First of all, the weight lifting is indicative of high level strength. I don't know why it wouldn't be.
I've explained in multiple threads why a high level of strength doesn't immediately mean a high level of striking power.
High level of strength = Physical attributes mainly
High level of striking power = experience and training

His punching of H'el is above mountain level. Everything but the narration screams that, and even the narration isn't saying what people are saying it is.
Uhm, no.

The narration states that he is delivering blows, which could topple mountains.

If this was Hulk, or Thor, people wouldn't be doubting it in the slightest.
Pre Gorr fight I wouldn't have argued that Thor would be able to come up with an insane striking power. Not even by putting him at the same level as Beta Ray Bill, who destroyed planets with his striking.
But during his fight with Gorr, Thor has cracked planets, which indicates an insane level of striking power, when he lets loose.
Superman was not holding back and his strikes were stated to be around mountain level, like it or not.
Now your logic would tell us, since Thor has been able to crack planets, he should be at least as strong as New 52 Superman, who was benchpressing the Earth's weight, but my logic tells us that Thor is an experienced warrior, who had centuries to learn how to strike properly and therefore he can inflict more damage than Superman.

Yes, Superman can easily press earth-weight for 5 consecutive days without pause, and without any sunlight to recharge him... Yet "mountain toppling" punches represent his absolute maximum output. ElOhEl.
Strength =/ Striking Power
Real life experience - you should consider it.
I know that it's different for comics, but when the new DC 52 comics actually support your take on it, feel free to prove me otherwise - for now you don't know what you're talking about.
The rest of your post is utter nonsense. You're either not paying attention at the narration or you are as long as it suits your needs - but that's not only your mistake but the one of nearly everyone on this board.
I've already spent too much time in this thread. I requested legit proof that Superman can dish out more damage than I've proven that he is capable off and every single one of you failed.
I'm not willing to listen to an argument, which sounds like this: "Well, it's clear that Superman can do more damage, but he always holds back!"
Every comic book character always holds back. Show me what he has done, when he is not holding back and I'll go with it. You didn't show me and you won't be able to do it, because new 52 Superman hasn't done more than delivering blows, which could topple mountains.
The Hyperions stomp, since they either have more damage output or more durability. It's that simple.
Have a nice day, brotatoes.
