Skill wise. Power comes in to it too, though, as a well placed punch can do more damage than a wild swing. He was still a fair bit more powerful than his average though.

Thor was also actively telepathically compromised by that Valkyrie phantom, yet it is commonly held consensus on this board that Blood and Thunder Thor was a bloodlusted Thor. Ergo, that means Superman, under somewhat similar scenarios, was also bloodlusted.He was, in his mind, fighting Doomsday in both cases. Knowing the kind of destruction the monster has caused, and what it takes to stop him, and then not holding back his punches in both cases to beat down his opponnent, why would that imply that one case was him fighting "intelligently" and the other was him "mentally compromised"?
A friend of mine on cbr told me that the animated film was pretty much a rip-off of the comic. Did that staging bit get revealed in the end in the comic?
That makes it right? Rucka himself said Superman was compromised and wasn't operating at his best, but we're still arguing that this is a really high showing for Superman?
Because it was flat out stated that he was compromised due to his grief and rage.
In the comic it was just Superman. The animated version was quite faithful, though with some small changes.

I went back to check the Superman/DD vs the Probes, and I realized for the first time after many viewings, that Doomsday was biting a Probes' leg.
