir for instance could become dislodged from Thor's grip as has happened to him in the past, and could be tackled to the ground, and forced to go into a slug it out with the Hulk.
There are too many variables to say right off that one of these guys are going to dominate the other 10/10. Thor could win, but the Hulk could win as well. Yep Thor can generate hurricane force winds, but the Hulk is also capable of displacing land mass with just the power that bled off of him as well.
Here's a question. Rulk caught Mjolnir right in the face, and wasn't put down. The Hulk was far more powerful than Rulk was at that time during HOTM. How much damage do you think a full on hammer blow would do to the Hulk, when in on a weaker level, he beat the same Rulk, that took that heat from Thor? Like I said. Too many variables, for this to be simple.
Compared to everything that Thor can and has done on panel? Hulk may as well be a one trick pony. His primary power is vast superhuman strength with the ability to amp and he can he can emit gamma radiation. Thor's overall power set trumps that. That's really not anything debatable. Thor would literally set the pace for this entire encounter. If he remains airborne and bombards Hulk with massive energy attacks and weather manipulation, what's Hulk's recourse? He jumps at him? Thor out maneuvers him with his superior mobility and speed. Hulk doesn't have the needed tools to engage a Thor utilizing all of his powers to his fullest ability.
Why won't you say who wins? You can have an opinion here. I certainly do. Mjolnir has been removed before, and Thor has plenty of feats of him summoning it back nigh instantly. If Hulk somehow disarms Thor, which is incredibly unlikely as he'd have to cover any distance between the two and surge through Thor's onslaught of attacks while contending with a faster and mobile foe, Thor could summon Mjolnir back to him.
Don't think most people are saying someone wins 10/10. Thor does get the majority here due to what he brings to the table, though.
I could easily ask how does Hulk fare when Thor hits him with enough force to shatter Celestial armor.
