according to Marvel Directory it takes someone who lifts 15 tons to uproot a tree so Hulk breath knocking down a forest of trees should be many times that strong which he could use in combat.

Fine.

The reality remains the same, though: Only the smallest fraction of a punch's force really "gets" to Spider-Man. Pete's been demonstrating the ability to roll with Hulk's punches from the day of their very first battle.

Note that the difference in strength during this time, the 1960s, was such that a clean Hulk punch was thought likely to kill Spider-Man, not merely render Pete unconscious.

I think you also fail to realize how fast Spider-Man himself is.

Examine this showing of Spider-Man written roughly 20 years ago.

After you do, tell me seriously why any reader of Spider-Man before this present age had good reason to think Hulk should ever beat him based on speed.

Hulk's running speed is fast. Same as his punches or kicks.

But the reason streets dodge him is because of there agility speed which the Hulk lacks any agility speed. Plus most Street level characters are A-list in martial art/incredible fighters.

Hulk's punches to them and because of the size of his muscles are always telegraphed a mile away to them.

And add to that they they are incredibly fast in there own right like Cap, Slade, Batgirl and Daredevil. Bullet time feats and moving so fast they are not even noticed by regular eyes of others or moving like a blur in there own rights. etc etc.

look how happy he is. What a magical moment

well, hulk's speed has been getting something of a push (a small one, but still a push....) here is a recent showing:

if you take the gunslingers at their word that the bad guys were so quick as to be near invisible, that is a pretty amazing showing for hulk....

Not really. You missed a scan or two. When Hulk dropped in they stopped moving. Hulk was then allowed to attack them. Also they wasn't walking very fast as they didn't cover much ground in more than 10 seconds worth of talking. They were shooting fast and probably moving their hands/arms fast but they were walking at normal speeds.

But the reason why Hulk can run fast is because normal physical running has jumping in it.
As far as reactions, Hulk doesn't have quicker reactions than most top streetlevelers. Hulk can most likely punch faster though but his change of direction speed (agility speed) is probably not quite on par with street levelers. All in all he's about on par with a street by having faster running speeds and punching speeds but slowerl agility and slower reaction speeds.

him jibbing them is more of a factor. wolverine has speed feats that can make a debate with spider-man arguable, but his durability is what lets the writers have hulk tap his jaw. wolverine even explains the feeling of getting basically a concentrated earthquake the size of a basketball slammed into your grill piece:

Daredevil isn't allowed to get hit with that, it's in the contract

Looking back at it, that is quite the showing.

It didn't register at first because I'm so not used to thinking Hulk as a speedster. Not saying he is, but to blitz a group of guys moving so fast they basically can't be seen is highly impressive. At least in regards to any of Hulk's past speed feats.

i agree. the way he is swinging his arms to take them out looks almost spidey-esque. 😂
